User Reviews for WSDOT
Pass updates not timely
I really only use the app and the website both to check the pas conditions since that’s what affects me most - my daily commute right now depends on the status of Snoqualmie pass. I’ve realized that the app is sometimes hours late updating compared to the website which itself is usually updated after the AM radio station. I totally understand there being a little delay, but honestly for me this makes the app useless. Twice in the last two weeks I’ve left the house with the app and website saying pass is open and when I arrive less than 20 minutes later I find out it was closed all along.
Don't bother
This app doesn't do any more than show you Google traffic and provide some potentially useful - if inconsistent - features for ferry riders. They have an area for express Lane status, but as of this morning that hasn't been updated in two weeks. WSDOT is obviously just phoning in a performance on this one. Just when I think they can't get any worse, WSDOT demonstrates that their continuing slide into that black hole of ineptitude isn't over yet.
Very useful but not perfect
I live in the islands, commute to work on another island and use this app several times a week. When ferries are running on time, it’s very useful. When service is disrupted, the app becomes less useful. I agree with other reviewers that real time updates are needed. Also, the booth workers in Anacortes claim that the app is not reliable as far as quotas, which also seems like a gap that needs to be mended. The app still is very useful for making or altering reservations on the go, or checking to see how much space is left on the ferry you’re gunning for. Having the local numbers for ferry landings is a good back up as is knowing how to interpret Vessel Watch. The more fluent you become in “ferry”, the more useful the app becomes.
Add CarPlay support & Remove Ads!
This App would be more helpful if it supported use in CarPlay. Considering it’s illegal to use a mobile device/phone while driving in WA it’s entrapment that this app doesn’t support use through a car’s onboard systems. Most cars from Hondas to Fords to Toyotas and Audi and Volvo are just a few major brands that support CarPlay now. CarPlay support would make using this type of app safer AND legal while driving!
Needs late ferry info
It shouldn't be hard to see when the boat arrived on vessel watch. Knowing the boat is at the dock doesn't tell you if you have a chance to make it before it departs and whether to hurry or take your time. Please add this feature! The boat is rarely on time and this would be invaluable information for us bike and walk on passengers who have to look at the cameras, check email inbox, etc.
Needs work…
I use the ferry system daily for my work and home life. I used to be able to use the ferry related webpages for good information at the various terminals. But, much of the webpage information has been in flux and not working for a while. Had to get this app… very cumbersome to have to load and reload the information in order to know what’s happening for my departures and arrivals… app needs help in being user friendly.
Scam ads :(
This app has been very useful for those of us that use the ferry system daily, but I just can’t rate this as anything above the minimum due to the inclusion of ads into the app.The bottom bar of the app is used for displaying critical information on the main screen, but sub screens display ads in that same space. I just had an ad show up that indicated a critical notification from Washington state and when I tapped it, it wanted me to pay money to get the info. It was a total scam targeting Washington state citizens made possible by washington state giving the space to the scammers. There is no reason a publicly funded app should have ads included and it’s a disservice to the citizens to have them no longer able to trust the content displayed in the official Washington state apps. The ads must be removed so we can trust the app again. This is not acceptable.
Awesome App
I cannot speak on half of this app’s intended use. I use it primarily for ferry information (which has always been accurate and up-to-date for me). It gives schedules and availability, as well as a link to their site to reserve a ferry (if that terminal supports reservations). For me, this is an excellent app and I encourage others to try it as well!
Online tickets difficult
WSDOT wants us to buy ferry tickets online so as not to pass cash or credit cards but the app is very cumbersome for this. Tickets need to go to the wallet but you can’t do that. The app logs you out very quickly and it takes forever to get back in and navigate to your ticket. And no, in 2020 I don’t want to print out a pdf ticket.
Best App Ever!
This app is awesome! I only wish I'd have known about it sooner so I could've had it for longer. Used it on a friend's phone while on a trip and was excited to get back and put it on my phone. Really easy to use. I love the favorites feature. Five stars!
