iPhone 17 Pro Max scaling issue

There is a bug where the session name gets cut off the top of the screen. Would there be any way to solve this.

iOS functionality poor

I suggest you look elsewhere. I got this app and then when I discovered I needed to pay for the ability to view live race results, I thought that was fair and went for the annual subscription. Unfortunately this did not give me the ability to look at my lap times for the event that I was currently attending. It only showed me my most recent lap. It prompted another upgrade. Ok fine- I’ve come this far. But then, it wouldn’t allow the upgrade. I tried it on several different networks and at different times, but it would never allow the upgrade to Plus. Hopefully I can cancel this whole mess. A waste of time.

Thoughts

It’s 2026 and it’s a very outdated app

What a joke

The fact that I have to pay for the plus and it still doesn’t work is laughable. And it’s not just inaccurate or bad UI it’s a fun new issue every single time. Race hero was a 9/10 app and you killed it for this junk.
