User reviews

Super App

Die App funktioniert richtig gut. Super, dass man nicht erst langwierige Dateneingaben hinter sich bringen muss. Ich habe die App auf einem kurzfristig gemieteten Boot runtergeladen und konnte direkt starten während ich schon Schot und Pinne in der Hand hatte!
Was fehlt, ist eine funktionierende Anbindung an die Apple Watch. Die von Apple zur Verfügung gestellt Version funktioniert nicht mit dieser App!
