Repeated complaints include frequent crashes and difficulty connecting to bikes, persistent blank/black/white screens, and inaccurate or delayed sync of ride data. Many users feel the app is neglected and not updated, with support and premium features sometimes unavailable. A minority report working setups on specific bikes, but the consensus is that stability, data accuracy, and ongoing development need attention for long-term value.
