Ride with GPS: Bike Navigation for Positive User Reviews
✓ Great app!!!Love the app!! Like being able to see friends routes and able to map them. Keep up good work!!.Version: 2.1.17
✓ Well worth the premiumI’m a beginner at this game. I’m 80, with gamy knees and a stooped posture. We have just purchased top grade ebikes (Trek Verve +) and are having the time of our lives. One I got the hang of the app, paying the premium to get the best service, and mastered the RideGPS route app, downloading the routes to the bike computer and pairing them, they work together beautifully. You get to appreciate the cheerful chirping and the warning noise when you go wrong. I’m a strong willed obstinate person, and think I know where I’m going, but I repeatedly get it wrong 😑 The apps put me right, and nobody but me knows. Magic..Version: 3.0.17
✓ Cycling wing manAs an avid cyclist I’ve been using multiple apps and out of all of them I will say RWGPS is by far the best app for cycling. It has all the features and more like some of the other apps but the best part it’s it very simple to create, share, edit, and get turn by turn navigation via Bluetooth device. If you’re for a all in one navigation app for cycling RWGPS is the pick. An update to the overall up would definitely put this app at the top 5 pick. 🤙🏾.Version: 3.0.6
✓ StatisticsIt always nice to see how far and how much effort it takes me to cycle!🤭.Version: 3.0.9
✓ User FriendlyI have used Ride With GPS for about a year now first, in the free version, then the premium paid version. What I found valuable was the ability to plan a route, then edit later. Other programs I used made removing routing points difficult or impossible. I am using this program for team maps. The program also allows another user to see my location on their phone in near real time. Helpful for family when I am venturing on forest trails. You have control on who can view your route with privacy settings. The program also has voice turn by turn directions. I am seeing improvements in the app as time goes on, the latest being able to plan routes on an I Phone. It also works seamlessly with routes created on a PC. Routes can be imported/exported to many GPS devices the one I am using is a Garmin 1000 Explore. The free version has many features, the upgraded paid version has more. After testing 4 other mapping programs, this is my best..Version: 2.1.2
✓ Using RWGPS since 2013I have been logging my rides and planning my routes with Ride with GPS in the United States Europe and Latin America and it has been a fantastic tool and helped make a lot of wonderful memories that without the planning could’ve been very messy adventures instead. The support from the team has always been terrific and it’s been a pleasure to watch the app evolve over the years (which was super!) to the really solid great tool that it’s become. I use the features like a first grader but I enjoy knowing that I have all of them at my fingertips..Version: 2.4.1
✓ First time userI paid for 12 months because I wanted to be able to create and upload routes to my wahoo bolt. Takes a little finessing but the learning curve is simple. Love the fact that I can also include turn by turn directions and points of interest if your off piste. Once you’ve created your route simply pin the route in options and it’s ready to go on the wahoo. Love it..Version: 2.8.3
✓ RefundI want a refund on that one it was an error today I do not want to Purchase it please refund on my credit card and I do not want that subscription anymore.Version: 2.6.4
✓ I love this app, but…I have been a premium member for years. Absolutely love the app. I’m not a techie, and I still find it so easy to use. I design my own routes plus pull from the library for routes all over the (developed) world. Only thing that doesn’t work for me is the paved vs unpaved indicator. In many instances, paved routes are shown as unpaved. I only ride paved so I avoid any unknown route indicating unpaved. So I wonder what Im missing. On the other hand, I have used routes that didn’t indicate gravel, and yet it was. Im a senior and my husband is 84. We ride long distances(40+ mile routes.) But hubby’s balance is not what it was. So coming across several miles of unexpected gravel is no fun. But my complaints are minor compared with how much this app has improved my life! Oh - also love that I can use RWGPS on my iPhone. Did not want to have to buy and learn another device. (Tried to learn Wahoo- but returned it because it was too tiny.) One other suggestion, though. Come up with your own sturdy handlebar holder, preferably light weight metal. I have one that works and holds my phone securely, but it’s plastic. If/when my bike falls, the $35 plastic holder breaks. I’m on my 3rd or 4th. One other disappointment: website does not include info on how one might invest financially in the company, besides paying annual dues! If you want investors, make that info easier to come by..Version: 3.0.17
✓ Running featureI love Ridewithgps! Just wish it could track my running too. :(.Version: 3.4.0
✓ So Helpful!!!I am travelling, and using Ride with GPS to plan our rides. Fantastic! It is easy to use, I appreciate the distance and climbing input. And the elevation map interface. Excellent app!.Version: 3.1.14
✓ Ride with GPSI use Ride with GPS to plan group rides, outdoor and indoor rides and routes for my cycling students and coached athletes and my own rides both outdoor and on my trainer. I expect to start using it with my SMART Elite rollers this coming fall; it is time to learn how to use them! Creating and sharing routes is very easy and straightforward, even for an admitted tech Neanderthal like me! I recently began utilizing the program’s option of adding photos to points of interest/landmarks; it makes it easy for cyclists to identify their whereabouts and progress. Coach Vito.Version: 3.2.4
