Not working

The keyboard for the app is not working. I updated my phone to see if was a fault from my phone but after I updated my phone the keyboard for this app still did not work and it was unresponsive. I have no other problem using the keyboards and the screen on my phone for other apps. So I couldn't type at all in order for me to use the app! Would like this to be fixed pleased as I am very keen to try this app.

Handy app

Very handy app. I really like the route suggestions for a more bike friendly route. Much better than the routes Google Maps give for cyclists... I only wish that the app used Google or Apple maps instead of OpenMaps and the Bikemap app default. The Google Maps on the web version is great, please update the app to include it.
Update: just recently with one of the updates, the routing is messed up… It used to be very accurate with finding the best routes, but that is no longer the case… for example, I will choose a “balanced” route which will tell me it will take 45 minutes. So I will switch it to do the “fastest” route, and it then tells me that same destination will be 56 minutes… it will do this with almost every destination I try to route too… it’s becoming pretty useless, since Apple Maps usually finds a better route now. Not sure what changed, since it used to be great and very accurate. But not so much now. Please fix!

Best in class.

One of the best mapping app. Just wondering can it recalculate route on the fly ? Because listening to “continue” for about 10 minutes is a bit annoying if you get of track. Another thing I’d like to improve is to have ability to change language for voice commands. I live in UK, but listening to names of streets in foreign language is terrible. So the app could stay in polish but I’d like to have English as voice. Otherwise great and thank you for the app. I discovered many cycling routes I didn’t know about.

Good but update ruins it

Very good app however the update to the style of map means it is now harder to differentiate between types of bike lanes. Moreover you can’t find out what the smaller bike lanes are called, only the national cycle routes are labelled. Please change back old map style!

How is there no option to hide/change username?

It’s automatically set my username to my full name and won’t let me change it or opt out of showing it to everyone on the app publicly... I don’t understand how they don’t have an account settings option where you can do this and it makes me not want to use the app at all!

Not bike friendly

As someone currently travelling full time on my bike I found this app not useful at all. Was very awkward to get offline maps and the route planning is clunky. Then the navigation is slow and doesn’t really work well when in a built up area as your always too far ahead of the instructions.

So angering

I really wanted this app to work for me. I commute through London and need a strong navigator. This app constantly directs me to turn onto streets that I’m currently on, sends me through a right turn at the last minute and can’t seem to actually pinpoint where I am. It gives me odd routes with too many turns, and doesn’t seem to know where the MAIN route is. I almost threw my phone when it sent me in absolute circles one night. Literal CIRCLES. I hate it.

Absolutely shocking directions whilst on “Navigate”.
Several times the App told me to turn left or right when I was supposed to go the opposite direction.
This bug of telling you 20 metres AFTER the turn really needs fixing.
First time I used this app and possibly the last!

Voice feedback volume

The voice feedback volume was extremely low to the point of being unusable. Interestingly, when I finished the trip on my Garmin watch, the volume increased to normal. Can’t find anything on google to solve this, so the app is basically unusable to me. It’s a shame because it seems to have the potential to be great.

Terrible app

It seems to be impossible to cancel your account on this app before the free trial has ended. On your account settings there isn’t an option to delete your account and when you go to help it says deleting the app won’t cancel your account and subscription- you will be charged anyway. Seems to be a total scam!

Some good points but needs improving

I have used this for a few days since buying a bike for the first time in quite a while and wanted something to ensure I was able to get out on my bike and not get lost. Some really good points are you can import routes from other sites and even using an iPad you can easily create routes. However the planner will sometimes take you on a circuitous route, taking you on a parallel road when there is no reason for this. The free version allows sat nav with voice prompts. However, I have experienced issues when using the sat nav:
1. On occasions the sat nav does not follow the route and diverts off for no reason. I had to recheck to make sure that my route was not incorrect which it wasn’t but the navigation rerouted the same diversion every time. I have had to close the app and use Googlemaps when trying to make a specific time to meet with a friend.
2. Time estimate is wildly inaccurate sometimes. One route I was following estimated over two and half hours for a 13 mile route when a 32 mile route the previous day had correctly estimated about three hours - it took 2hrs 50 minutes
3. On occasions the Sat nav stops following the route and reroutes to the beginning. The 32 mile route rerouted to the start point after about 7 miles and starting the navigation again did not resolve the issue but directed me to the start point. I had to open up the map which does allow you to show your location but obviously does not give turn by turn navigation.
I would be tempted to upgrade to the premium version but will not do so until I can be confident that the app is working correctly and I can trust the guidance.

Absolutely brilliant!

Have used this app non stop the last few weeks to get out and about cycling. So easy to use - best app there is for finding cycle paths or smaller safer roads. Really like planning routes too and being able to save them and use whenever. Not sure what the issue is with making an account, I find it useful to see the rides I’ve done and the rides I plan to do. I’m only using the free version too so for all the information I get FOR FREE it’s fantastic. Couldn’t ask for more for a cycling navigation app, and, if you do want to ask for more the developers seem more than happy to engage in discussion. Thank you.

