Dawn Patrol

Buen aplicativo pero aún con problemas me contabiliza más olas de las reales

Muchas veces registra olas pero no lo son sino son remadas. Aparece que corrí 60 olas pero en realidad agarré 10.

I loved this app at first, but lately it has been hit or miss. Forecast no longer works on Apple Watch. Strava sync not available anymore. Sessions not showing up on phone. What’s going on??

The sports statistician in me loves it! Motivating in some ways…

GPS accuracy, sync problem with Strava. The application is really well made and intuitive. But I very regularly have sessions where the GPS point is 400m off from me, which gives false average speeds at the end of the session (319km/h ...) The connection to Strava may be established, but the synchronization of sessions is impossible. Even after several updates. For those reasons, I know use an other app to surf track.

The app isn’t totally accurate, every time you paddle for a wave it counts it as a wave ridden, even getting pounded when you get caught inside can count as a “wave”. The time and distance of the ride recorded are a little suspect too. I’d like to see a feature that tracks wipeouts, and hold-downs as well.

Pros: The user interface is easy to follow and really aesthetically pleasing! I like that I can enter in the spots I surf at and the boards I use that session. Cons: I’ve used this app for several weeks to track my sessions and I use an Apple Watch. It’s highly inaccurate with most of the data it can track (location, speed, time on wave, etc.) it’ll map that I rode waves onto the beach, past the parking lot, and past highways for example. Also, today on a day with 1-3 ft waves that were not very powerful, it recorded me riding a wave for over 1 minute at 20 mph.. I wish I had that ability but my skills are also nowhere near that level yet. Also, my sessions do not sync to the app on my phone immediately and I typically will have to go into the app on my watch to sync sessions individually. It’s a nice concept but this app has a lot of bugs and inaccurate readings. I’ve been wanting to use it to track my progress but have not been able to because of the inaccuracy of data.

The app has become unusable for me.. the feed on the Home Screen just freezes up and I can’t scroll at all… the watch app starts frequently and I have a lot of junk sessions but there’s no option to delete session so it has to save it which then syncs to Strava and fills my Strava with junk… anyways I like the app but needs a lot of work

This app is amazing. I switched from a Garmin just for this app and use it for foiling and traditional surfing and it works perfectly. The only thing that would make it better is if it would send the heart rate information to Strava seems like that would be pretty easy to do.

After a session if you select the board or edit any rides, most of the time it’s not saved. So after wasting a bunch of time redoing the same work over and over, I won’t be renewing. Hire some QA people already.