✓ No turn by turn voiceI have heard the turn by turn voice. But not everything I use Ride With GPS. I have had no way of knowing where to next turn is because of no audio. Not at all happy that I’m paying for something that is not working properly. I do not want to have to pull my phone out to see if I missed my turn. Oh I use Aftershock headphones and music is used so that I can determine if the volume is up all the way for the Ride With GPS. But I don’t ride with music on and ride with gps is always silent. I’m about to cancel my subscription. RWGPS has responded to this review and showed me where the problem was. It is a setting that can be used or not within The app. Such a simple fix after all. I cannot be happier with RWGPS.Version: 3.0.17
✓ RWGPS Sports AppI’m a cyclist and routes are important to me, battery life seems to get shorter every few months but with RWGPS you don’t need energy sapping satellite links anymore as RWGPS still shows route and location in stealth mode. Amazing app and will be using fornTCRNo8 as alerts for turns warnings and much more. Many Thanks TWGPS.Version: 2.9.1
✓ Route masterRW GPS is a fantastic planning tool, I’ve created short walks with the Fam to a 3000 mile plus route on RAAM. Intuitive and easy to use, it’s the best app of its type I’ve found. The dev team keeps it fresh and adds great features..Version: 2.1.12
✓ RWGPSVery good service. Thank.Version: 2.1.7
✓ Best app if you want Varia integrationMy kid got me a Garmin Varia for Christmas and I wanted and app that integrated it so I didn’t need to switch apps on the fly. Tried Cadence but it wasn’t great. This one is. I want a tool where I don’t need to go to a browser to download routes. It’s a nice option but shouldn’t be the default. I will say that it needs a night mode though. You can dim things down a bit using the hybrid or satellite views but that’s a problem in bad data areas. The map screen is way too bright for night riding without using one of those though. The routing suggestions are excellent and I like the fact you can edit one of theirs on the fly and save it right on the phone as a new route. Learning curve so far has been easy. Most stuff is front and center and intuitive. The social media stuff isn’t so over the top like in Strava lately. The most surprising thing is how well the Varia integration works. The warnings it gives are far more intuitive than what you get from the actual Varia app. I liked it will enough that I paid for it..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Consistently the best cycling appI’ve been using RWGPS since it’s launch on iOS and it’s developed over the years to be the best cycling app ever (I’ve tried a LOT). Easy to use too, which is crucial. The rare times I’ve asked a question of the support team, it’s always been answered quickly and knowledgeably. Thanks RWGPS team!.Version: 3.0.0
✓ Great appI’ve been using this app for over three years and it’s fantastic. Lot’s of improvements and features. Highly recommended.Version: 2.1.19
✓ Excellent tool, with a few minor glitches.Excellent for planning rides in unknown areas. There are some glitches, it refused to allow me to plan a route which involved crossing a main road at an unofficial, but locally recognised crossing point. In one way this was understandable as the access was originally barred by a fence which is now non-existent. On another occasion I was not allowed to plan a route, through a village, on the main road. Clearing the route and starting again solved the problem..Version: 2.1.14
✓ Great phone app/suboptimal watch appAs a route planner and iPhone app, I cannot say enough good things about. The app provides excellent turn by turn directions and excellent details. Route planning is top notch. As a watch standalone app, it is pretty good and captures the essential details for the ride. There is a bug where the app almost always refuses to stay in the foreground and I have to ask Siri to bring it back. This is more annoying but developers punted when I reported problem last summer. As an integrated app, the app frequently loses contact with the phone and almost never provides turn by turn directions. Then we do the dance of powering on and off both devices until they talk again. This is the reason why I bought the app/watch. Now searching for replacement..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Brilliant route plannerNothing else like it. If you are used to planning routes on pen and paper, the app will make complete sense to you. There is also an amazing route library available, much better than Strava when it comes to this..Version: 3.4.7
✓ Simple no fafEasy to get to all the features, press record button and ya away. Love the maps..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Best Ride & Run Mapping SiteRideWithGPS is simply the best mapping, route sharing, and event organizing site. Widest selection of map bases, most with autorouting ability. Powerful editing tools. Elevation estimates tend to be a little low, but more accurate than other apps. Routes easy to download for use in watch or cycle computer. I have extensive experience mapping with Garmin, MapMyRide, and Movescount also. RideWithGPS is much better. Have used it to plan literally hundreds of routes. I help organize two major local cycling fundraisers, lead a weekly ride series that never repeats routes, and combine routes for multi-day events. Highly recommended. RWGPS also has activity tracking and community tools. They may be great but I have not tried because everyone around here uses Strava..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Top app for cycling dataI’ve been with RWGPS for many years and they are definitely the market leader. The app is great, easy to use and well maintained, while the support is second to none. 5 stars isn’t enough..Version: 3.0.1
