### 4/5 — Super

*2026-07-04*

Eine absolute Bereicherung. 🤩
Damit verpasse ich kein Rennen oder die dazugehörige Qualifikation zu verpassen.
Allerdings sind aktuell die DTM Uhrzeiten nicht richtig (1 Std. zu früh).

**Developer response:** Hey Goaly! I'll look into these DTM start times - that's obvious an error on my part. Thank you for highlighting this!

### 3/5 — Declining

*2026-04-09*

It was once a reliable and accurate source for race schedules up to a week in advance. Now, it’s been cut down to showing racing schedules up to only 1 day out. Also, a huge miss not having an option to be notified when selected races are about to air.

**Developer response:** Hey Jetholl - which events are you only seeing one day out? The majority of events are 2 weeks in advance. I can only do the timetables when they’re public and some series (Porsche Asia, MXGP, Supercross for example) only post a day before the event. The app is run by 1 person and relies on series posting events. Which ones were you having issues with?

There are notification options in settings - notifications. You can set a notification for days/hours/minutes before your select series are about to start. 

Can you email me at dave@theracingline.app and i can look into any potential technical issues you’re having with timetables not showing?

### 4/5 — Good if you pay

*2026-03-14*

I had the discounted full year before, if you pay for pro this is a good app but you’re better off just finding the information you want yourself if you don’t pay.

**Developer response:** More American series such as WOO, SCCA are on my list to add. 👍

### 4/5 — Solid app

*2026-03-08*

You have to consistently open the app a few times throughout the week for it to work. It isn’t the end of the world but the app stops working if you forget to open it for a little while. Other than that it is a fantastic app. It has basically every racing series I can think of. App some decent customization too. You can customize when your notifications go off and you can decide what series you want to follow, you also get to decide what sessions you get notified for. Only thing keeping this from being a 5 star is the fact that it will stop working if you don’t open the app.

### 5/5 — Melhor app para fans de corrida

*2026-02-19*

Esse app é essencial para todo fã de corrida! Uso toda semana para acompanhar praticamente toda serie de corrida existente no mundo.

### 5/5 — Key features now premium

*2026-02-08*

After using this app for several months, most key features are now gated by a subscription, including notifications and start times. No point in the app if you don’t have those.

**Developer response:** Hi Rogerscgreg. There has been no change in the features which are subscription and the free tier in the 5 years the app has been live. It’s the same features as before. 

With no subscription, users still have access to an all the series calendars which shows the date of every race, and links to the series site, live timing and YouTube pages. Thousands of users still find value in this. 

Subscription includes session times, notifications, and the ability to stream the YouTube videos without leaving The Racing Line.

### 5/5 — Simply Awesome

*2026-02-08, version 2.50.8*

I love this app. Thank you so much for this app, bro!

### 5/5 — A MUST HAVE for every Motorsport fan

*2026-01-17*

I used to have to scour the Internet to sync with a dozen disparate race calendars to try to get everything into my schedule. This is amazing - all in one place and even links to live streams. It really is the best app I’ve seen for a racing fan.

**Developer response:** Thank you for using The Racing Line and your lovely review! The whole project is just about making motorsport easier to watch. I’m glad it’s working ❤️

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-01-17*

I really like it. It has many different series and all times and dates. If I were to add anything it would be to star ⭐️ races and have a link to where I can watch the race. Overall I love it.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the lovely review 🙏

For streaming, if you tap on a session on the Home tab, it will take you to the event page. If there are YouTube streams, I embed these directly in the app on that page. If it’s streams we can’t embed, tap the chain link icon 🔗 near the top right - it has links to where the event is streaming. Series/Sessions with a camera icon 🎥 are embedded in the app. 

There’s also the Watch tab at the bottom. This has everything i can embed in 1 tab. 😊

### 3/5 — Great APP-Terribly Slow

*2026-01-11*

Good app to keep your race weekends organized and so you know you are not missing out on any sessions. Incredibly slow to load anything or else would be 5 stars. 

Also I have paid for the full service and they give me ads in at the top every time I log in.

**Developer response:** Hey cco! This is obviously a bug I need to work on. Would you be able to email me at dave@theracingline.app and we can try a few things?

### 5/5 — I love it

*2026-01-09*

I love it as a new racing fan. I just wish I would get notifications! I have tried everything to get them

**Developer response:** Hey Nick! Notifications are a feature. Can you email me at dave@theracingline.app and I’ll help you get them working. :)

### 5/5 — TRL

*2025-12-03*

This app changed my life - for the better! The calendar app you never knew you needed.

