Frequently asked questions
Where does the data come from?
All wait times are sourced directly from official government agencies: U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA).
Why does the wait time differ from reality?
Border wait times can change rapidly due to traffic patterns, staffing, and security events. The data reflects the most recent update from CBP/CBSA, but conditions at the border may have shifted since the last update.
How often does it refresh?
The app automatically refreshes data at regular intervals and can be manually refreshed anytime using pull-to-refresh. Update frequency depends on CBP and CBSA data publishing schedules.
Does it work for Mexico?
Yes. The app displays wait times for US-Mexico border crossings, using official CBP data for northbound travel into the United States.
Does it work for Canada-bound travel?
Yes. The app shows wait times for US-Canada crossings, including data from both CBP (for southbound) and CBSA (for northbound into Canada).
What does 'Update Pending' mean?
This status indicates that the border agency has not published updated information recently. It could mean the crossing is temporarily closed, experiencing technical issues, or awaiting a scheduled update.
What does 'Not Available' mean?
This means data for that particular crossing or lane type is not currently provided by the border agency's public feed.
