### 5/5 — Great App | Great Product

*2026-08-18, version 2.6.89*

I have 3 OW’s. Started with the Pint. Then went to the PintX and loved both. Then wanted speed and same range plus a bit more stability so I went for the GTS. My favorite to this day. I ride it before work, during lunch breaks and after work during twilight. I still have all three OW’s and can’t seem to let any of them go. I probably won’t ever ride the Pint again since I still have the PintX but it still has a place in my heart for introducing me to the FM life! Thanks for making this possible!!

### 4/5 — Good app needs some improvement

*2026-08-08, version 2.6.89*

The app works very well but it won’t load achievements and occasionally won’t load the leader board. One thing I’d like to see added is something to tell me when it’s time to do a cell balance on the battery.

### 5/5 — Great

*2026-08-05, version 2.6.89*

0 problems I have over 2000 miles on my pint and have not ran into a single problem

### 1/5 — Instead

*2026-07-11, version 2.6.89*

Instead of just turning the function off where it just cuts power to your board at high speeds, their solution is to make you watch 15  videos to warn you if you buy a Onewheel upgraded all to vesk get rid of everything that’s Onewheel essentially on the Onewheel

### 3/5 — Privacy and Notification is broken

*2026-07-05, version 2.6.89*

Getting ads for Onewheel products with no way to op out of it…. It’s annoying that this app needs to ask you to buy more of its products when you already own one. There is a setting for notifications, but tapping on it does nothing.

### 1/5 — A sad, derivative end

*2026-07-04, version 2.6.89*

This app actually started as the best third party Onewheel app, and was purchased and carefully adapted by Future Motion to suck as much as possible.

It also delivers spam notifications, which is in direct violation of app development guidelines.

### 1/5 — I was hospitalised from an accident from this board failure

*2026-06-27, version 2.6.89*

I was going along 35kph and this board just stopped working stopped self levelling which in turn threw me into the road. I require hospitalisation and surgery.  Be very careful with this board. It is dangerous. Onewheel were not helpful. And basically said there was nothing wrong with the board.

### 3/5 — Watch App needs fixing

*2026-06-24, version 2.6.89*

The app itself is pretty alright, but the Apple Watch companion app constantly loses connection, and the data like speedometer and ride distance freeze and don’t change.

### 1/5 — Trash

*2026-06-07, version 2.6.89*

Oversold like the device under my feet depreciating at an alarming rate

### 3/5 — Antic bike

*2026-06-03, version 2.6.89*

Guys I hate giving you the 3 star for the app because I love my new antic bike. But the quality of the app is so, so bad. I can’t connect or control my bike from it anymore, it thinks I have a one wheel. The ui is so bad. I know you guys didn’t focus on it or have it to a dev shop overseas. But this app is not what you would expect from a company based in California. Please do something. It simply doesn’t work
