### 5/5 — Great TSD timing app

*2026-07-15, version 1.32*

I have used it for at least 6 years and it works great! Recently started using external GPS to improve the accuracy of my phone location. When people say it isn’t accurate, it is usually Rally Master checkpoint misplacement

### 5/5 — Greatest TSD timing and scoring app.

*2026-07-15, version 1.32*

Times accurately and gives immediate feedback. The TA function works slick. Any errors we have seen leads to user error, rally mater error, not the APP itself. We have used it a lot since 2019

### 1/5 — Atrocious app

*2026-04-12, version 1.31*

This app is used in TSD rally. It does not work well and will only record 20% of the checkpoints and invalidate your run/race.

### 3/5 — Great Potential!

*2025-08-17, version 1.28*

The app is simple and basic…from the looks of the participants side. (Can’t comment on the TSD course designers perspective.) Next time I use it, I’d like to see the cell reception on the settings page. Not on the main screen, where I can do nothing with the information. In its place put my updated place (example: “5th of 22”). Bonus if it can offer feedback to improve the next segment. The voice/tone didn’t sound after the first couple segments.

### 3/5 — No sound

*2021-04-26, version 1.19.1*

The app seems to work except for on iPhone 10 & 12 check points that are recognized & displayed on the screen play no sound.  Cannot find reason.

### 5/5 — Perfect app for its purpose!

*2020-05-09, version 1.14*

Excellent design and execution. It’s perfect for TSD rallies. Really nicely done!

### 3/5 — Great app but maybe too buggy

*2020-02-19, version 1.10*

Used this app for the first time in a TSD Rally. Seems to work fine. 
For some reason one checkpoint was not “discovered” by the app as we passed it on course. That leg was missing so it gave us maximum penalty points. The next leg, because the last leg had no “finish”, also gave us maximum penalty points and was listed in the app as NA. The rally master said he had never seen that before. Not certain why that leg didn’t register. Other contestants had no issues.