✓ Best bike navigation site availableI’ve been using ride with gps since it first became available. I bike tour all over the world 4-6 months a year for past 15 years and develop all my routes on my PC and download routes to my Garmin Edge daily. I’ve used a Garmin Edge as my bike navigation device since ride with gps became available which has greatly been a life saver navigating through major cities in the world. Following my routes I develop on ride with gps, I’ve never had a problem. I like how I now can save all my routes in archive and collections..Version: 2.8.3
✓ RWGPS AND TOURINGI have been using it for past two years and I am very impressed with the quality of the product. I have toured in Ontario for 4 and 6 night trips using RWGPS turn by turn feature. Their help line is great,I was having issues with planning a route, not only did I get help she made a video on how to do it and sent it to me. That’s great customer support..Version: 3.3.1
✓ Better than others I’ve tried but not perfectBeen using RWGPS premium for 3 years with my Wahoo Elemnt and the app keeps improving. So happy too finally have the route archiving feature! The weak part for me is the self generated route cues... hopeless. Many times a right turn should be straight ahead of left right or whatever. I briefly tried navigating by audio through a earpiece....total disaster. Sent the wrong way time and time again. However aside from that no issues at all and route planning on my computer is way ahead of the likes of Komoot in terms of ease of editing, checking street view and adding custom cues etc. I only add my own cues. Would be nice if POI’s showed on my Wahoo as I rode and not just cues..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Best I’ve used.I’ve used several cycling apps and RWGPS is my favorite so far. The user interface is well thought out - I especially like the volume slider on the ride progress screen. The company has been responsive with improvements. Their online route planning tool is easy to use and very helpful in Planning new routes as well as reviewing existing routes in advance. I find the spoken directions very helpful. It’s also great that many organized events use RWGPS: it makes it simple to download and view course maps..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Great app for mapping and sharingBut how about a link to Strava data? RWGPS complements the more limited route planning capabilities of Strava, but Strava is where I log my rides.Version: 2.0.2
✓ Good riding appBrilliant riding app. Gives accurate information and times/kilometers etc. love the ability to put photos on routes. Easy to use.Version: 2.1.7
✓ Great directionsGot it for turn by turn directions and they are excellent. I just ride with one AirPod in my ear and it navigates me at around routes I’ve never done before with spoken instructions in my ear. Works perfectly. Would be great if I could sync my rides directly to Strava as most of my friends use that..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Couldn’t be happierI’m very grateful my son recommended this app. When I am home, I can see the map screen and see exactly where I’m going. I can also listen to the audio cues which are extremely helpful and well timed. I can even go in and create my own audio cues wherever I want them, and then, when I’m writing, I will hear those cues. another thing I like about this is that you can record every trip, and then edit the trip into a route if you wish. If you use the route planner, you’ll have access to many other routes used by others. And also records your own routes, and gives you a heat map of your routes and those taken by others. You’ll know the distance and elevation as you plan around, and if you’re just winging it, you’ll have that data recorded and you can turn a ride into a route. I’m not sure what else anyone would want..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Strava sucksThis app is so much better because it doesn’t lie to you from the beginning.Version: 2.1.13
✓ Ride with GPS the best cycling appI have tried several cycling apps for planning and navigating my cycling trips across Ontario, Quebec and abroad and RidewithGPS is the best. The customer support is also very good. They are responsive and knowledgeable..Version: 3.0.16
✓ Just enjoying cycling againI had to give up cycling after a hip replacement had some complications. But four years later I bought an ebike after a young man in a bike shop suggested it would get me back cycling. Did it!!! So now I want to get out and about it made sense to get some tech for planning rides. RWGPS was suggested as a good companion app for my Wahoo so here we are. Just enjoying cycling again 😁.Version: 2.1.7
✓ Getting better!Keep up the upgrades, the app is getting better and better..Version: 2.5.1
✓ PerfectBetter than any bike app I have found.Version: 3.2.2
✓ RWGPS - The BEST!!I started using the free version of RWGPS in 2011 for developing routes and exporting the routes to develop cue sheets for a bike club that I lead rides for. After a couple of years of being really satisfied with the online app I subscribed to the top level to thank the developers and to unlock a few of the new added features. When they added the Event feature, which allows one to show multiple rotes on a single screen, the app went to a new level. When the mobile app was made available I set my Garmin aside and use the phone app to follow routes and record rides. Great map screen to follow routes and stats while riding. I’ve used Map My ride and Strava, but none compare to the features of RWGPS. Thanks and keep up the great work!!.Version: 2.0.4
