User Reviews
Pros
- Apple Watch support with a reliable timer on the wrist for regatta starts.
- Accurate start timing with gun-sync to zero seconds.
- Free to use, with Apple Watch support and useful racer-oriented features.
- Good cross-device synchronization between iPhone and Apple Watch.
- Racer-focused design including audio signals and practical timing tools.
Cons
- Unwanted reopening/persistent app on Apple Watch and iPhone after finishing; hard to keep it closed.
- Inability to fully shut off the timer; persists on device and distracts when not racing.
- Frequent glitches: countdown display freezes on the watch and other features are unstable or hard to use.
- UX issues: features buried in menus, unclear descriptions, and confusing Gold/Silver tiers.
- GPS/map reliability concerns and updates occasionally fail or show blank maps.

i love this app, but when i hit finish and close the app, i don’t want it magically reopening and hijacking my watch and phone.
i force close the app? doesn’t matter, it just loads up again even though i’m miles away from the water.
the alerts, the syncing, readouts… i love it all. just please stop with the unwanted reopening of the app.
add a button that says something like “done racing for the day?” and the app stays closed until the next time i open it.
it’s so annoying i’ve deleted app until this is fixed. this unwanted feature broke me. i’m done

I used this a couple of years ago so I could count down the time for race starts and it worked well and it was free so expectations matched. Just purchased a silver subscription expecting a distance and time to the line. I also expected to be able to drive by Race Committee boat and pin of the line and ping each end but was surprised to find out those functions were not in my subscription. This is potentially a 5 star app if pinging the line, distance and time to line were included. Unfortunately they are not with silver subscription. Please include those functions and it would be a great inexpensive app for every weekly sail boat racer. I would pay for the gold subscription at $2.99 a month but am afraid I won’t get what I need and it will be too late once I’ve already paid. Therefore, I recommend a 7 day free trial so subscribers can test out the functions before fully committing to paying monthly or quarterly. Again, great potential and a large number of boats with antiquated chart plotters need your app. I look forward to seeing it developed fully.
