## Review summary

Users repeatedly report that Overdrive 2.6 is hindered by connectivity and compatibility problems, crashes, and progression save issues, causing it to fail as a reliable companion to hardware. Many feel the paid replacement app bricks functionality on modern devices and dislike the removal of legacy support, though some nostalgia and limited core racing fun remain when it works. The top recurring themes are pairing/sync failures, device compatibility, stability, progress saving, and the monetization controversy.

### Pros

- Core racing gameplay is enjoyable when the app works, including multiplayer or AI modes.
- Version 2.6 preserves the original storyline, which some users prefer over later iterations.
- Nostalgia value and potential for family bonding among fans of Anki Overdrive.

### Cons

- Frequent connectivity/pairing and syncing problems with cars and devices (cars won\\'t connect, can't pair with others, scan track crashes).
- Poor compatibility with newer iOS devices or removal of legacy support; Fast & Furious edition cars often not supported on 2.6.
- Recurring crashes and stability issues (app crashes when tapping scan; various glitches).
- Progress saving issues (tournament progress not saved, login issues, badges not saved).
- Monetization complaints: paying for the replacement app after owning hardware; lack of legacy support.