✓ Takes the stress out of navigationI hesitated before paying for a premium subscription, but now I am glad I did. It took a while to learn how to plan routes, but I have now got the hang of it. I love being able to share the route and the turn instructions with friends before we go on a ride. On the road, turn by turn directions are timely and accurate ( once I had managed to work out how to turn the volume up! ). I can’t pretend this app is essential, but I genuinely love it and it makes rides stress free and fun again..Version: 2.6.4
✓ Best cycling app I have foundI have been using ridewithgps since 2015 and it has become my favorite cycling app and website. It allows me to plan safe routes for my rides in advance and then use my smart phone to navigate the route on my bike. It logs my ride, shows me stats, gives me audible turn by turn directions, shows me the elevation profile and much more. I used the free version for years and it met all of my needs. Last year I upgraded to paid version so that my wife (and friends) can track my rides in real time so that she knows I’m safe, which is well worth the money for me. Photos taken while logging a ride can be embedded into the route, which is a nice feature. I recently had a problem with the app where it wouldn’t go into navigation mode. I was frustrated as it was the only time in over four years the app didn’t work flawlessly. I emailed tech support and they immediately responded. One of the company founders called me on a Saturday morning and helped get it working for me. They then updated the app to fix the bug. Because of their excellent customer service and the unique features of the app I rate them five stars without hesitation..Version: 2.0.2
✓ Great AppHave used this app for a couple of years now and it is my go-to app for planning cycling routes. I also use it for navigating whilst on the bike, with headphones to listen to verbal cues - much better than anything I have seen on Garmin or Strava for routes..Version: 2.0.2
✓ AppBrilliant app easy to use for planning routes to expensive to buy at £58 per year there’s cheaper out there sorry..Version: 3.0.15
✓ Best bike ride planner & trackerRideWithGPS is my favourite app for planning and tracking bike rides. The ability to draw and edit routes is amazingly powerful, and I’ve recently learned that you can upload them instantly to my Garmin 1030 with IQ..Version: 3.3.1
✓ Best Cycling AppI have been using this app for about a year now and it is fabulous. I’m 73 and it provides all of the stats that I want and need. I use a Wahoo Element Bolt on my bike which is paired to the Wahoo Element app in my iPhone. In that app I have selected Ridewithgps to receive my entire ride data as soon as I finish. That said, Ridewithgps receives my ride data almost immediately. Full disclosure, I am a retired IT Pro so I do access my ride data directly contained in the Bolt from time to time if I do need to make an add or correction. It helps your overall accuracy if you also have that skill..Version: 3.0.15
✓ Amazing cycling app!First off let me say that their customer service is second to no one in this day of pretty poor customer service all around for any kind of company this is is the very best. Secondly, I want to say their app is amazing. It has more cycling metrics than I’ve ever seen even more than training peaks. I’ve been cycling for seven years as a top 1% high mileage cyclist in the world, and I’ve not never heard of this app before not until I switced to wahoo did I discover it! Great complement to any of the other cycling apps out there.Version: 3.1.7
✓ Great FunctionalityBut..... I would rather pay a once off payment for the app . At the moment I pay $117AUD per annum! Very expensive. How about introducing a lifetime once off payment option? Or a once off payment with a nominal additional fee to download updates at users discretion?.Version: 2.1.14
✓ Love it!This app rocks simple to use and very useful. I love the route making I preplan all my long touring routes and press navigate. bravo ride with gps bravo..Version: 3.0.17
✓ Great appGreat apps works really well. Recording rides and planning routes is easy. Well done guys..Version: 2.5.4
✓ Just started with GPSI guess most riders and runners go to Strava as it is the big name. I changed due to pricing and surprisingly I have found GPS far better with more features. I would highly recommend..Version: 2.1.14
✓ Great appEasy to use.Version: 2.1.15
✓ Ride with GPS RatingI am giving Ride with GPS four stars. As a rider new to creating my own routes, it was fairly straightforward and I have found the routes easy to follow. As a navigation tool, Ride with GPS has assisted me with all of my club rides and is a great tool to pair (use in tandem) with my Wahoo Element. While my Element provides the information I want as I begin a climb, for example, Ride with GPS is there to tell me when to expect an upcoming turn so that I can prepare for a change in the route. Together, these tools have been very useful and effective for my rides. Overall, I like Ride with GPS. My club riders all seem to be using Strava. I’m happy staying with Ride with GPS for now..Version: 3.2.5
✓ RoutesGreat for setting up a route to navigate and then seeing the metrics of your ride Also different map types give u that bit of extra help deciding if the route is suitable or not. A really good app.Version: 2.1.14
✓ Great planning and navigation tool, on and off-road.I use it when cycling, on the MTB and also riding on the motorcycle..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Works flawlessly with my iPhoneEasy to set up, easy to initiate a ride. Good library of rides from others covering everywhere. Saves all your personal rides. Only complaint is it won’t link to a Fitbit to record heart rate (links to others — given how slapdash the Fitbit software is, I’d put it down to them). With a heart rate monitor it adjusts the calorie count against an HR algorithm. Output file includes speed, gps, altitude profile, other more obtuse measurements. The compilation of rides will give totals vs calendar limits. All in all a useful robust tool..Version: 3.1.4
