Ratings and reviews

I'm very happy that this app exists. It's really helpful to find launch locations that are rated by other paddlers. The interface works pretty well. I'm not able to add comments though because it keeps prompting me to log in, and doesn't recognize that I'm logged after I do. The user reviews are the most useful aspect so I hope others don't have the same trouble.

As far as the app experience ive had zero issues. Although from my experience most of the drop locations are very difficult to locate in the real world. Often times pins are dropped 3-5 miles away from the actual location. Also it would be great if it would just offer you the address or gps coordinates instead. It has been an invaluable tool for us to ultimately find spots to kyack and plan river trips.

Decent as a sorce of information but a horrible interface. Very annoying design. Expect to start over frequently, and go thru the lifejacket nag screen. Almost more trouble than it's worth. EDIT: Hasn't gotten better. So difficult for the community to provide the info that would make the app useful. UPDATE: It's now been abandoned and is totally useless. They need to sell the app portion of the business.
