Comments on Go Paddling for Android

★★★★★ Cipriano Neves · Jun 26, 2026

It's back up! Looks like the last update did the trick. Great app for finding paddle locations...highly recommend.

★★★★★ Morgan Bell · Jul 13, 2026

It doesn't load details about each location anymore, but this is still hands down the best app for actually finding places to kayak. I use this app to locate launch points, and then just Google search to get more information.

★★★★★ MaggiesMarbles · Jul 10, 2026

7/2026 - The app has been fixed. This is my go-to for paddle possibilities and launch detail. Thank you!! Past review - App is no longer working. I am unable to log in to my account, and it doesn't pull up any information for the launch sites.

★☆☆☆☆ A Google user · Aug 14, 2025

Used to be a good way to find new places to go now it is saying it can't find this information when you click on the dots

★★☆☆☆ Ed Herlihy · Dec 16, 2025

This app must have been written for iOS. Under Android, it is barely usable. I LOVE the idea of the app, but whenever I try to get details on a location, it tells me none is available. If I try to add some details, I get an error.

★☆☆☆☆ Tom “Tom L” Lander · Sep 6, 2024

The app used to be good. Not only where launch points with detailed info about how to get there and parking info etc. but there used to also be extremely useful info from other users about say trees that had fallen and were blocking a river or weirs that could be dangerous if approached within knowledge. These have all gone and the app (and website) are basically useless! Logging in makes no difference and submitting any information achieves nothing as details are just not applied.
