### 1/5 — Don’t Bother

*2020-03-08, version 3.1*

Unable to search, unable to change locations. This app is broken and doesn’t function properly. It should be removed from the App Store.

### 1/5 — Nothing works

*2019-10-20, version 3.1*

Super frustrating... nothing opens. It won’t even find my location.

### 1/5 — Never seems to work

*2019-03-09, version 3.1*

I’ve downloaded this twice now and both times extreme frustration had me delete the app in short order.

### 1/5 — Not updated

*2019-01-03, version 3.1*

Why is it showing me nothing for 2019 and only races long done in 2018

### 1/5 — 👎🏻

*2017-12-09, version 3.1*

When you click on upcoming races it is never updated! The majority of the races are already long over.

### 2/5 — Good potential, bad app

*2016-05-30, version 3.1*

I got the paper guide and it really good. The app, meh.... The paper guide provide more information therefore more useful, one of the few instance where I prefer paper over digital. Even just an interactive PDF would be mile ahead of the app...

### 1/5 — Close to useless

*2015-11-30, version 3.1*

Deeply frustrating experience. Cannot find events, when it does they aren't in the area you're looking for.

### 3/5 — Canadian!

*2015-10-25*

Thought it would offer both USA and Canada but NOOO!!

Seems to have a good interface. Maybe they will add US eventually.

### 1/5 — Would be great if it was user friendly

*2015-10-20, version 3.1*

This app is not user friendly. It's too bad because it would be a great resource!

### 2/5 — Needs improvement

*2015-01-17, version 2.0.2*

Back button when searching through races is a must. Also when searching for upcoming I was given races last year. Not helpful
