v 2.0

Introducing the all-new Volo, the ultimate kite- and wing- surf tracking app that has been completely redesigned for watchOS 10. With this version of Volo, you can experience better syncing of surf spots, and never miss out on a great wind again. The app now allows you to add your current location as a surf spot on watchOS, allowing you to easily explore new locations.

Volo's Best Location feature now factors in your current location as well, giving you the most accurate surf recommendations. The app also uses a high-frequency motion sensor for more accurate jump measurements, so you can keep track of your progress and improve your surfing skills.

With Volo's support for the widget smart-stack, you can easily determine which surf spot to visit next, and never miss out on the perfect wave. Download Volo today and take your surfing experience to new heights!

Apple Watch Ultra is the ultimate companion for all your kitesurf and wingfoil sessions, so Volo just got updated to take full advantage of the most powerful Apple Watch yet.

◆ Three actions, one button
You can configure the Action button to start kitesurf or wingfoil sessions directly from anywhere! So you don't need to remove your gloves if you forgot to start your sessions, how convenient :)

But that's not all! Once you're on the water, you can quickly change views by pressing the Action button; you will switch between Jump, Speed or the default metrics. Are you taking a little break? You can simultaneously press the home + action button and quickly pause or resume the session.
See, a lot of possibilities in a single button.

◆ More accuracy.
With the dual-frequency GPS and better motion sensors, the watch has never been more capable of measuring your sessions than on the new Apple Watch Ultra.

◆ How long did you actually ride? (available on all supported devices)
Volo now shows you exactly how long you have been riding and how long you have been drifting in the water.

◆ Other improvements made in this update:
- Syncing improvements
- Tweaks on for the Home Summary page
- Clearer messaging on what you'll unlock with Volo Plus
- There is now a little bar chart in the Jumps view
- Small bugfixes and UI improvements
- Pause & Resume the session (also possible via the Action + Home button combination)
