Ride with support watching.
The phone on the bars talks you through the day, shows your sensors, and keeps the people you choose up to date. They see where you are; you get on with riding.
On the bike
- Start riding? Route, bike and safety are checked before you go, with the ride’s weather.
- Spoken turn-by-turn, with the music turned down while it talks.
- Rerouting when you leave the line, a way around a closed road, and Go to finish to skip the rest of the day or stop short.
- Ride numbers that rotate through pages, including a wind dial relative to you and the radar. Portrait or landscape.
- Music controls on the riding screen: play, pause and skip without leaving the ride.
Sensors, live
Heart rate (strap or watch), power meter and rear radar. A sensor check before the ride warns you if one hasn’t woken up.
Pack Mode
Riders near you see your live numbers and you see theirs, phone to phone, with no signal needed.
Haptic buzzes
Each pattern means one thing: reroute, can’t reroute, stopped soon, SOS, crash countdown. You can feel it without looking.
Battery care
On a long day the phone can lock, and the app eases off by itself. A phone setup guide covers the settings that matter.
Live tracking
When you start a ride, the people you choose get a private link by email. No account, no sign-in.
- Followers see the live dot, the planned route, when you were last seen, your speed and your phone’s battery.
- Two lists: riders whose rides you follow, and everyone who gets your live link and SOS. Unfollow or remove anyone, any time.
- Out of coverage, your track is saved and sent when signal returns. The page says how long since it last heard from you.
- After the ride the page stays live for 30 minutes, then shows your public stats page.
Your rides and stats
Record
Start a ride in the app and it tracks, with your followers told. Save it to Apple Health as an Outdoor Cycle workout.
Bring in
Your whole Strava history from its export zip, or open a GPX, FIT or TCX file from Files, Mail or the share sheet.
Stats
What you’ve ridden, how hard and on what. Stats for each bike, too.
Ride Score
One number, 0 to 100, for how fit you are for a loaded day.
A public stats page, on your terms
Totals, trips and recent rides, with home trimmed off the map. It never shows anything live, planned trips, or your kit. Turn it off and the address opens nothing.
- Where you are now
- Trips you’re planning
- Your bikes and kit
- Anything inside your privacy zone