### 5/5 — Everyday some fun race to watch 🏎️🏎️

*2025-10-04, version 2.41.1*

Great app to keep the petrol heads busy, thanks Dave

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2025-10-01, version 2.41.1*

This app is exactly what I need to streamline the myriad of leagues I enjoy.

### 3/5 — Great App to Track Races, but With a Major Flaw

*2025-09-28*

I have had racing line for over a year. It’s a great app to keep track of various Motorsport races, series, and so on. 

Only downside is you have to open the app once a week to maintain consistent notifications. It’s not a major inconvenience to do that, but I often brush those notifications aside and end up getting my tracked series reset resulting in missing out on races I would’ve liked to watch. 

As I said it’s all around a great app, but I wish the notification system could be improved. I shouldn’t have to open up an app once a week to keep getting notified about whatever series I’m tracking.

**Developer response:** Hi welkdaddy, I’ve looked into his but it would require server side notifications- and in order to that you’d need an account, which means I’d need your data. The only data I’m interested in having is start times and streams to make your life easier. 

Additionally, users would lose the ability to set the notifications to the time they want. You’d have a worse experience.

### 3/5 — Great APP-Terribly Slow

*2025-08-30*

Good app to keep your race weekends organized and so you know you are not missing out on any sessions. Incredibly slow to load anything or else would be 5 stars.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not Accurate

*2026-06-14*

Literally just missed the NASCAR race because this app said it started a completely different time. Almost two hours late to the race thanks to this app. I honestly praised this app for quite a while too and paid money for the widgets! but this is some bull. If you’re going to make an app to show all motorsports times at least make sure they’re accurate for local time too.

**Developer response:** Hey Tulips. I'm sorry this happened, but unfortunately this was a change by NASCAR less than 5 hours before the race was due to begin. The Pocono Cup race was scheduled at 15:00 local time and was moved to 13:00 local time due to incoming weather. None of The Racing Line is automatic and requires manual collation to ensure timetables are correct. When series make a change at the last moment, even if I update the app, if you don't open the app then unfortunately you won't see the change. Motorsport is annoyingly fluid compared to most sports. I am truly sorry this happened to you.

Dave

### 1/5 — Great service

*2026-04-28*

Has information for all categories that I am interested in. Use it almost everyday

### 1/5 — App

*2025-10-10*

Started out as a good app now its just lagging at every opportunity

**Developer response:** Hey Tommy (love Peaky Blinders btw), can you email me at dave@theracingline.app and I can take a look at this for you? Obviously not ideal!

### 1/5 — Orario e giorno errati

*2025-09-20, version 2.41.0*

Mi ha fatto perdere una gara mettendo orario e giorno sbagliato. Non mi ha segnalato gara 1 e qualifica 1 del GTWC a Valencia facendomi perdere la gara

### 1/5 — Stream doesn’t work

*2025-01-26*

Pro user , and stream doesn’t work

**Developer response:** Hi Sijacasf. Could you email me at dave@theracingline.app and I can look into this for you? Over 1000 users streamed events at the weekend but it sounds like I might have a bug affecting you.

### 1/5 — Possible scam?

*2025-01-22*

Don’t know if it’s something I’m doing wrong or this is a scam but nothing shows up just says no series selected, I go to the visibility setting and it won’t let me select any series to make them visible on the page . it’s got a constant loaning circle in the corner ? I have had the app for a few days now thought it just needed to download everything but still not working I paid for the premium to see if that’s the problem and still nothing .

**Developer response:** Hi Sketch, can you email me at dave@theracingline.app and I can look into it. 

Edit: can you try the latest version and see if the is fixes the issue? I have implemented a backup server in a completely different location which should solve this problem.

### 1/5 — Having to pay to see the race start times is crazy

*2024-05-30*

That at least should be free, I understand charging for everything else.

### 1/5 — Terrible Start Up

*2024-02-12, version 2.14.5*

Completely ruined a very cool concept by forcing you to de-select all. Of. The. Racing. Series. You don’t know or care about. The app freezes for a second between each untick, making the process take up minutes of my time.

### 2/5 — Devs lost the plot

*2025-03-27*

Idk why such a basic app has a $3/month subscription plan. App used to be pretty solid and barebones but now race times are behind a pay wall. 

It’s not that this app is bad. It’s just silly that it’s trying to be something that it’s not. It’s easy to make your own schedule for races. All this app did was make that even easier to do. Any other functionality is extraneous honestly.