✓ Love itAfter fluffing around with my fancy Garmin I came across this app through a reliable reference. Since then, with spectacular customer service helping my get the most out of the App - including king trip battery life - I’m absolutely in love with it. I use a Quadlock to put my phone on bars and have learnt how to use audio to run route directions. It’s so good when you get an App that’s better than expected. Brilliant.Version: 3.0.17
✓ Helped me get to 1,000,000’ climbedI love this app and only wish I’d started tracking sooner. I bought a fat bike in 2016 and shortly thereafter, I got this app. When I kept forgetting to turn it off after my ride, I realized I could edit those rides if I became a premium subscriber. And so I did and I’m glad I did. Then, I realized in 2020 that I was closing in on 1,000,000 vertical feet climbed. That became my end goal and in late 2021, I hit it! Now, with an eBike, my goal this year is to ride 300,000’. For a roadie, that’s probably not a big goal. But on single track, I think it is - and I’m over 60. I love the heat maps that were added and am trying to figure out how to make my new bike the default bike so I don’t have to go in and change it every time. (The developer got back to me right away with good directions on how to change the default bike, so thanks to whomever wrote back)..Version: 3.0.2
✓ Ride with GPSIve used this app for a few years now,its never let me down when I ride in new areas.Aside from all the features the customer support is amazing,they respond quickly🚴👍.Version: 3.0.17
✓ Excellent appReally useful app if you’re a keen road biker. Links well to the related website which is excellent for mapping cycle routes and creating routing files for the Garmin..Version: 2.0.3
✓ Awesome App 👍Awesome ride app, used it ever since I started riding and now it’s got more features available 👍.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Excellent app, privacy optionsSwitched to this app after another popular one required an account and has a terrible privacy policy. Does everything I need, with third party sensors of all kinds. One issue crept in a couple of updates ago. On the top line of a ride detail page, a 21-minute ride shows as “0:21 mins” which looks like an error. Previously rides would show minutes and seconds. Now only minutes. My rides are always under 25 minutes and I need to see the seconds..Version: 3.0.8
✓ Works amazing for long distance touringThis tool is exactly what I needed for planning and navigating long distance bike routes. I just finished a 400 mile route using this app, and this app was a huge help. It was really useful because I was not familiar with the area. The planner with all the biking maps was really helpful in figuring out which routes to take. The navigation was also essential for following the route. I’m glad I switched from Google maps and other mapping tools I was using..Version: 3.0.17
✓ A standout - and constantly working on being good at one thingIt’s not perfect, it gets 5 stars for being the best and being committed to improving the service. Well worth the money..Version: 2.1.16
✓ At the topI have loved RWGPS for 4 years now. Although the free version was adequate I like a few paid features and at 5 bucks a month I want to support a company that has a great product and wonderful customer service. I didn’t realize how superb the product was until this summer on a weeklong supported ride we were provided with a garmin. Not even close. And the 2 times I needed app help (70 yo and not digital native) the email was responded to within hours. Grateful for this app that enhances my route planning and riding..Version: 2.8.3
✓ Excellent and must have Cycling ToolIf you are new to Cycling or quite experienced this is a fantastic App that gives you the ability to master new routes easily. The turn by turn commentary allows the rider to concentrate on the road instead of the map. This is the best App I have subscribed to all year and worth every cent..Version: 2.3.5
✓ Better than anything else I have used...Awesome app, so much functionality, best app I have used for route planning and the integration with Varia is just brilliant..Version: 3.2.8
✓ Great appItDoes the job. Gives me accurate data on every ride sufficient for my needs. Maps could be better using OS maps But overall very satisfied with accuracy and performance..Version: 2.1.22
✓ Beautiful appThis app is way better than Strava. I find not so user friendly which this app did well with navigating menus and setting everything up..Version: 3.0.7
✓ Great appGreat app full of fun routes.Version: 3.1.14
✓ Great app for cyclingI’m a beginner/intermediate rider and I love this app. Paired with my Apple Watch this gives me everything I need. Time, heart rate, mileage, elevation, speed. The route planner on mobile and web is incredibly easy to use. One other nice feature is that when a friend creates a route you can see it. It makes sharing routes so easy. I’ve noticed it used very little data during your routes, which is a nice plus. Turn by turn navigation and offline maps are both paid features but I don’t consider them requirements and the pricing seems reasonable to me. Great app, simple to use great interface!.Version: 2.1.16
✓ To me - best GPS appHave tinkered with many GPS apps - for recording a ride/hike/c-country ski… this app shows the route i took, stats about the ride (including altitude!), and i can save them for later reference. the basic is great for me - and no ads!!! i’ve looked for ways to pay for this app but it only had a subscription fee - to use other features. ie - i’d happily have paid something - just for the features i use. Great job! Suggestion - would be cool if had categories. e.g. hiking. At times i might b climbing and the app doesn’t record that i’m moving - i’m guessing because my forward movement is too slow..Version: 2.6.9
