User reviews

Excellent sauf si la vue baisse

Cet app toute simple est un moyen ludique de varier ses trajets.
Mais pour ceux dont le vue baisse (et à vélo !) il est difficile de distinguer la pointe de la flèche qui donne la direction, lorsqu'elle devient petite. Il faudrait la grossir, ou en changer la forme pour que la direction soit plus évidente, ou permettre de la grossir en tapant sur l'écran...

Technolo-ma-gie

Un bijou. Quand on pense que cette simple fonctionnalité était jusqu’ici réservée aux porteurs pressés de montres de jogging.

Excellent

Lâcher prise et liberté
