### 1/5 — Deludente

*2025-09-05, version 3.1*

Se il tuo intento è un peggioramento dell’umore, questa è l’app che fa per te

### 1/5 — Schrott

*2025-08-26, version 3.1*

Die Position der Boote und der Start- und Ziellinien ist zu ungenau, heute bei der Zwischenwertung vor Spanien fahren in der App alle Führungsboote nicht durch das Tor. Das Leaderboard mit den Daten passt nicht zur Tracking-Karte. Das kann man also getrost alles entsorgen.

### 2/5 — Only Tracker is usefull

*2025-08-23, version 3.1*

Nothing beside the tracker can be found. Overall or leg results Not avalaible or good hidden. No latest news or multimedia Posts Not accessible

### 1/5 — Einfach nur schlecht.

*2025-08-10, version 3.1*

Die App der Vendee Globe war schon nicht gut. Diese App zeigt nur Müll an. Unübersichtlich und schlecht zu Navigieren.

### 1/5 — Unable to figure out, where exactly the starting line is

*2025-08-09, version 3.1*

This app is of no use, if you want to go to Kiel to watch the start. Therme is no Information wäre the starting line is and from where to watch the start.

### 1/5 — Blank screen, then content takes 3+ mins to load/when finally loaded all is in 'error format'

*2025-04-26, version 3.1*

Excited to follow The Ocean Race Europe 2025, but.. After opening the app (for the 1st time) & after the prompt to determine whether to allow notifications, there was a blank screen with the TOR logo for about 3 mins, then all content loads in 'error format' in which the content is not formatted properly for app-form. Appearance is like a website loaded incorrectly. Web-browser version has no issues. Please fix this, guys, I'd love to follow along!

### 1/5 — App ist überladen

*2023-06-17, version 3.0*

Das Wichtige, die Positionen und die Rahmenbedingungen, werden in über die Hälfte des Bildschirms reingewürgt. Wenn man sich dann Details anzeigen lassen will, werden die mit Logos und anderen Funktions-Icons überlagert. So ist es auch kaum möglich die Timeline ohne Tricks zu bedienen. 

Positionen aktualisieren sich nicht selbst. Es gibt auch keinen Refresh-Knopf. 

Crew-Infos sind falsch.

### 1/5 — da rivedere come il sito

*2023-06-10, version 3.0*

Come il sito anche l’app non è funzionale per il mio iPhone. Il tracker non è completamente visibile e non è possibile passare da Imoca a Vo65. Per lo meno il menu del contenuto delle barche si visualizza per intero mentre nel sito no. Sarebbe da rivedere, non è possibile avere tutta quella parte sopra fissa.

### 5/5 — 2023 race

*2023-03-02, version 3.0*

Brilliant content

### 5/5 — Bug Vollbildanzeige

*2023-01-17, version 3.0*

Bug: Vollbildanzeige geht nur, wenn der Ausführungslink unter dem Vollbildknopf ausgeführt wird. Sonst in Ordnung.