Rohirrim

So bad it’s actually dangerous

Probably the worst app for navigation ever created.
Tells you to turn onto the road as your at the mouth of it.
Tells you to take random left and right turns based on nothing.
Suggests to cross a roundabout the wrong way around and then turn back on yourself.
Every road entering or leaving a roundabout is counted as an exit - for good measure I guess. It told me to take exit 5 on a roundabout that only had 3 exits.
Told me to cut through a block of flats and take a sharp right onto the pavement.
And if you don’t believe it I’ve got one of my favourite screenshots ever now thanks to this app.
AVOID IT! For your own good.

Hi,
I havent had the chance to actually map a route yet. I have selected a few I like which run close to my house in battersea but each time I initiate the navigation and ask to be taken to the nearest point it still directs me to the start of the route?

Great for short trips, buggy on longer rides

I have used Bikemap for a while to navigate around London and have found it brilliant for that. I upgraded to Premium so that I could plan longer trips out in the countryside where I live. I have found it to be buggy and lacking in key functionality compared to other apps I have tried particularly when using routes uploaded from GPX. Examples of issues:
- no way of knowing the direction of a route in the web app as there are no arrows. If you upload the route the wrong way round the navigation doesn’t work and you might not know this until you start your ride.
- trips randomly resetting to a much longer ETA (both distance and time)
- app has crashed losing all routes both off and online until phone has reconnected to the internet. Not great when in the middle of nowhere. I thought having offline routes would allow a route to be accessed even if no internet connection but this is not the case.
- distance is shown in miles despite setting to km
- speed is mile/hour but units shown as km/h. I have checked this against my Garmin.
As things stand I cannot rely on Bikemap for longer trips until it is more stable.

Frustrating experience too

I paid for one month subscription so that I could download a particular route on Bikemap which I had found that I wanted to do. Firstly I changed from miles to km in settings but when I would ride it would only show it in miles. Secondly I was about 13km into my ride when the App just flashed at me and switched off. I kept having to stop, go back into the App and find the offline route again and start it again and then as soon as I start riding it would flash at me and go out of the App. I eventually deleted the App and re-installed it but it made no difference. I have other Apps and other cycling Apps (now) which do not do this. I eventually deleted it again and installed ridewithGPS which was a much better choice. No issues. I won’t be using Bikemap again.

Frustrating experience

I use the internet based of BikeMap to pick routes when I cycle abroad and it’s very good. I was expecting similar things from the app but they seems very disconnected. For instance the app’s point-to-point route builder is great...but you can’t save the routes you make like that, so can’t make them available offline ( a feature designed to save battery life and data usage 👍). Whereas on the website you can’t build a route as easily, but you CAN save from there and access them via the app. That means you can make those routes available offline via the app...except it took me 3-5 attempts on each route to get it complete without errors. And then when I came to use an offline route, it didn’t work right...it just routed me back to the start point!! 🤯
So a great idea but too unreliable, basic features not in place, key functionality doesn’t work, and too disconnected from the website.

A useful app!

Like the app very much. Great routes recommended and used whilst cycling in the UK’s SW this week - avoiding dangerous busy roads which we had been led too by other route planners! The options for balanced routes versus distance or speed are a useful and appreciated function too.
If the zoomed mapping could be improved in future i would rate 5 stars....sadly at key points on our journey we took some wrong turns as the mapping did not automatically zoom to show sufficient detail... ended up having to do manually each time but not always easy when rolling fast downhill!
However, look forward to continued use and development updates.

Almost

I want to give this a 5 star but there are two fundamentals that need fixing.
Apple Watch app - it doesn’t count calories and isn’t ‘live’. For example when I tilt my wrist to see the data it takes 2 seconds to refresh and show me distance/time.
You cannot plan rides because you cannot change starting locations.
Everything else is amazing and hands down the best navigation out there.

Navigation seems to get confused all the time

Created a route that started by my house and went to a park and back. As soon as I started and hit the first (and last) waypoint, it said I had completed my ride. Had to stop and start various times to get it going again, then at some point it was trying to take me back along the return path before I was even 1/3 of the way to the park. Had to stop the route and just do on the fly navigation. Also the warnings for turning are sometimes way too slow and I have to stop and retrace my steps.

Total rubbish - cycle tracks that you can’t ride on.

One of the routes tells you to go up the Windsor ‘Long Walk’. Developers- I think there may be a clue in the name. Try that you and you will get arrested.

Haven’t got as far as riding anywhere yet...

Won’t let me sign in via email (Continue button is unresponsive). Fails to sign me in using Google. I refuse to try Facebook.
Very slow.
Shows me thumbnails of ‘routes nearby’ but when I click on them I eventually get “Route details could not be loaded. Please try again”. This is not a network issue; I’m at home, sitting next to the access point.
Having read some other reviews, I think I’ve tried enough times. I’ll go try something else instead.
