What Our Users Say
Don't just take our word for it. Here's what our users have to say about our Android app.
"Awful scroll in help, missing info on problems with Bluetooth... what does waiting for connection mean, feedback broken, cannot connect to server. Really just wasting my time"
Franz Thomsen
"It is simple and functional. It could have more visual features like NMEA sentence view. However, one thing I would like to ask. Could you please add something that provides ZDA sentences with UTC time and date. I am not sure if my not seeing ZDA sentences is due to my particular devices( I tried 3) or not, but I really need them."
ILYA TRAGER
"That should be indicated in the app instead of the subject of 20 minutes of googling."
James Glossinger

"Doesn't work at all on my phone"
A Google user
"Setup was a snap as advertised, but upon stopping the program my Droid Incredible freezes within an hour and requires a battery pull. I have used it three times over a four week period and it happened every time within an hour of ending the application. I waited a few weeks for the developer to respond before posting this review. I hope the bug can fixed in a future revision, but I can't use the app as it is."