✓ ExcellentBeen using this for a while now and it’s really excellent. The webpage and now the app has great route planning . I use the wahoo elemnt which downloads the rides and syncs routes beautifully. Customer service for technical queries is the best I have ever used. Brilliant. Only recently the live logging is not as good as it was but this might be my friends internet connection not the system..Version: 2.1.10
✓ My GPS assistThis app keeps all my riding data organized and tabulated and allows me to go back and compare efforts on the same ride or hill to allow me to gauge what kind of shape I am in and to mark my progress. It’s also very useful for ride planning as I can understand how much climbing and distance I’ll see on a planned ride. It gives me fairly accurate estimated ride times. I can share these plans with others and load the routes into my bike computer which then can guide me regarding the turns. Quite useful on unfamiliar roads..Version: 2.1.12
✓ Most ExcellentMy favourite route planning app. Tried Komoot and Strava, didn’t like either. Used this in Provence and it always got me home. That was the free version - bargain. Now upgraded to use the full suite of metrics..Version: 2.1.12
✓ VERY ACCURATE & ENJOYABLEI used another app, I was not pleased almost from the beginning, so pleased I switched..Version: 2.5.2
✓ Great App for Recording and Garmin Varia RadarSo far I’ve only used the free version. It’s good for recording your route, distance, meters climbed, time etc. It supports the Garmin Varia Radar, which works really well. Not many apps support it. This one does and it’s great to have that little side bar. I haven’t used navigation, route planning, or any of the other paid features yet. I’ve used Strava as well. I think I prefer Ride with GPS because it supports my rear radar. Strava has more “social” - competing with your mates and randoms features. But I’m just a casual rider so far and not competitive. I hear you can export your rides/routes/stats to Strava so sounds like you can have it all with a bit of a mess around..Version: 2.3.5
✓ Reliable and easy to useI’ve used it since 2018 … never disappointed and very satisfied !.Version: 3.1.1
✓ Great stuff for what i need to know about my ride!…and I am using the free version and good enough info..Version: 3.2.6
✓ A fantastic bike packing appI’ve been using this app for a few years to plan and ride bike packing trips and it has been brilliant. The array of maps available to plan a route is very comprehensive and detailed. The functionality of the route planning features are seamless and this makes it a fun process, as it should be. Navigation is easy and I’ve never had a problem uploading routes to a GPS unit (Garmin Edge and GPS Map). Using the app and desktop versions is a breeze and the customer service is next level. This app is brilliant..Version: 2.6.1
✓ Great GPS for cyclistsUse it as my default, as does my club which helps. The only disappointment is that you can’t plot a route on an iPad/phone (need a mouse) this has cost a star.Version: 2.0.2
✓ Ease of useExcellent resource for setting up routes for my group. I have a good knowledge of the Victoria area, so l hope others might also benefit from rides and routes l’ve recorded on this site..Version: 2.1.14
✓ This is the oneI set out looking for a cycling app that did three things. 1. Show map and stats on my smartphones. 2. Utilize Apple Watch heart rate sensor. (This requires you to enable the feature in the app settings) 3. Works with my duotrap sensor. If you want these things, and haven’t found this app yet, you can finish your search. This app is too good. It was annoying that the heart rate on Apple Watch was not on by default, but once I got it turned on, everything works reliably. I pre-paired my duotrap from the Bluetooth settings in the app, then just start a recording and the app automatically pops up on my Apple Watch with the stats. I love it. This is what I want. I am happy..Version: 3.0.3
✓ Great Riding App and Even Better CompanyI have been a premium subscriber for years. The route planning tools and turn by turn navigation are top notch. The ability to log rides and mileage help me keep track of my fitness. Recent upgrades allow me to route plan on my iPad with ease. As for the company, in 2020 I lost my job due to COVID, and cancelled my subscription and Ride with GPS inquired as to why? When I explained my situation they extended me a free membership until I got my feet back on the ground. Great App and even better people..Version: 3.1.14
✓ Ride with GPSEnjoying using Ride with GPS, although still getting used to it. I am currently finding it better then Strava. Upgraded to Premium..Version: 2.6.10
✓ Solid app, with room for improvementI use Ride with GPS on all my bike rides instead of a dedicated bike computer. The app is rock for logging and navigation, and never crashes. Weaknesses: 🫤 The trip planner has a strong tendency to pick side roads and gravel trails, which makes it impractical for planning long tours. 🫤 Sluggish performance when dealing with routes longer than 200 km. 🫤 Needs better integration with Siri and Automations (e.g. to start trip logging with an NFC tap or voice command). 🫤 Some navigation prompts can be "myopic" and verbose. For example, when going through a roundabout it might instruct you to take multiple sharp turns in quick succession, when it could provide more sensible instructions by considering a longer range. 🫤 On the map, the solid red route obscures road names, and if you try to zoom in to read the road name, the label moves. The route line should be translucent, or the road names should appear on a foreground layer..Version: 3.2.4
✓ Super appliSuper appli et excellent rapport qualité prix. Fonctionne partout dans le monde et accès à des routes partout aussi. Conservation des statistiques d’année en année. Je recommande fortement cette application..Version: 3.2.7
