Horrible app

Horrible app not updated in 3 years. Numerous sync issues and display issues. Developer ignorance.

Seriously needs updated

I tried using this app way out in the Alaska wilderness with no cell signal on my spot x recently and it wouldn't connect to my device. I restarted the app and it logged me out. I tried to log back in and it needed cell service to do so. What a useless app. My spot x works on its own pretty well but the keyboard is really glitchy so I figured the app would be a nicer way to type. Turns out it wont even work. While I am in the app (when in cell range) the screen doesnt align wilt my iphone 14 pro properly. The back button is almost completely unusable. It takes like ten taps to get it to work. I bought this device because I liked the idea of having redundancy in case my phone breaks or the device keyboard breaks. Turns out only one of those scenarios will work out for me. If this doesnt get updated I’m going to switch over to zoleo or garmin. At least their apps work.

Absolutely useless

This app designed to give all the functionality if the spot x BUT only works when you have internet!!! So I want to ask the developer if I have internet, why should I connect to spot and use SOS on the app? Really why?

Does not work with iPhone 15

This app is 2 years old The “back” button in the top left corner is unusable on the iPhone 15 so you get stuck in every page and have to force close

Hey spot, any feedbackOn improvement ideas?

I previously used the spot GEN three.

You were slow to improve your functionality, so I went to GARMIN way. Have an INREACH mini 2.

I’m thinking of moving back to spot for the SPOT X, but it doesn’t look like spot is doing anything to improve the interface with the app. So I am on the fence.

What do you plan on doing to improve things spot?

Abandoned

This app has been abandoned by the developer. It does not fit properly on modern iPhone screens. Specifically, you are unable to use the navigation controls because of their location on the screen. Very sad that a hardware device is practically unusable because this application has been abandoned.

Garbage

Completely useless!!!

Abandoned App

The app header is not visible on modern phones - it's not usable on any modern iPhone. Sadly it's clear the developers do not care about this app anymore.

Constant Crashes. Incomplete product.

Unusable on iPadOS v17.2. App crashes on login attempt.

On iOS 17.2, the app loads, sign in works, but Bluetooth scanning doesn’t.

The macOS app from the 1800’s continues to be the only way to sync and update the device.

With these flaws, the SPOT X Bluetooth and its suite of companion apps are all incomplete products.

Useless

Will not connect to device or remain connected unless also connected to the internet. Entirely defeats purpose of the Spot device. Sync function does not work. No recent upgrades or bug fixes: app appears to have been abandoned. Also, the Spot X device is buggy and clunky. No recent firmware updates: appears to have been abandoned. There are far better options out there. Try Zoleo or inReach.
