Detecht - Motorcycle App & GPS for Negative User Reviews

UnhappyVery frustrating app to use. when it works fine it’s great, but when it doesn’t, it’s useless. It took ages to plan a route. You can access the map and ride the route but when you go back into it, it constantly updates itself and has been for hours. Have tried restarting phone and logging out and back in without luck. Having paid for the full subscription, makes it even more disappointing. Did a big trip and couldn’t finish trip due to app stopping when internet is lost..Version: 3.5.7

DisappointedI downloaded the app was excited to see the tracking and SOS functionality. Tried it on a 1500 mile 5 day trip. Tracking did not work. Lost track my ride data two days in a row. Put the ride in pause to continue next day only to find lost data from previous day. Got frustrated and shut the app down and cancelled..Version: 3.4.7

A little trouble.Needs offline maps. I am not sure why but after an hour or so of riding, the app minimizes and my phone screen goes dark since it is no longer maximized. I have to stop and restart the app. Luckily it doesn’t cancel the existing ride, but it sure gets annoying. I wish I could customize what info displays at the bottom right during my ride. It’s a toss up between this and REVER. Although REVER does not have a permanent setting for night view (since that is what I like) and I do not care for the interface display menu..Version: 3.7.5

It’s okayI have tried the round trip setting for a couple rides. It has a tendency to try to take you down deadens roads or roads that don’t exist. It also covers up your phone call when giving directions unlike most other map apps. That is extremely annoying when the directions aren’t accurate..Version: 3.11.1

UselessI can’t even get past the login stage to see if the app is any good or not..Version: 3.4.3

Ok appApp works as advertised but It’s a bit pricey for what you get. No matter what you do to filter the feed to local it still gives me feeds from halfway across the USA rather than in my state or even my hemisphere. I like that I can customize routes away from the highway but it would be nice if I could easily share and send that prepared route to my friends and family. Would also be nice if once I set the route if i could further detail it down to even the small roads I’d like to adjust..Version: 3.6.6

Love the app until....I have been using the app for a few weeks now. It’s great I love that if I get into an accident it will text an emergency contact. Up until today, when I open the app it does not go beyond the loading page. No matter how long I wait it does not go beyond that point. I uninstalled and re-installed the app no luck. This is a sad review for me to write, considering how much I was enjoying this app..Version: 3.0.1

Pay up or get nothingIt won’t even plot a route across town. You have to pay if you want it to plot the round trip. The you have to pay to have more than 1 emergency contact which shows the values of the developers. You have to pay to get turn by turn navigation which is a basic feature on Apple Maps.Version: 3.11.4

Sat Nav for driving on the right only!Lucky I wasn’t on the bike. Tried it in the car for a trip. Say nav told me to take first exit, but I knew I needed the third exit. Turns out it wanted me to drive anti clockwise round the roundabout! Is there an English version of this? It’s awfully off putting.Version: 3.6.3

New user reviewShould give you times/ETA to each waypoint plotted and probably should have a spoken direction for a a secondary turn directly after the initial turn. We went around a corner and then missed the next turn because we couldn’t see the additional turn on the map and it didn’t voice it before the first turn only as we came out of the first turn and then missed the second. Another thing would be speed limits, we’ve gone from using “Waze” which is a bit more user friendly and free to a paid subscription which can be a little frustrating..Version: 3.11.3

Larger speedoNeed larger speedometer.Version: 3.7.5

Does the job. Not a standoutIts advantage over Google maps is the ability to record a trip. What I don’t like: When in CarPlay mode the vehicle screen tells me to open the app on the iPhone first. It’s the only CarPlay app which does this. No current speed info. That’s about it. Not sure if it’s worth having the subscription version. I’m using it in conjunction with a new device called the CHIGEE All-in-One AIO-5 Lite. It’s a new product and has wireless CarPlay (maybe call it “Bike” Play???) and is permanently mounted to my motorcycle and will replace a Garmin Zumo XT navigator, hence the need to find a navigator replacement for the Zumo. So, when I have to take my phone out of my pocket to open Detecht then put it back into my pocket then put my gloves back on because I forget, it’s a bit frustrating that Detecht is the only app that has to be open on the phone first before CarPlay is activated..Version: 3.14.3

Great overallThe app works great but in the premium section it would be fun to have an option to avoid highways I have no business to be on the highway and it bothers when I want to try the round trip option..Version: 3.11.4

Voice warningsCan this app be set up to give voice warnings for speed cameras and excessive speed ?.Version: 3.9.3

