Used to be great, unreliable and reduced functionality now
The app updated some time between the end of the 2025 track day season and the beginning of 2026. Neither of my OBD2 adapters, one WiFi, one BLE, work any more. When I tap ELM WiFi in the menu, it switches to disabled in settings. And as of today, the app lets my iPhone go to sleep after I told the app to start recording a session. I lost all of the video and data because the phone was asleep. This app is effectively unusable and I’ll be shopping for a replacement. The only thing I regret is having to manually export all my lap times for the last 6 years.

An Idea
I love the app I have been using it since 2023, but I was wondering if you could made an Host of the track session, in which people Connect to the session, the host having the Time of everyone but he could also trigger the 3 main safety flag,(yellow, red, black) directly to the people on the session, so track owner and event organizer could actually add that to their sleeves

Deleted Lap Files During IOS transfer
Recently downloaded this app after hearing about all of the data it logs as well as being able to overlay telemetry onto videos. When trying to follow along with a guide to transfer data from the app to my Mac (IOS) over WiFi, it wouldn’t send to my computer but gave me the option to send to my phone, as the app recognized my computer and phone as places it could send the data. Well without having any idea that anything would occur, I tried to offload to data to my phone, but as soon as I clicked my phone as an option, the app crashed and when I went back into the app to try again, that entire sessions data file was gone. Just like that my PB session was erased and I’ve tried everything to recover the files to no success. The app is cool and looking at the data is fun, but that little bug cost me all the data for my best laps out, so if that could be taken care of or made simpler to transfer data to devices, the app would be near perfect for the price, but as it is currently, it’s pretty easy to lose your data files only to never be recovered. So if you’re reading this, my advice is to offload the data by plugging your phone into the computer and transferring all of the data files to the computer, don’t try to do the WiFi route, you may lose all your data that way. Will continue to use that app now knowing how to transfer things over via wired connection, but still, a fix for that or to be able to recover lost data would be nice.

Now Garbage
I've used TA for 4 years with an ext GPS, BT OBD and Hero 6, always worked incredibly. Now nothing works, I just tried to xfer my PB time for VIR, it crashed and now the session is GONE. Since December, it will start my go pro but not stop it, it cant find my OBD in less than 3-4 mins, and everytime i leave it active on screen, in range of my OBD adapter, my car battery drains. Once great, now garbage