**Developer response:** Hi P8580,

The subscription is 99c a month. The race times have been a subscription feature since the beginning and since then I’ve added streaming to the platform and kept the price the same. 

I put in 20 hours a week compiling timetables and streams. There is no automation here and it’s a single person app. The goal is to make motorsport easier to watch. Compiling schedules yourself is of course always an option - but this app is for those that do not want to manually search for times and streams of their series every week. 

If you’re having an issue seeing the 99c subscription then email me at dave@theracingline.app and I can resolve that.

### 2/5 — So much potential, but…

*2024-05-16*

I really want to like this app, as it would save me spending several days building this all into my iCloud calendar manually.

There are a few series’ missing that I would like to see, but that’s not the main problem. The interface looks great, but it’s fairly unresponsive, which makes for a frustrating user experience. Also, the fact that race start times are only included in the pro version is an instant turn-off

**Developer response:** Edited: Hey Delta! I just pushed a massive update to the app which should improve performance dramatically. Could you give that a try now?

### 5/5 — THE app for racing fans!

*2026-08-15*

You will be watching races that you never knew existed with this app! Accurate schedules for EVERY racing series you can imagine. Lots of features. Worth every penny of the cheap yearly sub.

**Developer response:** Thank you for the lovely rating! Even more features and series coming this year :)

### 5/5 — Great APP-Terribly Slow

*2026-06-24*

Good app to keep your race weekends organized and so you know you are not missing out on any sessions.

Also I have paid for the full service and they give me ads in at the top every time I log in, however I still do believe that the 10 bucks subscription for a year IS WELL WORTH IT.

Edit:  App sometimes has some issues loading duration times and start times, but overall has improved over the last year 4/5

**Developer response:** Hey cco! This is obviously a bug I need to work on. Would you be able to email me at dave@theracingline.app and we can try a few things?

Edit: as a paid user you can disable ads in settings - Power User - Disable ads. :)

### 5/5 — Best app ever

*2026-05-30*

One of the best apps ever keep it up Dave

### 5/5 — Must for any motorsport enthusiast

*2026-05-09*

Was looking for an app that shows every professional motorsport series happening on a given weekend. Came across this a year ago, and couldn’t ask for more. Lists all series I select, and displays as tile on my home screen. Worth the pay.
Two things I would like to see in future are 1) Live broadcaster / broadcasters / OTT  of the series on that weekend based on my geolocation 2) Results of the finished events when I click on it (atleast top 3). I think these two features will make the app more complete.

**Developer response:** Hello! Thank you for the lovely review! Later this year I’ll be working on more geolocation based recommendations. Results are more challenging but I’ll continue to investigate how to do this to see if I can make it possible. :) Dave

### 5/5 — A godsend for global racing fans

*2026-04-19*

Takes the guesswork out of knowing what’s on when, from local events where you can get the track schedule for different categories, to global events when you’re tuning in for quali and the race. 
Even has links to access the races. 
Love your work!

### 5/5 — Add Portuguese language!

*2026-03-30*

Ok

**Developer response:** Olá Leandro,

Tenho os idiomas na minha lista de tarefas, mas como sou um único desenvolvedor (não uma empresa), isso acaba sendo bastante demorado. Vou tentar adicionar, mas pode levar algum tempo.

Obrigado pela avaliação de 5 estrelas — o seu apoio ao app significa muito para esta pessoa que o está a desenvolver :)

Obrigado,
Dave

### 5/5 — Requesting features

*2026-03-08*

Please add a button to add events to google calendar not just for Apple calendar. Would love to see all my favorite events broken down by each section and their times in google calendar. Much easier to track.

Also can we get schedule tracking for “24 Hours of Lemons”?

**Developer response:** Hey Sky! This is on my todo list. I had a prototype of it working but it was buggy and broke people’s calendars. Because everyone has their own visibility settings it means generating a calendar for each person. I’m yet to work out how to do that in a safe and reliable way. But it’s on the list!

### 5/5 — Where have you been all my life

*2026-03-06*

We’ve been needing an app like this decades!! So happy I found this!

### 5/5 — Notifications

*2026-02-26*

Love this App great way to keep up with all the sports that I enjoy, one thing would be great,  if a notification popped up 10 minutes before the event

**Developer response:** Hi there 👋 If you go to Settings - Notifications. You can set which series and sessions you want notifications for (for example, F1, IndyCar, NASCAR, Race and Qualifying) and set the offset to 10 minutes and you’ll get a notification for these 10 minutes before :)

### 5/5 — I love this SO MUCH

*2026-02-21*

So worth the money
