ABRP V7.1.8 Live traffic quality is poor
iPhone 18 Pro iOS 26.6
I use ABRP Premium with Live Traffic. I have the automatic settings switched on, so real-time traffic is also switched on.
The live traffic quality of ABRP is really poor (in Germany), I mainly drive in Bavaria. Every day that I drive 83km to work, I would like to use ABRP exclusively in rush hour traffic, but since the accuracy of the traffic jam information is abysmally bad compared to Apple Maps (and Google Maps), I am forced to switch to Apple Maps every 5 to 10 minutes during the journey to find the best route with the least traffic jams and delays, and then back to ABRP.
The duration of the delay due to traffic jams and heavy traffic is sometimes estimated by ABRP to be up to 17 minutes shorter than is reality and as correctly displayed by Apple Maps or Google Maps.
For a distance of 32km, ABRP shows 33 minutes of travel time (screenshot #1), whereas Apple Map shows a realistic 50 minutes (screenshot #2), a difference of 18 minutes, and Google Maps shows also realistic 49 minutes (screenshot #3).

Unfortunately, my question about the service provider for LiveTraffic wasn't answered at the time, so I'm asking it again: Which service provider is used for the live traffic data in Germany?
Unfortunatly the quality has not been improved since nearly 2 years!
Does ABRP plan to significantly improve the quality of its live traffic data so that it is at least roughly as good as that of Apple Maps and Google Maps? @Bo (ABRP) What is the plan in this regard?
- Where does this happen?
- ABRP version number (found at bottom of settings menu)