Not very good GPSI used use the app for short rides before and it was fine. This time I took a longer ride and I had avoid unpaved roads on and it got me stuck out in the middle of nowhere because it kept on trying to get me to turn on gravel roads. Then finally the paved road end, and I had to turn around and go all the way back the same way..Version: 3.11.0

UnreliableThis app has several problems. 1) It's hard to follow your route because the color is basically the same as the other road colors. 2) The route just stops working all of a sudden and I have no clue where to go, and have to stop and reset the app. The apps routing logic gets confused and tells me to go the wrong way or just simply doesn't work. The trip planning could also be better and allow you to drag a point in the route over to another road, etc. As it is the trip planning isn't very useful. Last they got $60 from me somehow, I must have forgot to cancel it. 😒. Wasted money on this app. I wish Google Maps would add some similar features and we'd have a great app..Version: 3.11.4

It’s a bit crapTrying to plan a route is a bit of a faff. Tried many times to set waypoints and the planner always chooses the goofiest routes. There are apps like Rever that seem to have it figured out..Version: 3.4.3

Good and badSo the record ride feature is spot on and good for sharing rides with others. The plan ride bit needs some tweaking, one it is set for a round route it seems to add small sections that you have to come back on your self with having gone up the road by a small margin, this is frustrating when following. If that annoyance could be ironed out would be good..Version: 3.11.0

Great app but support is nonexistentThe app is great but I’ve had multiple bugs (like the app randomly switching to KPH) and when you go to “get help” link on their app or website, it gives you a 404 error. I sent them multiple emails in July when the website was still working and never heard back. Recommend you find an app with devs who actually care….Version: 3.8.4

Wrong directionsChosing the worst road ever( lots of pothole sand on roads) when you want a road trip.Showing wrong directions in roundabout. I realy want to like but it just anoying..Version: 3.11.2

Hard to useThe app is not adaptive while using! If you miss a turn but can catch up to the route the app will not let you, the only way to continue is to go back to the beginning. I left on a 125 mile trip and it missed my starting point and refused to just catch up to my current location. Five minutes into the ride I had to pull over and change app while riding two up. This has happened the last four out of five rides. I tried to give it a shot because I like the concept, and it maps out great rides, but what’s the point when it’s not flexible..Version: 3.7.0

PriceThe apps was good but the price is so expensive..Version: 3.7.4

Great When It’s Not CrashingThe app has some great utility: accurate GPS tracking, interesting metrics, and a very important crash detection feature. Except, I’ve only ever been able to record short portions of my ride because it crashes whenever I’ve left it on for more than 100km..Version: 3.3.23

FreezeIt won’t even let me make a profile without freezing..Version: 3.3.17

Old mapsGood concept, unable to use it as the Melbourne maps are very out of date..Version: 3.9.5

It’s great when it works, but it’s buggy and frustratingI’ve used this app with great success around the house on shorter trips. I finally took a longer trip to the mountains and this app let me down every time I used it. On the way up it closed after a rest stop and I didn’t notice and got way off course. I’ll put this on the phone for closing the app but my phone has never closed it like this before. The next day I had a great round trip planned and after less than 10 minutes it added unreachable waypoints that caused the navigation to run in circles. This effectively ruined the planned route since you can’t bypass waypoints. I never got more than 15 minutes or so without it doing this and since I had no idea where I was I’d have to stop and try again. I started picking destinations without waypoints and it seemed to help but it would put me on roads no street oriented bike should ever go on, creating some stressful and unpleasant situations. I’ve lost all faith in this app’s ability to get me where I want to go and have canceled my premium subscription since the extra features aren’t worth the money. On the way home I used Google maps which worked flawlessly even in areas where Detecht had problems..Version: 3.10.0

So much potentialSo much potential. Crashes/freezes constantly. Honestly has a mind of its own. Has glitches trying to guide you in the opposite direction. Had many rides that were shared among our group but for some reason the directions provided were not the same across the board. I will be deleting app. Not reliable for our long tours..Version: 3.11.1

Great appThis app is really good but appears to Be very heavy on data use ! So beware when you use it for long journeys..Version: 3.6.1

Missing ability to export gpx fileHood app - although some of the routes generated as curved or semi-curved are sometimes very long detours. Should have the ability to select several options. Also - I could not find a way to export a gpx file - which is great way to use e.g the Harley App..Version: 3.7.5

Updated app freezesHi. I dowloaded and set this app up over the weekend and thought it was a great thing for any motorcyclist to have and use. However since yesterday’s update I can’t open the app on my iPhone 8 Plus as it freezes on the opening screen.......Version: 3.0.1
