Starting in Southeast Missouri

Know the road before it knows your suspension.

Sucky Roads turns ordinary drives into an anonymous, continuously updated map of rough pavement, recurring bumps, and probable potholes.

No tapping while driving. Your phone does the measuring.

Map warming up. Real road readings arrive with the Android beta.

Crowdsourced road intelligence

One bump is a clue. Ten matching bumps are evidence.

The app accounts for speed, phone orientation, GPS accuracy, and repeat detections before a location earns a bad-road rating.

1

Drive normally

With permission, the app measures road movement in the background.

2

Confirm the pattern

Matching readings from separate drives distinguish road trouble from a dropped phone.

3

Improve the map

Road scores update as conditions worsen, crews make repairs, and drivers return.

The first Android drives begin in Southeast Missouri.
