Ride Spot by PeopleForBikes Reviews

Good app BUT!

I’ve been using the app for a few years now and it is great for logging and keeping track of individual bikes BUT when completing the challenges and submitting them the suppose of rewards never come through as advertised.

Poorly designed

Doesn’t import data well nor sync to challenges. Phony attempts to recruit people for causes just to get their personal information and data.

Integration lacks

I would like to see some integration with apple health/fitness. Or be able to manually enter a ride based off of that information. Sometimes we forget to start both trackers, and need a way to earn credit for them. I like the ride tracking ability. I don’t use routes or anything other than tracking and sharing rides. I like that you can add pictures, riders and text to give some context to your ride.

If half of a great app useful?

This app has so e of the best social programing. Unfortunately its lack of integration with apple watch, apple health makes it so that only the most attentive users can remember to start their daily rides in the app. After forgetting to hit record on my ride for the third tine in a week, i decided to wait until the app has better mapping and i integration with apple health. We need a better app for daily riders. Onespot for social, strava for mapping, apple health for ride detection and whatever your state uses for their bike miles incentive program. In the end i keep rolling back to apple health with my apple watch.

Can’t add a ride you didn’t log live

I didn’t see a way to add a ride that I didn’t record in the app. There should be a way to add a ride. Especially since my phone records all activity.

Talk with other apps

I would enjoy this a lot more if I could upload from Garmin or Strava or…

Useless…

Other apps are easier to use and make a lot more sense. Will delete ASAP!

Why?

I installed the app as a show of support for People for Bikes, but will remove it. Ride with GPS, Strava, and Garcin Connect offer more functionality. It's too bad that PfB didn't partner with one of the.

Ride Spot keeps me going

Best part of the Ride Spot App? The fun monthly challenges. It’s just another reason to get on your bike and keep riding all year long. This app has really motivated me to keep riding even in cold weather. I also enjoy the data available to me: how far I’ve gone this week/month/year. The challenges usually involve earning a fun patch or other random swag, and who doesn’t love free stuff?

So frustrating

I had to delete my best ride because I didn’t add cadence before I rode. I had to ask what that even was. I’m an amateur rider and thought this app would be fun to track my rides. Tried to contact support but just got endless loop of click here. Go back to here. Back to MapMyRide I guess.
