No traffic conditions in notification center.

I think it learns where you go. For me, I work in lots of different places, so it knows how long it'll take me to get home but not so much going to work.
 
Are you connected to WiFi or Cellular Data? I'm only running iOS7 on my old iPhone 4s, it's not displaying the traffic, but I can't hook to cellular to find out if that makes a difference.

Maybe one of you can test and see if it makes a difference?

I'm connected to both on and off throughout the day, connected to wifi at work and at home, otherwise not...ill turn off wifi for the day and see if it makes a difference

No change, huh? Are you on an iP5? Weird how it's still not working for me on this old 4s of mine.

yup, on a 5....yea, i have restored to clean beta 3 a couple times ...has never shown up. showed up on beta 2 though.

looked in frequent location history, have red dots etc....all my addresses are set etc......just nothing...
 
Mines works now; how long to get to work; back home; even the gym which I go once in a blue moon ( maybe it lets me know how long to get home from anywhere )

It will take going back and forth a few times between two frequent locations to get it to show up...and even during Beta 1 it didn't always show.

I turned off frequent locations because I felt like it was burning through battery.

Just so you know, frequent locations uses up very little battery (assuming there isn't a bug in the beta causing it to use more than normal).

Apple's description of the significant location change service.

Gathering location data is a power-intensive operation. It involves powering up the onboard radios and querying the available cell towers, Wi-Fi hotspots, or GPS satellites, which can take several seconds. Leaving the standard location service running for extended periods can drain the device’s battery. (The significant-change location service drastically reduces battery drain by monitoring only cell tower changes, but the service works only on devices with cellular radios.) For most apps, it is usually sufficient to establish an initial position fix and then acquire updates only periodically after that.

I've used this on my iPhone 5 for a long time, and I haven't noticed a difference in battery between when it is off, and when it is on. I use Google Now, which uses the significant location change continually, and battery life is basically the same.
 
Updated to beta 4 yesterday, went to clear my NC center just now, and look what I found :eek:

I always get traffic when i'm way from my house. It never displays when I'm sat in my house. Weather sometimes disappears but always returns.

Maybe the gym directions are a subtle hint! :D
 
My history has also gone missing. It was there yesterday, and today when I went to check, poof, gone.
 
My iphone 5 today view toggles has Next Destination instead of Traffic conditions. Whats up with that?
 
have yet to see traffic conditions/estimated time to home/work since updating to GM iOS7 release on my iPhone4S last week. Was working great in the beta releases - miss it, very handy. So anyone know how to jog the thing back to order? I have amassed lots of frequent location points but still no "right now..." updates in NC ;-(

It took me a few weeks on Beta 5 to get traffic updates, but I've gotten none since upgrading to the GM. I figure it'll take a couple more weeks for them to start showing up again.
 
Any idea how many frequent location data points are needed before the NC starts advising? I have about 6 work and 15 home trips in my frequent locations history currently but still no updates in NC
 
Been running ios 7 since the GM and I have yet to see any traffic info. Apple should provide some information about this... Addresses are added into my calendar events, and frequent locations are also enabled. Weird :/ Notification center is as useful/less compared to ios 6
 
docent work for me either. But it does seem like a cool feature. Only thing I can think of is it takes several weeks for the phone to get to know your travel patterns, etc.

It would be nice if Apple posted a tutorial on this. It would clear up a lot of users'
confusion.
 
It works for me. In the morning before or while I'm heading to work it shows on my today screen. I imagine it would so the same on the way home as you can look at your history and it shows all the locations you hit.

The problem I have is remembering that its there because I'm not sure its really useful for me.
 
Works for me. In the mornings, my phone tells me it will take me 25 minutes to drive to work under current traffic conditions, in the afternoon it tells me it takes 35 minutes to drive home. You need to populate your frequent locations first for the phone to understand your schedule and what to suggest as your destination and the traffic conditions.

By frequent locations do you mean the address of the locations on the calendar?

I cant get this to work for me either.
