Ratings and reviews

Great rowing game like zwift. This is exactly what I was looking for, a fun gamification addition to my rowing workouts. The game has been great and I've had no issues. you pay for access, which is currently in beta but you also get a year once the game is fully released. Exr is also looking to make additional features and improvements along the way. Well worth the price for a great game that encourages me to row more.

I've used this app for a while. Recently it isn't receiving correct data from my water rower. The pace is off by 15-30sec. At first I thought it was my rower or a battery issue. However, every other app seems to work fine. So I'm guessing it's a bug, but not worth using if it doesn't properly connect with my machine. Update: thanks for the response the setting mentioned fixed the issue. I guess I understand the exr split now. I just like when the app to correlate with my machine.

this is a fun app to use and I love the training aspect of it. but lately multiple sessions not saving after a workout. and would be very nice to have a quit app option instead of going to a change user menu that doesn't exit the app. lastly, would love to see a stroke rates in the training plan menu. update after 1.28... unable to save session entirely. app seems to lock up while trying to save indefinitely.
