Pros and cons of 511 Alberta app for iPhone and iPad

511 Alberta app good for

Great app. But shows same info as the mobile site. Just a shortcut right from your home screen so I dont have any complaints what so ever
You cant get a better app for driving in the winter in Alberta so happy I found this

Some bad moments

Great app BUT! It doesnt update road reports as often. Report of yellowed road, take caution two hours later freezing rain and no change in last report from 6am.
Has potential, and a good app for reporting current road conditions would be great. But in the interface, there are lots of places that lead to dead ends - you click to get information on something, and there is no "back" or "home" button concept, so the only way to get out is to forcefully quit the app and restart. What is the "GPS" button on the bottom supposed to do? It toggles between GPS and Stop, but doesnt show my position, or even bring up the iOS dialog asking if its OK. Also, I signed up as a "citizen reporter" (great idea!) and have been authorized, but havent figured out how to actually send reports in. Has potential to be useful, but could use quite a lot more polish than it has now.
