Ratings and reviews

This app is bad even when it is working as designed. Zero information about media is displayed. There is no ability to skip backward in media controls. Media controls are limited to whatever media app is open when the application loads, so if you switch from one program to another, you are out of luck. You have to turn off the engine and reload. Navigation also shows no useful information. As of Android 15, the app requires users to go through the entire setup process on every engine start-up.

Not sure what to rate especially after the app shows Server error while trying to login 🙄🤷‍♂️ EDIT: 05.31 - the app works fine now. Turn by turn navigation is good connectivity is fine. The turn by turn navigation overlays on the gas available as the bottom line of the screen shows the gas mileage.

Works well tracking rides, using phone / music etc ... SERIOUSLY let down on the Navigation side though. The turn by turn directions to the bike work well, the having your Phone on the bike to see the actual map (aka help you divert etc) is AWFUL!!! Half the screen gets Turn by Turn, WHY; the other half is 2 or 3 useless buttons. The actual map floats on top so small in one corner, its useless!!! No ability to flip turn by turn and map so user has a choice.
