    The WRC android app (TV) has gone through a major update including a change in visual identity: blue and orange replacing the well known black and green. Currently many things are still not working properly. For example: With your first login you have to update your password at wrc.com/reset Unfortunately this page isn't available yet, so I'm not able to login.

    Anyway, I guess a renewed platform is what the announcement is all about. Let's hope it will become a platform that works according to today's standards. That would actually be some big news.

    Hope so. The app was so bad that when I didn't have access to watch other places than on my phone, I had to use the browser instead of the app. The app didn't have the ability to go back and forward in the video and I couldn't pause to see where I'm at and carry on later, it always started from beginning

    Samsung WRC+ TV App was full of bugs and could not be used properly in last 2 years. Most of the bugs are quite clearly somehow related to authentication if user is subscribed or not. It might be that that before the publishing (+ during the rallies) no one tests and monitors WRC TV apps in real use with different device manufactures and models. Plus if someone would like to help WRC GmbH with problems, the WRC GmbH customer support don't have any knowledge and they don't allow customer to discuss directly with the company who is responsible for creating the TV apps. It is ridiculous. At least this is how it used to be in the past, hopefully it is improved now.

    + if they have now updated the TV app, it does not sound good risk management to update the WRC+ TV App 3 days before the season start when the hype is highest. They should changed the development cycle so that most risky updates will be published midway of the season.

    Is Colin leaving the WRC+ team?

    EDIT: Just found out he's going to report for DirtFish https://www.dirtfish.com/pressroom/w...llys-new-home/
    https://www.dirtfish.com/rally/colin...e-to-dirtfish/

    So what will I be doing? Well much as it’s always a bit challenging to get started, I really enjoy writing, so you’ll regularly be reading my thoughts on what’s going on in the rally world. From events you’ll be getting behind the scenes videos, previews, podcasts and analysis pieces.

    Off event there will be a regular podcast every two weeks with some of the most respected names in rally offering their opinions on all the hot topics of the day. And of course, you’ll be able to catch up with my rally monologues at my Thoughts from the Kitchen Table series on DirtFish.

    I just don’t have enough words how bad the marketing is for wrc+ and also for the whole series.

    I wish they could get Andrew Coley. He substituted Desborough on Tour de Corse last year and those highlights were just level above.

    Looks like DirtFish is heavily investing. Thou I liked Colin at the stage ends, not so much behind his kitchen table mostly because his analysis were way off from the reality. But good luck anyways!

    Cannot agree. Obviously there's opinions and speculations which may fail, but also very much some correctly anticipated things.
