Paddle Logger: SUP Canoe Kayak 4+

I first tried the app about 6 months ago, kept to the free option. Fear of commitment, sure it’s only $6? a month but I didn’t want to pull the trigger. Wanted to make sure I really liked it and would use it. Well I liked it, and I used it. Did the monthly to see if the other features would be to my benefit, both my wife and I use it. After using up the monthly we decided to go with the family subscription. It’s not on option through the app but it is through the IOS substitution settings. The app didn’t recognize the subscription, I emailed the staff at paddler. They were responsive and took care of the problem. Two things I would like to see in the app, unless I just could figure it out. 1. The ability to select each session to back it up as a batch instead of having to do each one individually. 2. Family subscription option from within the paddler app instead of just the individual monthly and individual yearly. Other then that thank you guys for taking care of the problem I experienced and for providing a great app. HIGHLY RECOMMEND PADDLER FOR THOSE ON THE FENCE about buying it.

Hey there, thanks so much for your review and thank you for your patience in sticking it out with us while we got that sorted. We're stoked to have you and your wife all set up on Paddle Logger Pro and you know where to find us if there's anything else you guys need!

I’ve been using paddlelogger since it was released. I might be one of the first few hundred people to ever use the app. It’s easy to use, the interface is incredibly intuitive. I can log a variety of paddlecraft, customize my activity, notes, add imagery, share with my buddies, share the data if and when needed. It’s a great app for paddling and or even using it for crossover sports like SUP skate/land paddling. I highly recommend it. You don’t have to sift through dozens of other activities to get to the one you want. Also, the emergency flare feature is brilliant, which allows you to notify somebody if you haven’t checked back in within a predetermined amount of time. It’s like having a dynamic float plan. I’m probably going to land paddle for 15 miles this morning, jump back into work, then get out to our lake and put in another 5 to 12 miles. In any case, should something go awry, my loved ones will know where I am.
My wife just download it as well. My buddies have been using it. outstanding app.

Thanks so much for the awesome review! It's great to hear how much you love using the app for tracking your sessions and also for peace of mind. We'd love to see some pictures of your land paddling sessions!

Your number one safety gear is your life vest. Number two is a cell phone in a waterproof case tied to your life vest with Paddle Logger Pro installed. Both of my kids get a text message when I head out and can follow my progress. If you need help, one click and even someone 3000 miles away can send help to your exact coordinates. I stopped for a long time to watch a bird, my son noticed I wasn’t moving on the map and texted to see if I was OK- it works!
I appreciate all the other features like being able to look at maps of past trips, distance traveled, speed in 1 mile splits, automatic connections to photographs etc. but the safety aspect gives me the confidence to paddle alone even in cold weather.
Made a pouch for my phone and attached it to the front of the life vest so the string doesn’t get in my way. Bonus: makes it easier to grab it fast to take photos.