✓ Ride With GPS is the bestI’ve been using RWGPS for years. Creating a route is very easy and really helpful. Navigation on a ride is right on, and syncing with cycle computers is easy. I love the record keeping that lets me view my stats by month, year, and career. Our club (The Lehigh Wheelmen) uses RWGPS as our preferred app for club rides. The club feature allows us to maintain a library of over 100 LWA rides. A very useful feature on club routes is the Tag option which helps members find routes from specific start locations. The support team at RWGPS is the best in the industry, questions are answered promptly and in detail. I highly recommend RWGPS if you are looking for a cycling app..Version: 2.1.17
✓ My goto bike appHave used many apps before but RWGPS does everything I need in one app. I can plan routes easily Import routes from other apps and have to cuesheet automatically created. All my bike Bluetooth sensors are supported and work There is a live sharing so my partner can see where I am when I’m out solo riding Turn by turn directions Customisable dashboard allowing me to choose the stats I want to see when out on a ride. Even integrates with the Garmin varia rtl515 rear facing radar and light. I haven’t tried that yet but will probably add that to the list of gizmos to buy..Version: 2.5.0
✓ Pretty goodI've been using this paired with a Wahoo RFLKT display. It's pretty good. The screen integration with the RFLKT is not as customisable as the Wahoo or Cyclemeter apps but then again neither of them can do turn by turn navigation instructions. The best bit of RidewithGPS has always been the mapping and planning side of the website, but now with this app the recording and navigating side out on the road is there as well. Be aware that the navigation cues are entirely based on a preplanned track and can't re-calculate like a proper driving app, but it does have an "off course" alarm. I don't find the controls as intuitive as say the Strava or Cyclemeter apps but you get used to them. Also quite a steep subscription price but worth it if you were riding on unfamiliar roads away from your home town..Version: 1.3.2
✓ Easy PeasieI’ve been using RWGPS on my iPhone for 6 years and wouldn’t be without it. I often lead club rides and partake in far away Audax rides. Using RWGPS is so easy to plot and/or follow routes enabling me to focus more on enjoying the ride rather than navigating. I love it 👍.Version: 3.4.2
✓ 5 Stars Aren’t EnoughI’d rate RWGPS ten stars if I could. The mobile app is a great addition to the web-based version. I plan out my routes on the web version and seamlessly upload them to my Garmin Edge for navigation and metrics capture. The app is packed with features that make me a more confident cyclist, especially when riding outside of my local area. Features such as heat maps, elevation profiles, and riding surfaces come in handy when planning routes. Finding and loading routes from other cyclists is a great way to explore. Additionally, many organized rides use RWGPS for managing their routes, and it’s much more convenient than following a paper cue sheet. The developers continue to add more features, making this app better all the time..Version: 3.0.17
✓ Daily RideI have just been recommended this app. I have used it twice and it ticks all the boxes. I’m sure the paid version will be better but I’m sticking with this for the time being..Version: 2.0.4
✓ Totally enjoy this app.This app.. was introduced to me by my bike club and I have thoroughly enjoyed its use every time I get in the road. I keep track of my progress, I can save my favourite rides and add pictures if so desired. I can even compete (against myself or others), and I always know where I am/going..Version: 2.1.17
✓ GhnmjjGhhh.Version: 2.1.10
✓ Mr Kamen AtanassovPros: All good and intuitive Cons: calories count missing.Version: 2.1.17
✓ Best bike riding appI have tried several apps after researching even more, checking to see which ones have the features I would want and expect to find in a app to log my biking activity. So far this is by far the best I have found and love it. I do hope that they add more support for ebikes, but as it is, it is adequate for even that. I love the route planning feature for picking her out and showing me the road type and distance. I love that when you start recording it records where you’ve been and logs it. I love that you can send planned routes to your device and it will prompt you with navigation for where to turn on your route. You can connect with friends that you ride with so that you can share your planned routes..Version: 3.0.17
✓ Handlebar view?Using ride with gps and find it really good to cycle from resia on the Austrian border to Verona. Using it with a group but my apple download doesn’t seem to have handlebar mode facility which is useful for things like the screen on when nearing a turn or when hand waved near phone or keep screen on all the time and to lock orientation. Would be useful or am I missing something?.Version: 3.0.7
✓ Navigate long ridesSince join Audax Queensland in late 2018, I have become reacquainted with RWGPS and it is the failsafe for navigating those long routes. You need a little navigation nouse, but mostly you just switch it on at the start and it gives you all the turn-by-turn prompts and you can simultaneously see the que card. It can be get a little confused at cross-overs, but once you get past that it tirelessly resumes on the proper course. Strava can do some of the same but not nearly as well. You can share the ride data with Strava for better social features, but you can get by with only RWGPS but I don’t think you can get by with just Strava..Version: 2.1.2
✓ Best GPS mapping appHighly recommend this app for route planning, navigation and logging rides..Version: 3.0.6
