Easy to use.
2024-02-25	Bi*****	It is ok, but very limited. There is no way to smooth the playback data so the speed and bearing numbers jump around too much to be useful for post-race analysis. No way to export the data.

2022-10-12	Da*****	The app looks like it ticks all the boxes for functionality but it stops tracking after 5 mins. Can't get it work reliably. The app isn't intuitive to use in setting up races and viewing results as you have to find displays hidden under various menu options. If these issues could be fixed it would be a winner.

2022-04-09	St*****	New version worked quite well but still stopped tracking for no apparent reason. Samsung S9, Android 10, tracker 3.8.2. Phone was plugged in to power, app left open. Power was set to "optimize ". Stopped tracking after about two hours. Started tracking again 6 hours later- I unlocked the phone then to make a call but did nothing else to the app. Kept tracking from then till I shut it down. Could you give a notification that tracking had stopped?

2022-04-06	Wa*****	Worked perfectly for our Blackline Patos Island Race April 2-3 2022. With over 40 boats tracked, using Android devices versions 9, 10, 11 and 12. Also appears to work well with android 7. Huge thanks to the KWINDOO team, as well as our race sponsors Blackline Marine Inc and UK Sailmakers Northwest Loft!!!

2022-04-05	Ro*****	Doesn't work on Android. Updates hopefully coming? Big clashes with battery optimization settings. UPDATE: Well done guys, all systems now work seamlessly on Android 12. Tracker is easy to use and a great tool for the fleet. LiveView is also an easy to use complement.
