What's New in Hoolan

Best app for tracking your kiting sessions!!

Been looking for an app to track my kiting sessions with data that helps me understand my progress, and this app does it beautifully! It’s a joy to use! They really thought of everything when putting this together!

Excellent

Excellent app. Easy to use. And superb customer support. If I have a new spot, I can request it from the app and they respond immediately.

Best wind watersports tracking app

Excellent app for tracking wind watersports. It’s reliable, simple to use, and gives very useful stats after every session. I’ve been using it for almost two years, and in my experience it performs much better than many paid apps that advertise themselves as the best in this category.

Great app with advanced stats

I’ve been using to measure my progress WingFoiling. I love seeing my jibe progression stats. Really keeps me motivated. Have had no issues using my Apple 6 watch and later uploading to Strava where I have a record of all my activities bike, hike, swim, eFoiling and now WingFoiling

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! Good news — we now have a Strava integration for our iOS app. You can upload your sessions directly to Strava from our app.

FAQ

What does Hoolan do?

Hoolan is a free app designed for kitesurfers, wingfoilers, and windsurfers. It allows users to track their sessions, analyze performance statistics, and monitor their progression over time. The app focuses on providing in-depth insights to help users improve their skills.

How does Hoolan track sessions?

The app exclusively uses smartwatches like Apple Watch or Garmin for tracking sessions. This is believed to offer the best on-water tracking experience. It records jumps, GPS tracks, speed, distance, and other data live on your watch, which then syncs to the iPhone app for detailed analysis.

What kind of statistics does Hoolan provide?

Hoolan offers advanced statistics on jumps (height, airtime, distance), runs (speed, upwind/downwind gain), and transitions (success rate, speed). It also tracks health data like max heart rate and calories burned, integrating with Apple Health.

Is Hoolan free to use?

The core functionality of Hoolan, including tracking and analysis, is free. However, the app does have in-app purchases, which may unlock additional features or content. The description mentions it is a FREE tracking and analysis app, but also lists 'free with in-app purchases' as the monetization model.

Can I use Hoolan for different wind sports?

Yes, Hoolan supports a wide range of wind sports. This includes various forms of kitesurfing (twintip, directional, foiling, land, snow), wing sports (SUP, foiling, snowboard, ski, skate), and windsurfing (strapped, strapless, foiling).
