### 2/5 — Could be better…

*2023-02-08, version 5.2.1*

I’d be more likely to use this app if you could sync it with Garmin & Suunto GPS Watches in the same way Strava does so all activities are automatically uploaded

### 4/5 — Not the most intuitive, but stable with great functionality

*2023-01-22, version 5.2.1*

Comprehensive way to log your paddles, with neat features that support development of your paddle career.

I have no problems with this app.

### 1/5 — Total garbage

*2021-05-02, version 5.1.0*

A waste of time adding entries and saving them as they disappear when logging in again even following instructions on support page. 
Total garbage.
