I have Garmin, Strava, Move Spring, all work far better than this one. If it fails to pick up your activity, you cannot edit. Does not link with more reliable GPS.
Decent app, nice to join challenges - but - no link to Strava to record rides? Double-ride recording isn't worth the trouble frankly. I'd suggest a Strava interface be developed quickly since its such a popular app. Garmin is great but typically used by a higher end rider.
This app has been locking up the last couple days. It's a shame I really enjoyed the challenges.
Great app to keep up with your rides!
Cuts out frequently and fails to record rides.
I really like this app. It will stop when I stop which helps with your average speed.
Edit: read their response, you can integrate with Garmin! Love the app, and love the incentives to get out on your bike! If I would improve anything... I use Garmin and/or Strava to track my stats and fitness, and then I have to turn on the ride spot app secondarily. Integrations with Garmin/whoop/etc devices -OR- stats and fitness tracking features in the ride spot app would really send it over the top for me!
Good app. Just needs a feature where you can edit/terminate completed bike paths earlier in the ride, in case the user forgets to end the ride. This way current users can more accurately generate trails for new users.
Bug fixed! I had a problem with app shutting down on the challenge for El Tour de Tucson, but developers have fixed it!
Wants to much access. Intrusive
