### 1/5 — Not worth the money

*2026-04-25*

This app rarely works

### 1/5 — Dont Renew

*2025-05-19*

Renewed this year will not update. Last update 25 weeks ago and will not Locate.

### 1/5 — Waste of time and money, nothing works

*2024-11-20*

This app has been terrible and continues to be terrible.  App developer responses always say we’re going to update this or that, but nothing changes.  This is fraud to even charge a fee to use this app.  I canceled after my “free” worthless period ran out. NOT RECOMMENDED!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Function Right

*2024-02-25*

The app doesn’t look or function as advertised. It’s been almost a year of having the paid Ride Command service and it has NOT worked properly since subscribing. I had a trouble ticket open and was informed it was potentially an app issue. I’ve waited for updates and still am having issues. It hardly ever shows the Slingshot’s location. Rides aren’t always tracked and when they are they don’t sync properly. It does not show a photo of your selected model the way it’s advertised to do. If it worked properly and actually looked the way you guys advertised then I would give a better rating.

### 2/5 — Can’t see location

*2023-06-17*

I paid for the annual service to see my location and I’ve seen it a couple times live and it hasn’t updated in 3 weeks currently and the map disappeared.

**Developer response:** Hello, thank you so much for leaving feedback. We just released a new version for the app today and it should fix this issue. Please do reach out back to us if this doesn't solve your issue. If it does, we request to please update your ratings. Thank you so much for being our valued customer

### 5/5 — Ride Command

*2023-05-27*

Great app to use for our slingshot!

### 1/5 — Was good but not anymore

*2022-09-02*

Used to work and show ss info, but now it doesnt show anything

**Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for letting us know you are encountering this issue. This was supposed to be fixed in the new release, but some users are still having problems. We are urgently working on resolving the issue and will be releasing an app update as soon as possible. Thank you for your patience.

### 4/5 — Ride command …. Not bad

*2022-07-09*

Using Ride command to plan routes is …tedious… but not to bad. 
Once you figure out to set up all the places you plan on going then planning a new route is easier! Finding points as you go is easy enough but having most of your major places defined is easier!

The flyover is pretty neat but would be nice to allow a north up prospective.  

Planning on the web ride command and editing and then downloading to your RC app / your Slingshot is odd but seems to work well! 

Takes a while to get the hang of it but it actually works well!  

I have planned a number of rides and it gave me a good route to follow!

The slingshot navigation is very resistant if you vary from the planned route and keeps wanting to loop back instead of recalculating as you go! 

Not bad overall!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2022-06-01*

This app doesn't work for anything the idea is great and would appreciate the Ride Command 1000 times more if I could actually use threw the app. Waste of time. Extreme headache.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear you are having issues with the app.  Please reach out to us at ridecommand-support@polaris.com with details on the issues you are having, so we troubleshoot your issues.

### 1/5 — Difficult to use

*2021-10-25*

Difficult to plan new route and download it to the navigation system.  Navigation is in reliable and really unusable while traveling
