Ratings and reviews

It's been a decent app until recently. Now when I open the app, it freezes on the welcome pop up. I open the app, a menu pops up and says welcome and if I'd like to open the quick start, or don't show again, or ok. Any option I click, nothing happens. And I can click other options but it remains frozen. Closing the app and reopening hasn't fixed it.

I would say about 60% of the time after downloading a hobo tidbit file, when I try to view the data it gives me an "error occurred while parsing the Hobofile. File may be corrupt." message. If I switch to the Hobomobile app, then I can download and view the data no problem. Unfortunately, the Hobomobile app sometimes has issues connecting to the tidbits otherwise I would be solely using that app. So instead I have to use two different apps and hope one works.

Latest update results In a loss of precision in downloaded water level data..now only 2 numbers after decimal..used to be 4..this needs to be fixed promptly. There is a work around that uses hoboware to read a .hobo file out of the hoboconnect app that results in 3 significant figures after the decimal. But the .xlsx output from hoboconnect is useless.
