YB Races

Badly thought out and does not work most of the time. Could be great but poorly executed.

Frustrating, slow, keeps crashing my phone and you can’t track a boat or class, none of the buttons work. Stupid app

Downloaded to see where Rolex race was, search tool finds the race - map doesn’t appear. Useless

This app is gradually getting less stable. Lack of development and updates is showing with various usability issues being encountered. For example (using the RORC Myth of Malham race) the app has frozen 3 times during zoom. It now only loads with a blank page or displays the map but is locked. Yellow Brick you need to do more work on this as it won’t cope with the Fastnet 2023.

I am trying to zoom in and follow one team, why does the zoom keep resetting?

Just downloaded the app to follow the GGR2022. Worked the first few days of the race - now no longer updating positions. This requires setting up laptop and looking at the website. It will be extremely frustrating if this is the best it can do as the race will be over nine months!

I appreciate this is a free app and by and large it works ok. However there’s no obvious way to remove races you’re no longer interested in, which reflects a generally poor user experience. I’ve also noticed that I will sometimes have to launch the app three or four times before it actually works.

The social media part of the app is hopeless. I want to read tweets etc about the race I am following not random tweets about rewilding in Scotland. I am trying to follow TWAC2019. Please sort it out. Last year it was fine. This year it is useless

Trying to follow Fastnet on iPhone and iPad. Keeps coming up with error message and have to reload - which is slow. Can’t flag favourites so have to search afresh each time. Basic in the extreme which you would think they would have evolved after all these years.

The app constantly crashes and restarts on my iPhone XS making it almost unusable.
