### 5/5 — Perfekt für unser Team

*2026-08-09*

Wir nutzen die App seit einiger Zeit für unser Drachenboot Team und sie erleichtert uns das Management sehr. Durch die Anwesenheitsplanung und die automatische Gewichtsverteilung kann das Training viel schneller beginnen. Auch die Aufzeichnungen können super leicht mit der Apple Watch importiert werden. Es kommen super schnell neue Funktionen hinzu und man merkt das die Entwickler genau wissen was wir brauchen.

**Developer response:** Danke für das positive Feedback 👍🏻😃

### 5/5 — Arbeitserleichternd

*2026-08-09*

Danke für diese tolle App. Genau so ein Tool fehlte mir! Die Bootseinteilung ist so easy und auch die unterschiedlich Einteilung für Regatten ist klasse! 
Es bleibt kein Geburtstag mehr unbeachtet…
Toll wäre es, wenn eine Person, die sich kurzfristig vom Training  abmeldet, gleichzeitig auch aus der angefertigten Bootseinteilung „herausfliegt“.

**Developer response:** Danke für das Feedback. Dafür wird es bald eine Lösung geben 👍🏻

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.2.23 — 2026-08-28

New map engine: all maps are now drawn as crisp vector maps – sharp at every zoom level, and labels stay readable while the replay camera rotates. Plus three fresh styles: Dragonboat, Light and Dark (the rarely used satellite style has been removed). Also: the team treasury now shows the reason you entered for a fine (e.g. “Drinks”), and when entering race times the keyboard finally has a colon – or simply type seconds (131.92).

### 1.2.22 — 2026-08-26

New recording screen: big values that stay readable in bright sunlight instead of a map – the display stays on while recording, and your battery lasts longer. Your route is still fully recorded and shown on the map afterwards as usual. GPS list: the preview shows your track with a scale bar, now with a place name – suggested as the title when you save. The list now opens with “Last 30 days”. Also fixed: duplicate calendars in calendar sync.

### 1.2.21 — 2026-08-22

New: laps as precise as your watch, with warm-up, active and rest markers. Plus a franker lean warning for your boat line-up – and the app starts noticeably faster.

### 1.2.20 — 2026-08-19

Better readability: labels and icons now have much stronger contrast – especially outdoors in bright sunlight. New after creating a team: invite your paddlers right away with a share button and a short video guide. Not in a team yet? You'll now see where to get the invite code. Fix: the top speed of watch recordings (Garmin/Apple Watch) attached to a team training now matches your watch. Plus smaller improvements.

### 1.2.19 — 2026-08-18

Recurring trainings: changes like a new start time can be applied to all upcoming sessions – RSVPs are kept. Both-sided paddlers can set a preferred side. Carpools: post a ride request and drivers add you with one tap. Plus smaller improvements and bug fixes.
