Ratings and reviews

App doesnt remember devices or updates, everytime I turn them on, I must repair using bluetooth and reupdate software. Even if i just turn it off and on because it froze. I dont know how this could be useful for anybody. Ive easily spent 4 hours going through the troubleshooting, and unpairing and repairing and nothing works. For example, i bond with someone and where I should change thier bond color, it changes mine, but keeps the name of mine, but map shows opposite colors.

It's a good start. making it easier to switch between Totems is a must. I'm not sure if maybe Android has a limit on requests, but it feels like the app crashes or times out a lot. force close the app and wait a few minutes before you can try again. Living on Long Island I was shocked to only see 1-2 satellite connections. Remaining connected was another issue.

App is unusable in its current state. I can connect to a compass. Unfortunately, none of what I assume are supposed to be buttons on the "Your Compasses" screen are tappable, so the moment I disconnect from my one compass, it's impossible to reconnect to it again. In order to connect to other compasses, the first compass needs to be completely disconnected because I can only pair through the "Scan for Nearby Totems" button. I can't tap on the "+," I can't tap on previously paired compasses.
