Garbage

It frequently fails to work

Out of 100 sessions 31 failed to record anything but time from my Apple ultra 2 watch

Great app for kayakers

Really nice way to track your outings and sign up for monthly challenges to encourage you to get out on the water. Give it a try!

Simply Useful Paddle App

With a new kayak and quick (7 minute) lake access, paddling has been added to my upper body workout plan. Tracking progress without a dedicated app on my iPhone linked to my Apple Watch proved less than satisfactory. Lots of reviews required the download of a few best rated apps for comparison. It didn’t take long to discover how convenient Paddle Logger was for a 70 year old, non-tech friendly guy. I’m still in the free mode, gathering more experience with the data collection process. That said, I have run across a glitch I couldn’t resolve. The help info on the app was useful for eliminating what wasn’t the problem.

Yesterday I sent a help request to resolve the glitch. I am impressed with how quickly the support team (Thank you, Holly) responded to my email. They are currently reviewing the Bug Report and screenshots to understand from whence my problem lies. Once resolved I will be purchasing the Pro version to access all the nerdly data available. Yes, I am confident the team will make me happy. FYI - this review was human generated. 😂

Do Not Spend Money on this App!!!

This app does not work correctly most of the time. I bought a yearly subscription to this app thinking it would work. For the amount of money I spent, I would expect it to work much better. Don’t waste your money on this

Mr Ekins

Won’t let me add contact, select apple data synch

Unhappy with changes

Too many false alarms freaking out my wife


Though the app provides lots of data pertaining your performance, I primarily use it for the GPS tracking and notifications.
I typically paddle in the ocean and tidal rivers by myself. This app gives my wife peace of mind knowing where I am and that I’m not in trouble.

A “Must Have” App!!!

I absolutely LOVE the Paddle Logger app! I started getting into kayaking and SUP end of Jan 2024. Someone suggested that I download this app. I love seeing how many sessions that I have logged, the split times, the mileage I’ve logged, the route that it displays I took, safety features I have access to (contacting others if I don’t return from a scheduled trip) etc.! I’ve been able to beat my 1 mile race time, time & time again and have pushed myself to hit certain mileage goals per trip. If you’re interested in all of the above, you must download this app! Happy paddling!

Apple Watch Stuck on KM

Emailed support several times to fix this issue and never heard back from them.

dreadful

not at all intuitive, despite paying a lot of money for subscription support do not respond. I just can’t work out how to log manually, how to edit stuff. I consider this app to be an absolute waste of money.

Great app.. Except

Overall, I enjoy using this app. I moved over from PaddleWays and have used this ever since. My biggest problem with this app is the end-of-session button. Twice now I’ve hit the distress button, causing unnecessary stress for the people on my call list. There should be a clear button on the app to end the session away from the emergency button. It’s not well laid out. Please fix.

Update 7/14/26
The App developer contacted me, stating they are working on an update to the distress button location. Thank you for responding! I will continue to use this app and look forward to the update.

False alarm

For some reason reason probably users error. Set off alarm, worrying family. Don’t understand why.

I love it

The app is perfect for route tracking and logistics, I highly recommend it

HELPFUL CRITIQUE

Add interval workout options, try and cater more to heart rate zone trainings and not just trying to get good times for your paddles, if this was a all around paddling workout app it would have more potential for a lot of paddler to choose this app for all there paddling needs

Too many permissions

I just want to use the app like I have for the past 9 years. I don’t want to type in my health. The app will not work. I just want to hit GO

Leider keine Speicherung der Kalorien und somit Bewegungsringe in Apple Heslth

Das Workout enthält 722 kcal Aktivitätsenergie. In Health erscheint das Workout. Beim Öffnen von „Aktivitätsenergie insgesamt“ steht jedoch „Keine Daten“, und die Kalorien werden nicht in der täglichen Aktivitätsenergie berücksichtigt.

Response from developer

Hi there, please reach out to us via Help & Support so we can look into this further. It may be that there are some additional permissions that need granting in order for the calorie data to sync to Apple Health.

Love it!

It does every thing I need and want it to do and more. Shows the path we went on a Google map along with the speed color code. Time, distance plus more.

Helpful support

I had an issue caused by myself cancelling a trial. They were able to sort it out for me and get me back on track. Thank you.

Use

Irritating as all get out. I cannot get my iWatch or iPhone to cease the damn app. It’s dangerous. I risk falling in the water and hitting my head on rocks trying to cease the damn app
