Ratings and reviews

I have used this app for years and it is very helpful, especially when you don't pay for the wifi on board. Love all the features!

At 70k and it's not working on either platform. Usually this app is amazing. When it works it eventually crashes.

Great App. Please fix the bug where you link to watch the YouTube videos and when you rotate for full screen youtube closes. Keep the updates coming.

What’s new

Added feature where if you go to the calendar view and it's the current day, the calendar view will jump to close to the current time
Removed references to Cruiser Organized events in the social media sharing and made the language more generic
Removed the offer of auto scheduling events, unless the user has ranked at least 50% of the bands. No need to offer on launch if the user has not setup the feature to work
