XLR8 App Reviews

Awesome wish they had more cars tho

Il faut payer mais c fun

Good idea in theory but in practice the biggest load of rubbish. The sounds are poor and the activation is laughably inaccurate. Most definitely an app where I would wish to have a refund.

Its ok I guess. Still have to buy cars after you pay for the app, dont like that.

I though that by paying for it that it would use gps to see when you your excelarating but it just revs randomly and sounds stupid. Radio 1 this app 0

Terrible lag. Revs dont match actual speed most of the time. I could be idling at a stop light and this thing is revving up to 3rd gear. You have to accelerate and break real hard to make this thing pick up changes in your speed. And the worse part is, they made the app free the one day after releasing it. App store needs to bring in a price guarantee for 7-10 days!!!

The sound is very crisp and clear. However, the calibration of this app is way off. It doesnt shift when I do which makes it sound kinda silly. I think that with I bit of work on the way the app reacts to the accelerometer is all it needs to be possibly the best app of its kind. Worth getting, not worth buying the in-app purchases. (For now, that is)

Although i feel silly using it, it worked great and i was really impressed with the default car. The ferrari sounded more artificial. For those stating it worked bad i suggest listening to the tutorial and making sure the device is fixed.

It dose not work as well as its has been described in the description for iPhone 3GS .. but if you have passenger it could control manually.. Its sounds good inside the car and you only get one car the rest you need to purchase ..

Has only 1 default car and you have to pay WAY too much for the others.

Dont buy the in apps. The only good sounding one is the one you get in with the basic app. It works REALLY well 75% of the time. But you need to do what it says. Start off in park then move when prompted. Each "pack" is only one car. I thought Id be getting several in each pack to select from. Be aware of this before purchasing. That having been said, I found it surprisingly accurate....and a helluva lot of fun, driving along in my Chevy Traverse sounding like a wicked Chevvy Camero! I read about a pack you buy for $80 that does just this (with hardware). Might be a little better but 99c at 75% accuracy beats $80 at 100% accuracy any time in my book. Great job 2XL!

Its a fun app. And it does work properly after a little play. Listen to the tutorial and u may need to stop the car and press the reset button once or twice for it to work properly. But once its set it works great. I showed it to a couple friends they thought it was cool as well. Not sure if id roll the windows down and blast it though. Not surr how it would look or sound from another vehicle

You basically get nothing for 99cents, only one model with poor sound quality!

Dont buy. Cost $.99 and if you want more then one car, itll cost ya $.99 per car. Theres four cars in total thats $4.00 dollars before tax or you can buy all four for get this $4.99. Awesome deal.

Dont listen to the negative reviews, just spend a few minutes tweaking the settings. My Rav 4 is much improved with this cool and fun app. I would really like to see more sounds, possibly like a diesel pickup, transport truck diesel engine, porche maybe the jetsons car. Thanks for a fun app. PS there was a show on discovery channel years ago called Beyond 2000 a show about future tech. There was a car featured on it that had the same system similar to Xlr8 built into it but required a huge computer to generate the same sounds that the iPhone can.

Not so good and not so bad

Being inaccurate and inconsistent. Would be cool if it could read OBD2 Wifi readers for real time RPM, because the gear changes are really confusing when driving. Its ok, but could be better.

Got myself pinned with inapp purchase. Well, didnt read carefully (however it was not obvious) and here it is. You need to buy this app then you need to pay for extra cars (execept for one) Eehhhhhh..... At least App should be free. Apart of that, app is Cool, v8 sounds great. Other engines are propably even better.

Reaction on car acceleration is too slow.

Bought this app few hours ago and I have been roaming the streets ever since and enjoying everyones reaction to the sound. This app is for every 18 year old who wanted to get a lambo but was a few bucks short, for every middle aged man who couldnt get the Ferrari because he had to send his kids to school, simply this app is for everyone.
