XLR8

Pros: fun app. Great engine sound. Base price for app ok Cons: hard to get it “dialed in” to somewhat match the drive of my car Not very responsive to accelerometer on phone Purchased the other engine sounds and will not successfully download. Retried multiple times with cellular data and WiFi. Will try a few more times then request refund for the other engines. Driving at highway speeds and when dropping elevation, simulated engine would downshift and hold in first gear until going up a hill. A bit wonky

I have to laugh at the negative reviews. I use it on an electric ebike with a Bluetooth speaker in order to give it noise. The app works beautifully. The other solutions in order to accomplish this would cost hundreds of dollars. I just wish the developer would develop a jet engine noise which would be a more appropriate noise for an E bike. Could you please do that? As for the people who complain about restoring purchases, they should know that all Apple apps work the same way. You have to click to buy it again but Apple then always gives you a pop-up notice that says you don’t have to pay for it again because you have already purchased it. The fact that so many people criticize the app over something that they should understand is truly pathetic.

After the update, I lost all my cars. Worked great before. Still works great with just the free car, but I want all my cars back. When I get them I will change to 5 stars. Emailed the company and Miguel was very helpful. He informed me that as long as I use the same iTunes account that originally purchased the cars it would not charge me. I tried it and at first it does look like it will charge you, but after you input your iTunes password a pop-up window says that you have already purchased it and can download it for free. I got all my cars back.
