Really good advancements with Tabletop AR. Would love to see it come to visionOS for a more immersive experience.

Really good advancements with Tabletop AR. Would love to see it come to visionOS for a more immersive experience.

### 1/5 — Missing the basics for an international audience

*2025-03-21, version 3.0.18*

This app has so much and yet is missing the most important basic  - race times in your local Timezone. They need to look at F1s app and start from scratch for that element. There no point to a great VR experience if I don’t know when to watch the race. I don’t plan my calendar by a countdown timer telling me something is on in 4 days, 5 hrs and 30min.

The season calendar is bloated with glossy graphics and repeating levels of the same useless information. The “info” button doesn’t tell you race times, it just repeats the info you already have (race location and date). You can’t see them in your local (not track) time which is buried in the website, they’re not even on the app.

### 4/5 — iPad issues

*2025-02-07, version 3.0.15*

I used this app on both phone and iPad and it was fantastic on phone. Only problem however was when I tried watching a race on iPad, the button to direct to the race page didn’t seem to work. I hope this gets fixed but a fantastic app other than that.

### 1/5 — Useless app

*2025-01-19, version 3.0.15*

Sail Gp unwatchable. Can’t watch it on You tube tried the app for an I pad doesn’t work . Videos unavailable. Completely useless!

### 1/5 — Hopeless

*2024-11-23*

Incredible how every update only makes it worse driving real sailors away from this farce.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2024-11-22*

Slow to load. Difficult to avoid pointless pages when trying to get to updates. More often than no new stories have no text displayed. Freezes. All in all a disappointment given Sail GP is so high tech

### 1/5 — Dreadful

*2024-11-13*

Dreadful app. No calendar. No list of teams.

### 1/5 — What is the purpose of this?

*2024-10-30, version 3.0.12*

If you want to see what’s happening with SailGP don’t use this app.  It just does something with points (?).

### 1/5 — Does’t work

*2024-07-14*

Creating an account is required and it gets stuck loading during the creation process.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Useless.

*2026-07-27, version 3.0.30*

Trying to see the Day 1 scoreboard in Canada . Not there at all.
And to boot, not one website has an updated score. Is sailing actually invisible?

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2026-05-31*

I find it near impossible to get basic up to date news and info. There was nothing about the aborted racing in NY yesterday. You want to be the F1 of sailing. Copy that app.

### 1/5 — Where are the results?

*2026-05-31, version 3.0.30*

Try and find results from a recent race. Go on, try. It’s the most common searched topic for any sport, yet the App can’t show you, instead you get all this AI junk.

### 1/5 — Horrible app

*2026-02-22, version 3.0.29*

Who designed this dreadful app? They seem to be determined to ruin the ability to watch to races and determined to push the sailing community into paid alternatives. Shame, shame, shame.

### 1/5 — Worst sports app

*2025-11-29*

Difficult to navigate. Very little real information. Focused on selling expensive tickets in locations thousands of miles away. If sailGP received any sort of press coverage I wouldn’t bother at all.

### 1/5 — Help

*2025-11-03, version 3.0.26*

Need good information about the next race. 
Who is in & crew available? Not ticket news for LA California.   
E-mail is worthless.

### 1/5 — Downloaded to use at Portsmouth Event - failed on so many levels

*2025-07-21*

Where do I start? Wickedly over complicated and  kept asking me “did I want to buy tickets?” I’ve already got them. I wanted to see the course layout, even plonked in front of me it was unclear and they kept moving the marks. The app was useless for that. Then the “Augmented Reality” never worked, stalled told be the square root of nothing. I have more than enough wifi mobile data etc so it’s not my end failures.

Lastly be aware that the event is a massive boom bang let’s make some noise annoying even compèred by the most annoying woman in the world. She must have come from childrens’ TV she has that “happiness at all costs attitude”.

So yes the App was poor it is being unloaded as I speak. I’m unsubscribing from everything SailGP and blocking them left right and centre.

Truly I can’t recommend it. To end on a positive note the Grandstand view was very good, the spectacle fine without all the “hoo-rah”.

### 1/5 — App hasn’t worked on iPad for a year

*2025-07-10*

Every time the app is opened on an iPad, you receive the message “Unable to initialise”. Cannot access it using the iPad. People have been complaining about this for a year now. The last response to reviews by the developers was a couple of years ago. Maybe spend some time getting the basics right before adding new features.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2025-04-11*

Worked once and then never again. Couldn’t get back in, just showed an error message. Waste of time and effort.

### 1/5 — Absolutely Useless

*2025-04-10*

Can’t log in. Just get an error message every time. Reset password, uninstalled and reinstalled, and even set up a new account but nothing works. Ridiculous.

Love it  
Brilliant for watching the racing 
And the timers

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-06-04*

There are lots of information in the app. But in race the screen is too small. Please make it suitable for appleTV!

### 5/5 — Magic on the water

*2025-05-18, version 3.0.20*

Mastering the Elements

### 5/5 — Great sailing

*2025-02-08, version 3.0.17*

Looking forward to reviewing the highlights when they are loaded.

### 5/5 — Losing touch

*2024-12-19, version 3.0.15*

Both myself and my brother were extremely disappointed with not being able to see the start of the new season on utube
Unlike last year.

### 5/5 — News broken on new version

*2024-11-22*

Two big problems 
1. After reading a news article user is returned to top of news list, even if very deep in the list.  Most scroll all the way down again. Painful of catching up on old news. 
2.  After watching one of the video entries and returning to the news list, it is no longer possible to scroll through the new list - seems to be frozen.

### 5/5 — SailGp .. Innovative Sailing technology

*2024-11-10*

For  me SailGp  represents the latest technology innovation in foil sailing sports …. A platform for addressing all things  “powered by nature” from the use of  its solar power within the support teams and engineering F50’s enclosure to the provision of STE(A)M  education to students , provision of sailing pathways to youth and the Inspire program…and the teams  environment Impact League .   not forgetting the fun developing use of race “overlays” and for sure upcoming wind visualisation to viewers ..  and an awesome season ahead with the introduction of T foils, use of renewables  , hydrogen and or eco-fuels  and a revised and new team/crew  listing …. SailGp .. it’s the ultimate sailing sport for me …. A shout out to all at SailGp , presenters and support and not forgetting Marksetbot and the other innovative teams providing a great sailing event experience ! …….

### 5/5 — Making it fun!

*2024-08-28*

Sail GP app has so many activities and having a reward based program really keeps me engage about the sport, all its teams plus all the fantastic projects they do for our communities.

### 5/5 — Phil Thomas

*2024-06-22, version 3.0.10*
