### 5/5 — Best esk8 app ever!!

*2024-09-13, version 1.8.0*

Unbelievably great app! Never use my StormCore app that crashed at end of long rides due to amount of data. Tried a few other generic similar apps that do not even come close to the features this offers! Love the leaderboard feature and metrics for a guy that lives by data!!

### 5/5 — YT

*2023-12-15, version 1.7.0*

I couldn’t figure out why it was called Yours Truly, but finally realized it’s named after the girl in the book, Snowcrash who skitch skateboards by harpooning cars on the expressway.

Great UX, very useful.  10/10 app and name!

### 5/5 — Really great app

*2023-09-24, version 1.7.0*

Works nicely with vesc and Bluetooth module. Logs and reports telemetry with location . Helps to figure out Vesc issues and keep track of rides. Spectacular design and so well thought out, reliable and robust

### 5/5 — Best ui Vesc app

*2023-09-10, version 1.7.0*

Although i prefer to do my tuning in Vesc tool I prefer this app on a daily basis, love how you can add multiple with pictures! Wear and tear is a great feature! Only thing is I would like to see a gauge based rt data as well!

### 3/5 — Review

*2023-03-31, version 1.7.0*

Haven’t used the app much yet, but what I can say is it is very unique I believe for tracking yourself riding. I have meepo voyager and I would love to be able to connect it to it. Maybe there’s a way in seeing, any help would be awesome.

### 5/5 — love the app but I can't use it on my 6.0 firmware boards

*2023-01-24, version 1.6.0*

my all time favourite apps

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2023-01-12, version 1.6.0*

Simple easy to use and prefer this as my goto over my vesctool app. Well done. Please update so i can use it again as for not compatible with FW6.0 as yet. Keep up the awesome work legends 🤙🏻

### 5/5 — I bought an iPhone just for this app

*2022-09-08, version 1.6.0*

After seeing my friend with this app for his board I knew my next phone had to be an iPhone. 
The ease of telemetry is amazing and gives major confidence in my DIY board.

### 5/5 — Best app for esk8

*2021-10-03, version 1.3.6*

This is the by far the best app for tracking and doing vesc config on iPhone. Very active developer and will just continue to get better.

### 5/5 — Works great with my Kaly

*2021-09-20, version 1.3.5*

Thought I had written a review on this, but I guess not. This is an absolutely great app and it works flawlessly with my Kaly XL40. All the different data points it tracks are very useful and it’s nice to be able to chart those in layers in the graphing function after you’re done with the ride.  Highly recommended!
