Buster application gives the boat owners means to remotely monitor their boat, view and share their journeys at the sea from an automatic logbook.
Our role was to design and build an application that works seamlessly with the Buster Q smart display and meets the high standards of the Buster brand.

A smarter version of your boat
Latest Buster boats feature a powerful Buster Q smart display which paired with the Buster app work its magic to the fullest.
It keeps track of the boat's location, fuel & battery status, and automatically saves your trips to a digital logbook. All this information can be accessed via the application as well, wherever you are.
Share your journeys
The app lets you share the memories of your Buster journeys with the world on social media.
Use the automatically generated image of your route on the map, or pick one of your own photos – whatever floats your boat!
New boaters welcome
The app also includes video guides and useful information about boating rules and storaging your boat. And instruction booklets, naturally.
A close co-operation
Building the app required working closely with not only Buster, but also Nextfour, the company behind the Buster Q computer and Kompozure, responsible for the cloud services and Buster ID.
The co-operation between all parties has been extremely smooth, and has enabled us to maintain world class quality standards, even within fast development cycles.
