BuzzPaddle

Put on headphones, put your phone in a dry bag, start paddling and hear your performance. BuzzPaddle will periodically speak your speed and distance status to you.

BuzzPaddle uses your phone's GPS and voice synthesizer to let you know how your workout is progressing. As you exercise you will periodically hear any combination that you select of your average speed, best speed, total time, total distance, and lap speeds.

You can configure BuzzPaddle to periodically report your status. Just select what you want to hear and how often you want to hear it. You can also use BuzzPaddle for an interval workout. Select your active time, your rest time, and the number of repetitions and BuzzPaddle will tell you when to start and when to rest. After every active interval it will report your statistics to you.

Because BuzzPaddle is specifically designed with paddlers in mind you do not need to worry about taking your hands off your paddle or trying to mess with your phone with wet fingers at the start of your race. You also won't need to take your eyes off the bumps to look at your watch to see how you are doing. Whether you are doing an interval workout of a race BuzzPaddle can be configured to start after a selected time delay and activation speed. This allows you to start the application, put your phone in a dry bag, and paddle to the start of race. Once the given amount of time has expired and you have gone faster than the given activation speed the timers will start.
