Great app, really useful for SOTA
I like this app. It’s great for SOTA, whether you’re an activator or a chaser. As an activator, it helps to find and get to the correct location for activation. As a chaser, it notifies you of spots. What I would like to see, is an ability to go from the summit card directly to the map, then directly to the tracker. Other than that, it’s pretty much perfect! 5* is above changes made.
Useful tool, almost indispensable.
Absolutely brilliant app, bring everything you need for SOTA together, in one easy to access location.
If I was to give any feedback, being able to filter spots would be useful, only SSB, or region, or band etc.
Excellent
Great app for SOTA spots and alerts. The filtering is especially useful.
Activators “must have” app
I’ve been using Sotagoat for several years now. It’s really intuitive to use and packed with useful features.
I like the “find local summits” especially when on holiday and it’s so easy to self spot too.
Now with new updates, I especially like the summit tracker facility. This app is very good value for money and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it for anyone active in SOTA.

Best app for SOTA
Great app - have used it since I joined SOTA in 2016. Hopefully with this relaunch notifications will come back and stinky will speak again!
Can’t login and no support
Created login with SOTA watch (3 as 2 is no longer accepting new members...why 3 sites??). Anyway, can’t log in through app to create spots using my SOTA watch 3 username/password.
Emailed provider WW1X to advise but email address he provided in app and WW1X website bounces.
It’s better just to log on to the SOTA watch web site directly. Waste of money.
Great SOTA app
Good app to prepare SOTA activations. Would be 5 stars if it were updated to make use of the full screen on modern iPhones.
Push notifications do not work
If you want this app to alert you of spots then forget it for now as they do not work.
Excellent for Activation Planning
I really like this app for planning my SOTA activations, especially the map view of summits. The activation notifications are also really good for the chasers.
This app has already paid for itself in the planning time it's saved me!
