## What is Skate Navigator?

Do you ever make rides with your skateboard, longboard, inline skates or roller skates? 
This is exactly the app you were looking for!

Details:

What separates skaters from runners en cyclists is the influence of the surface of the roads that you ride over.  When the conditions of the road are bad (bumpy, old, damaged etc.) there’s not much fun in exercising.

SkateNavigator uses Google Maps combined with GPS-tracking, so all of the information considering your workout that other similar apps provide will be also available in SkateNavigator. 
On top of that, SkateNavigator is the first app that offers the possiblity to add ratings to the roads that you used during your workout that will be shared with all the users of this app. As a result of this, an entire network of rated roads will develop that will make skating so much more fun and safe.

Functions:

Workout information
- speed (average speed, top speed, lowest speed)
- duration; distances
- inclination
- calories

Route information
Each and every single road that you can skate upon can be rated by users. You can rate separate segments of roads by giving a rate from 1 to 5. A rating of ‘1’ represents the worst kind of surface to skate upon; a rating of ‘5’ represents the best surface possible.

Each time you have completed a workout, the app will ask you to rate the segments of the route you have ridden. You can do this by appointing 1 to 5 stars to differents segments of the route. 

You simply appoint a starting point and an end point by tapping your screen and rate as many segments of your route as you wish. You can do this right after you’re done skating, but you can also add ratings later on your desktop on our website.
After your workout you can you see a summary of your workout results on the map:
-	the route you have ridden
-	average speed per segment. Different averages are shown by different colours (red, orange and green)
-	the existing ratings on the route
-	the segments that have yet to be rated
The app will ask users to rate segments of the route that are not yet rated and to check if the currently appointed ratings are still correct.

Note: Using GPS features of this app can significantly affect your device's battery life.

### 1/5 — Sad

*2023-04-05*

Sounded great! But can’t even register…

### 1/5 — App discontinued?

*2022-06-20*

It used to be great, but now I can't do anything with the app anymore. I can't change my profile, can't see routes (mine or public ones) and recording something doesn't seem to work either.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t download workout route

*2022-05-01, version 1.1.2*

Profile won’t upload (wifi or cellular) and workout routes don’t download or calculate distance and time when workout over.

### 1/5 — Never could log in

*2022-03-28, version 1.1.2*

Tried to use this many times over several months every time I tried to register or login it gave me an error message even though my iPhone XR is updated. Unusable

### 1/5 — Wouldn’t let me make an account

*2021-07-30, version 1.1.2*

I’ve been trying to make an account through my email or facebook but it just doesn’t work. Others say that it doesn’t let you log in either. And you can’t access much on this app without having an account… so it’s basically useless

### 1/5 — Can’t even use the app!

*2021-04-12*

It won’t even let me register. It says oops can not connect to server. Internet and data are perfectly fine.  Wish I could have at least given an honest opinion about the app.

### 1/5 — disappointing

*2021-03-29, version 1.1.2*

Concept and capabilities are great, but not worthwhile if the app doesn’t let you review your ride

### 1/5 — Can’t even get in to the app

*2021-01-12, version 1.1.2*

The app won’t accept any of the ways i try to register. I restarted the app a few times and it happens every time.

### 1/5 — Wish this wasn’t an orphan!

*2020-09-30, version 1.1.2*

This app is so cool and amazing potential, and clearly on earlier systems worked great! But now I just get error messages and super slow processing. I would love for the developers to update this app!

### 2/5 — Logging routes

*2020-08-20, version 1.1.2*

I was super excited to find this app as I skate frequently. The past 2 weeks, each route I have tracked have not been saved to my routes. I’m extremely disappointed today because I was so proud of my distance, but I’ll have no idea how far I push myself today because it continues to have we’re when finishing your you’re.
