Slingshot‪®‬ 4+

Room to Grow

This app has some downsides but it is fairly new and has plenty of room grow.

I would love the ability to just scan my repair invoices into the app instead of entering the info. That would be a humongous time saver.

Developer Response ,

Hello, Thank you for the feedback! We do appreciate it. I will forward your suggestion on to our development team. We are working on adding new features, including garage and maintenance related items. Stay tuned!

Doesn’t Function Right

The app doesn’t look or function as advertised. It’s been almost a year of having the paid Ride Command service and it has NOT worked properly since subscribing. I had a trouble ticket open and was informed it was potentially an app issue. I’ve waited for updates and still am having issues. It hardly ever shows the Slingshot’s location. Rides aren’t always tracked and when they are they don’t sync properly. It does not show a photo of your selected model the way it’s advertised to do. If it worked properly and actually looked the way you guys advertised then I would give a better rating.

Ride command …. Not bad

Using Ride command to plan routes is …tedious… but not to bad.
Once you figure out to set up all the places you plan on going then planning a new route is easier! Finding points as you go is easy enough but having most of your major places defined is easier!

The flyover is pretty neat but would be nice to allow a north up prospective.

Planning on the web ride command and editing and then downloading to your RC app / your Slingshot is odd but seems to work well!

Takes a while to get the hang of it but it actually works well!

I have planned a number of rides and it gave me a good route to follow!

The slingshot navigation is very resistant if you vary from the planned route and keeps wanting to loop back instead of recalculating as you go!

Not bad overall!
