ASA's Sailing Challenge for Negative User Reviews

StevoThis game is garbage. It simply won't load up on an iPad. I have installed and reinstalled many times and it makes no difference. The support team are simply not interested and offer no support or refund the cost of the app. I have started a FB section and found this fault is common. I am guessing it's all known about. My advice is don't touch it..Version: 3.0.7

Don’t.. 99p maxIt works, but very limited. Points of sail,free sailing. Changing boat type is more money. Waste of £3.99 Really a one trick pony and considering better games are free.. not impressed.Version: 3.0.11

Great Start, could use more materialHonestly very good with getting to understanding tacking/jibing and points of sail. Would be awesome if they incorporated a section identifying lines (which line does what and how they affect a sail) on the boat and boat anatomy, knots and buoys in channels. Engine parts as well and so on. Great start to the app but incorporating a lot more that's in the books would be amazing and great general knowledge..Version: 2.0

Not worth the moneyThis sailing app is one of the most basic I have ever seen. No map. No options. It is so basic that it should be free. I am very disappointed and wish I had never spent the money on it. Have already deleted it off my phone after half an hour..Version: 1.1

CrashesWith any sailing and simulation background this is a waste of your money. The island cruise crashes on my iPad mini. Very slow loading. Suggestions- fix bugs. Have more content. Have a tiller steering option I've payed to be a beta tester ....not good.Version: 1.1

All about moneyI’ve had this app a while and over time they keep putting more and more restrictions on it to where it is pointless to have without having to not only purchase the app but purchase all the in-app purchases. Basically you are limited to one boat and 1mph sailing speed until you spend more money…after just purchasing the app. Why not just charge more for the app and include it all. Plan on spending more than the app to make it useful..Version: 4.1.0

Lovely graphics, light on contentI teach sailing theory and I was excited about the prospect of this app. Unfortunately, a great idea trickled away somewhere in the creative process. Being brutally honest, for a pricey product from a highly respected group, the American Sailing Association, this is content light. It would take no more than an hour or two for any beginner to absorb the 'modules'. A good effort has been made to engage users with excellent animations and graphics, but, ultimately, this will disappoint anyone genuinly interested in learning to sail or to improve their understanding of sail theory and practice..Version: 1.1

UninspiringCant say I enjoyed this, or learned anything. Control is imprecise and difficult. Not particularly fun without an element of fleet competition. If there was a request refund button, I’d have hit it..Version: 2.0

Completely inaccessibleThis sounds like a great app to get some training for a blind sailor like myself. Unfortunately, nothing in this app is accessible to voiceover..Version: 2.0

ASA need to push the contentFirst off disproportionately costly for what "we" can get for similar dollar value. Anchoring, storm simulation, points of a compass challenges, applications of knots and the list goes on. I would encourage a beefing up of the potential our sport offers. Sailing boats and design identification, night lights identification and travel. There is a lot of real potential here and in this day and age you have the opportunity to be the definitive go to app. What does exist is great for beginners. I would encourage Beneteau to take some initiative in working with you (ASA) in take this app to the next level..Version: 1.1

Bait and switchIf you don't buy the in app purchases you get VERY limited game play..Version: 4.0.1

Confusing lessons - serious errors in appFirst lesson teaches one thing and illustrates another: incorrectly picturing that the right side of the boat as Port/red, and the left side as Starbord/green. I’m new to sailing, but even I know that when facing the bow/front, the Port side of the boat faces left and Starbord is right. As you continue and are asked to label the points of sail, all the points are also mislabeled their opposites, right and left..Version: 4.0.8

CrashesThe first few modules worked without an issue, but now the App is constantly crashing. This is very annoying..Version: 1.1

American sailing AcademyWon't load very disappointed.Version: 1.1

Money goneI bought the all products bundle within the app yesterday. Today it says I need to re buy it. Surely you shouldn’t have to re buy wind angles every time you play? If that is how you have designed the game it needs fixed or else you are just money grabbing. If it’s just a glitch I would like my all products bundle back because the game isn’t nearly as good without it!!.Version: 4.0.5

Works too slowlyBit disappointing really, works too slowly on my iPad to be any use....Version: 3.0.12

DecentNot bad. But only took about 45 min to get through. How about some additional content. Maybe a capsize element to the free sail. Pricey for what you get. I would've expected more..Version: 1.1

Cute but overpricedThis game is cute but gets boring pretty quick and definitely not worth the price..Version: 1.01

Blocky and runs slowRuns very slow on my iPad, probably because my iPad is old but it does have the correct software so should run ok, disappointed..Version: 4.0.8

Not shareableWe bought it only because it was shareable among our family sharing plan. Well it isn’t. It was purchased on the main person’s phone but it was the rest of the family that needed it and now we can’t use it. Very disappointed!.Version: 4.0.9

Needs more contentI was slightly disappointed by the lack of content in this app. As mentioned in other reviews, this app does not take very long to complete. Suggestions for future updates: -Anchoring -reefing/reducing sail area -lee helm/weather helm -navigation -catamaran sailing option -motorsailing -sailing with waves -capsize in excessive wind -practice mode with conditions such as windspeed and direction to be decided/changed by user.Version: 2.1.1

Good refresherVery high level coverage of sailing basics Should have been a 99c app though.Version: 1.1

BoringLimited play super simple.Version: 4.0.10

To expensive for what is offeredApp is nice in graphics but don’t justify the price. I got it based on friend recommendation but I already regret it... Even I tried to buy an additional boat to see if new features appear and nothing happened. The challenges are repetitive... answer the questions faster... not really additional knowledge..Version: 3.0.10

Limited and TediousThis program has potential, but it is extremely limited. If you want an app to help improve your sailing knowledge, this is NOT that app. There is simulated sailing which gets old and timed courses which are completely arbitrary. Also, there are some bugs where it will not start and stop as expected. I really expected more from A.S.A. and am very disappointed. This might be okay as a free app, but when your paying for the app, it is not worth it at all..Version: 3.0.6

Very basicHi, Very basic app for the cost. I didn’t think the game play was very realistic. 1 hour playing and you are done..Version: 2.0

Good start.Kept me amused for a day, and the learning aspect is well thought out. The problem is with the sailing challenges - there aren’t many of them , and they are quite short. More content is required - even something as simple as doing a few laps of a course would expand the game nicely..Version: 3.0.2