✓ Best Cycling AppI was a long-time Strava user until they stopped supporting Bluetooth devices. That spurred me to look at other options. I have to thank Strava for that, because other than user base, Strava is inferior to Ride With GPS in nearly every other way. I honestly have no idea how these folks have made such a wonderful app while remaining relatively unknown. Kudos to your team for the great work you’ve done. The only complaint I have is the name. Come up with something a bit more catchy, and I think you’ll unseat the king in no time..Version: 2.1.10
✓ Slow, doesn’t recalculateI paid for this, and in the rural areas, worked fine. In suburbs where turning happens frequently if you miss a turn, no recalculation. I almost got into accidents multiple times having to look at map rather than the audio. Need more info - are the roads heavy traffic or quiet. How hilly is the route and can you go around and minimize some of the intense hills. Had a positive experience in the Adirondacks with this, and a terrible experience in NJ. Really disappointed in this..Version: 3.2.8
✓ Good app, good route planning, good sat-nav. Could be better though...Overall, I love it and it’s well worth a try/buy. In terms of areas for improvement: (1) Sat-Nav should give guidance when you deviate from route. It’s too easy to miss a turn and then not pick up on it for a while. RE routing would help enormously. (2) The route planning does a really good job, but sometimes takes road bikes onto some pretty un-road-bike-friendly terrain. Would be better if I had faith that it’d be smooth tarmac all the way. (3) The omission of adding in stops to the first tier of subscription seems a bit mean..Version: 2.1.17
✓ Great appJust perfect for planning and executing. Also The help section is so well built - easy to find information and explains features so well. Well done..Version: 2.1.14
✓ Great app with excellent tech supportUsed this app on and off for over a year. I have been so impressed with the immediate support for the couple of problems I’ve had with this app working with other apps. So nice to get that kind of fast, realia le support. Definitely recommend..Version: 3.3.2
✓ Pretty great with caveatThis app is very useful and fairly user friendly. It lets me easily plan routes and then provides navigation along the route so I don’t get lost. It keeps track of all your rides and even pushes them to the apple fitness app so you don’t have to enter them yourself. Only thing I wish I could figure out is how to keep the screen on while using it without changing system settings each time. The screen shuts off and I have to unlock my phone again to see my speed and other ride data. Kinda bugs me that features my isn’t coded in. (Or if it is, I can’t find it).Version: 2.6.9
✓ Great route planning appI cycle around 10,000 miles a year in the UK and Europe, I tried several other route planning apps but they can’t touch this one. Once saved the route downloads to my Wahoo ELemnt Bolt automatically!.Version: 2.0.1
✓ Great trail finderUse it all the time to find trails to ride when I’m travelling..Version: 3.2.9
✓ Love the app, wish there was better segment/social networking supportI am so grateful for the RideWithGPS app. I’ve ridden over 7,000 miles with its assistance over the last 2 years. Routing is fairly seemless, though there is some serious memory hogging through the website platform in Safari and Chrome on Mac(save regularly!). I am recently disappointed by load failures in the segment portion of both mobile and browser platforms. Segment data often does not load, mobile notifications and emails open empty pages in app and browser, and it is difficult to find or create new segments. In a huge cycling community like NYC, it would be great to have better social integration in this regard. PLEASE don’t become Strava or anything so Facebookish, but the segment section is the one area that UI improvement could help connect cyclists riding similar routes, for fun and safety (buddy system for the win!). Thank you again for such a great app🙏 Final feedback is more for Garmin - make Edge 1030 Plus more seemless with RWGPS; without an internet connection, it is difficult to share routes created in the app and routing through the garmin connect app pales in comparison to RWGPS on mobile🤌.Version: 2.8.3
✓ Better than the restUsed strava for years and was happy until I moved to this. Great control over route design and great interface with googlemaps..Version: 3.4.11
✓ Mark GittinsUse RwGPS for ride planning and as my personal record of my rides. Rides upload automatically from Garmin Connect with never any problem. I also use RwGPS to record and plan maintenance for each of my bikes. Makes my life much easier and I love it..Version: 2.0.1
✓ Live activitiesLive the app. I would love to see the programmers make use of the iPhonés « Live Activities » feature. Combined with the always on display of the lastest models, it would make it possible to see ride stats, signals and other info without touching the phone..Version: 3.2.6
✓ Love RWGPSBeen with these guys from the beginning and seen a good site for planning and logging my long cycle rides move from brilliant to better than brilliant. I’m a techno phobe how it all works is all ‘Harry Potter’ to me, but I can work it. I use the site to plan or to get ride routes from other like minded long distance cyclists. These are easily married up to my Wahoo device. The only slight niggle is when planning do check using the orange man, that your route is actually where you want it. The site is for all cyclists and I have been met with a bridle way with my road bike! So planning a distance event in an unknown part of the Uk has to be checked before you find your on the Dales Way instead of a lovely bit o tarmac. But all in all. I couldn’t plan and cycle without these guys!.Version: 2.1.17
