Excellent, useful app

This is a simple yet very thoughtfully implemented app that I have found very useful on numerous occasions. Highly recommended!

Sailer

Very accurate when I compare to metered speedometers

Beautiful and simple app

Every time I open this app my first reaction is, how beautiful it is. I would love the option to add more contrast and I’m sorry to say a white background with black lettering.

Doesn’t work in background

Doesn’t work when screen is closed

Excellent but!

It’s a shame the display can’t be in a horizontal position.
In the race yacht there is not enough room for the iPad to be positioned vertical.
