Ratings and reviews

Right off the bat, the Android display of the QuickLinks has overlapping text, which is illegible. The SOS feature states that you can "Add numbers directly or from your contacts to the Emergency Contact Number list." Not so, you can only allow the app to access your contacts and add from your contact list. Where does the selfie photo go? I can't find it anywhere on my phone or in the app, and it was a creepy test that I'd like to delete. Why did it take until 11days before the race to release this??

Emails for support have gone unanswered! No one is responsible for maintaining this app. Doesn't work on latest phones. App is old and latest version can't be installed on latest version of Android. Defaults to download an older version of app. App needs and update, not only a week till the marathon! App description says it's for the 2023 full marathon, app itself says 2022 half marathon. Also, nothing works AT ALL. A week and a half from the marathon and it's not functional.

it's 2023. As for many years now, developers cannot figure that this app is likely to be used in large crowd when connectivity is limited and interrupted. Is it difficult to understand that app should scale and RESUME when connectivity session is interrupted and restored?
