Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
What's new in v1.14.0:
- Rentals are now open 6 AM – 9 PM Eastern, seven days a week. If you try to start a rental outside of these hours, the app will let you know in a friendly way.
- Open/Closed status now shows the correct Eastern Time, even when your phone is set to a different timezone.
- NEW "push up to lock" guide at the end of each rental — a friendly animation that shows you how to secure the kayak by pushing the metal shackle up into the lock with your hand. Helps make sure every rental ends with the kayak safely locked up for the next paddler.
- Animated visual indicator while connecting to your kayak's lock, so you can see exactly what the app is doing.
- Password reset ("Forgot password?") on the sign-in screen.
- Behind-the-scenes diagnostics so our support team can resolve any connection issues faster.
- Crash reporting and stability improvements.
Happy paddling!
