There is a trend too make things prettier and more accessible to the “average person”. (This is a copy-and-paste from what I wrote in their F1 Fan Voice feedback forum.) If the app isn’t fixed very soon I guess I’ll have to cancel my subscription after 5 years of paying for F1 Live Timing. This dumbed down version is absolutely unacceptable and not what I paid for. The timing app is a product for hardcore F1 fans who want more data and information than could reasonably be displayed in a TV broadcast. It’s yet another example of FOM prioritising style over substance in areas where it’s highly inappropriate. It appears FOM just tried to tie the timing application into their new design language with no consideration given to functionality. And it has nothing to do with aesthetics. There’s a reason the old timing app and the timing applications used by the teams look and are laid out the way they are. To create a sleeker look information density and the amount of information in general was reduced considerably and the white and bright red elements are anything but non-distracting and eye-friendly.
To achieve that it needs to have a high information density, split up data logically and neatly into different pages, and have a non-distracting and eye-friendly design.
F1 timing app android update#
With this update I get the feeling the people behind it didn’t understand how and why people use a live timing app.Ī live timing app allows to get a deeper insight into what’s happening on track at a glance to supplement the TV broadcast.
