### 5/5 — Key West

*2023-07-15*

Very useful when riding drunk

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2019-08-16*

The only “fix” I’d make is to reduce the touch field when in red blinking mode. It’s really sensitive and flips back to a disclaimer screen too easy. Otherwise I’m crazy happy with the app. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Life saver

*2016-08-26*

No more worrying when I'm riding my bike!
