Colorado Traffic Cams does not just download sections of CDOT’s public web site. Our app pulls live CDOT data streams which include many additional features that our competition does not include. Future releases will incorporate additional features which are only available directly from CDOT.
PLEASE NOTE: We (and all other competing iPhone apps) receive data directly from CDOT. There are infrequent times when CDOT does not transmit data in a timely manner. This may cause cameras, road conditions and signs to be out of date. When these events occur, typically it is short lived with a duration of less then 10 mins. We have added a time stamp solution to better flag old CDOT data to users. Be assured we are passing all CDOT data to you as fast as we can get it.
Please use the refresh button in the upper right corner to ensure you have the latest conditions.

Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Individual cameras may be inoperative because of maintenance, weather conditions or various other failures.

Pros and cons of Colorado Traffic Cams app for iPhone and iPad
Colorado Traffic Cams app good for
There really is an app for that! This is a great app very well written and does exactly what you want. Thank you!
Perfect. Does exactly what it says great. Now I can plan my day!
This is a perfect app for those times when Colorado is going through its rapid weather changes and you need to know what to expect along your entire route. I didnt buy it for this but it has even been helpful as I try to get the motorcycle out as much as I can. Well done app! Add "motorcycle" to your keywords while were still in spring and youll create even more happy customers!
Awesome app, if you travel or commute Colorado freeways you need this app. Thanx
Need a longer play time on the streaming camera locations and get a real live feed, along with the new cameras recently added on the cdot site added on this app! But otherwise love the app!!!
I never review apps, but this one is ace for anyone who commutes in CO, should be really handy in the winter too, I can stop trying to guess if its snowing on the other side of Eisenhower :-)
Some bad moments
Went to several locations and the pictures do not update. Come back and same car still in frame. In some cases you get a night view in the daytime but the time stamp shows the current time which is well after sunrise. I do not think it is the cameras as the problem is at numerous locations. It would be a great app if you could depend on accurate and timely road images. Needs work!
This app is never updated. Twice in two weeks I have made decisions to travel hwy 285 because app said road was dry, it was wrong. This morning at 6am it said Red Hill and Kenosha passes were dry. It snowed last night and they were a sheet of ice with one wreck on Kenosha due to bad conditions. Really bad source of real time road conditions for those of us who travel mtn hiways.
Well, I once again thought that paying for an app made me safe from push ads. Not here! Notice also the deceptive advertising - its not possible to tell from the screen shots that you pay for the app, AND you get ads pushed until and after you pay. Why the deciption?
Author, I hope it was worth a buck to loose a customer you already had. Im sure your advertisers feel the same way.
Discontinued in disgust. Will not be caught again by this company.
My wife sat in road closure on I-70 at Georgetown for two hours and this app never updated to show any problem. Save the trouble and go to cotrips.org to get update from CDOT. The developers of this need to try doing something useful with their lives and time.
After spending .99 on this, where you can get this data for free it crashes! Needs a lot of work...I cant believe I am forced to click something 3 TIMES to see a camera. Dont quit your day job.
1st. Its not video feed it is just a pic of the traffic. Hard to judge how fast traffic is moving with a pic.
2nd. It always shows pics 10 and 20 mins old. A lot can change in 10 minutes during rush hour.
3rd. Most mornings it cant connect to ANY cameras. So pretty pointless.
4th. I will look at it and see hardly any traffic somewhere and when I get there 2 minutes later it will be a parking lot. It lies sometimes
