### 1/5 — Frechheit! 🤬

*2024-11-15*

Ich habe für die App einst bezahlt und werde nun mit geistesgestörter Werbung genötigt. Ich würde NIE auf eine App-Werbung reagieren. Denn das ist nur etwas von und für jene mit einstelligem IQ.

### 3/5 — Does not track distance for me

*2024-04-09*

I would give this 5 stars but it does not track distance. Always stays on 0 miles.  Everything else tracks fine.

### 3/5 — Weather Not Updating…

*2022-01-10*

I don’t like to purchase a product and then find out some parts of it don’t work, that unprofessional..I was going to use this app for cycling but the weather feature didn’t work which made me opt for a refund.

### 1/5 — Ads in the paid version

*2021-08-28, version 3.3.3*

This is a paid version, but there are advertisements. What is the use of the paid version if the annoying advertisements are still present, the only concern is to collect the largest amount of money where is the credibility

### 1/5 — Now rubbish.

*2021-07-07*

App cannot be used until advertising for two other apps are clicked out. Very annoying to have a delay when I went to use this app in a hurry. App will be deleted after this review. It’s now rubbish!!

### 1/5 — distance travel is not working

*2020-06-29, version 3.3.1*

The distance covered from one points to the other is not recording or reading. it says 00 km

### 3/5 — Was lovely but recent update has made It ugly! :(

*2019-08-29*

Still works,think your old landscape theme was way better than the nasty one we have now,I’m on a bicycle so prefer that LCD look and haven’t any need of a hud display,I think that’s the only reason you’d revert to the basic and pig ugly theme of white on black,it should be an option we can pick or edit! I use the old version on my iPhone 6S but I’d rather have it on my main phone here. I love that old version & rated it 5*
please revert the skin back or let us pick. I now use another app on this phone as it lets me edit the look to a similar look if your old LCD theme. Hope you can do the same here and let us edit as even cars now have various colours for dash and you could do better than black and white so easily. I’ll give you back deducted stars...
Thanks

### 5/5 — nice interface

*2019-03-31, version 3.2*

looks cool

### 1/5 — Google maps?  Are you serious?

*2019-02-16, version 3.2*

Yeh, like I'm going to give google my gps location so they can track me. Too bad the developer hasn't realized Apple has a mapping system on this actual device.

### 1/5 — Going back 5 years the complaints are still the same

*2019-02-13, version 3.1*

Looked interesting and is something I would have purchase but glad I didn’t. So far can’t get maps to come on I even tried making sure Goggle map was active. It senses speed even while my phone is sitting on the table. I’ll look forward to new enhancements or fixes.
