### 5/5 — A must have for skiing!

*2020-01-30, version 1.8*

I love it while skiing! It’s a major pain to find a volume level loud enough to enjoy the music while ripping and quiet enough to talk while on the chair. With this tool makes this a things of the past!

### 5/5 — Great for skiing - love it!!!!

*2020-01-25, version 1.8*

Skiing to music is something I love to do, I always got annoyed with one constant volume.  This app is brilliant and so simple to use.

Downloaded really quickly and 30 seconds later all setup and ready to go.  I was skeptical if it was going to work.......I started skiing and it was low volume, I hit my speed threshold and the volume cranked up to the level I set.  Love it!!! 

The biggest bonus is not taking off your gloves to turn the volume down and sit on the lift to hear conversation, the volume drops down quickly when you drop speed or arrive in the lift line.

Simple, easy to use and great ability to adjust settings. Will recommend and give the thumbs up for certain

### 5/5 — A must have

*2020-01-23, version 1.8*

I used this app for over 6+ hours today with no breaks. It’s an absolute game changer, one of the best new apps out there. I have a work iPhone 8 with average battery life and I didn’t notice any additional battery drain.  If you do experiment any just shut down all other apps and stay off your phone (snaps/pics/etc) and you’ll be a very happy camper.   Thank You Kris!

### 5/5 — Lightweight, easy to use, effective

*2020-01-22, version 1.8*

This app is a simple solution to a long-standing issue for skiers and other athletes. Takes a few tries to get my settings to fit for my preferences but I was happy with the result. Cheers!

### 5/5 — Great for skiing

*2020-01-22, version 1.8*

Simple to use and works great.

### 5/5 — 5 stars

*2020-01-21, version 1.8*

Simple and easy to use! So far been pretty accurate with the speed as well!

### 5/5 — SO SMART

*2020-01-21, version 1.8*

This is genius. Never knew I needed something so badly until I tried this skiing. Works great!

### 5/5 — So handy!!!

*2020-01-21, version 1.8*

This app is so handy!!! Used it skiing Whistler last weekend and it worked seamlessly. So handy to not have to fumble with turning my music volume down on the chair or when regrouping with friends on the hill.

### 5/5 — Changes my skiing

*2020-01-18, version 1.8*

Works so perfectly, and it’s amazing that you can chat with your pals on the chair or when you stop without having to take your phone out.

### 5/5 — Here from Newschoolers

*2020-01-17, version 1.7*

Saw the post in ski gabber and had to check it out. This app is perfect for skiing with the crew for the day if your earbuds are always under a face mask or buff of some kind. Also doesn’t seem to affect my battery life, so that’s a plus -Hangry

### 5/5 — Exactly what I needed

*2020-01-14, version 1.7*

I really had no idea that this could be done. This is everything I didn’t know I needed to make my rides rock. I have yet to test it while running but I’m expecting I’ll love it just as much running as biking.

### 5/5 — Much needed!

*2020-01-14, version 1.7*

Thanks for this from another reddit user!

### 5/5 — Bikers best friend

*2020-01-14, version 1.7*

As a keen biker this is brilliant as I need  my music loud whilst riding but have struggled when at traffic lights but this app turns it down automatically. Granted it takes a bit of fiddling with to set up but 100% worth it

### 5/5 — Perfect for the POW

*2020-01-14, version 1.7*

So simple but just what’s needed. I’ve skied a few days with this app now & it does exactly what you’d expect. You can fine tune the cut off speed so it stays on low (or no) volume when you’re on the lift or stop & cranks it up when you start to shred it! An absolute must for any skier/rider that likes the beats on the hill.

### 5/5 — Game changer

*2020-01-03*

Love this app! I use it while riding my motorbike and listening to Spotify. 
Perfect for when riding in a group so you can hear your mates when stopped at the traffic lights without having to try and find your cable to stop your music entirely.

### 5/5 — No more fumbling

*2020-01-03, version 1.0*

What a simple but effective app. No more digging through my pockets on a POW day to turn my
Music off.

### 5/5 — What we’ve all been waiting for!

*2020-01-03, version 1.0*

This app is such an amazing yet simple concept. Happy to have found something that works the way I want and need it too. I love using this app for when I’m running. Not only is it helpful for working out in groups (for the sake of hearing other people) but it also keeps me safe. The volume automatically turns town when I slow down to cross the street or stop at an intersection.

### 3/5 — Pretty good

*2020-08-20, version 1.8*

Works well without Bluetooth device but can’t control volume from iPhone on my Bluetooth stereo therefore it can’t change the volume when moving

### 4/5 — Great start

*2020-03-11, version 1.8*

It’s a great beginning version of the app. It does exactly what it’s supposed to do. The only reason it’s not 5 stars is because I believe it needs the option to add a buffer or a wait time before the music began to decrease. If you stop to find your line, the music will be quiet right before you drop when you need to be hyped most. Aside from that it’s great

### 4/5 — Suggestion to make this app even better

*2020-03-03, version 1.8*

I got this app on the day it was released and have used it pretty much every day since. 
I commute from Surrey into london on a Motorbike and use the app to lower volume in my earpiece navigation/audio when I drop speeds at traffic lights etc.

I would like to see an update with a second speed trigger so that I could have 3 volume stages.
i.e. 50% volume under 10mph, 
75% volume under 44 mph 
and 100% over 45 mph. 
This would create the perfect volumes for static traffic, city driving and motorways.

### 5/5 — Perfect for Boats!

*2024-06-23, version 1.8*

I have never left an app review, but this one deserves it. Some boats have a system like this built in to them but ours doesn’t and this solved the problem! Not to mention it’s a much cheaper fix than installing the system!

### 5/5 — Great for motorcycles !!!

*2024-05-20, version 1.8*

I’ve been using this app for 3-4 years now on every ride I take. Alway works great, never have connection or volume problems. Perfect for hearing other cars/emergency vehicles around me at stops but rocking out to songs at 60mph

### 5/5 — Simple. Works.

*2023-06-02, version 1.8*

Great for boating!

### 5/5 — Amazing app, works very well

*2022-02-26, version 1.8*

Works right off the bat, took 2-3 runs with adjusting it to my preferences and I was set.

### 5/5 — Awesome for water sports!

*2021-07-19, version 1.8*

Works like a dream. When you are up to full speed it’s loud enough for your rider. Then when you stop it isn’t blowing everyone in the boat out. Thanks!!

### 5/5 — Love it, telling all my friends about it.

*2020-12-21, version 1.8*

Works great. Set my trigger speed so that the volume is low when I’m on the chairlifts and turns up as I’m riding. Also use it mountain biking.

### 5/5 — Must have for a boat

*2020-08-14, version 1.8*

Works great, thanks for making this app!

## Most praised reviews (3 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Exactly what it says it does

*2020-02-11, version 1.8*

It’s flawless. It really is. I do wish it had a pause feature. I listen to podcasts on my ride and would rather it pause when I slow down. I miss part of the podcast when the volume goes down.

### 5/5 — Great for mountain biking

*2020-02-03, version 1.8*

I use this app when I am mountain biking. It enables me to enjoy the music when at speed, but also talk to people when I slow down or stop.

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2020-02-02, version 1.8*

Nice app for listening to music while Skiing.
