Bike Tracks App Reviews

Nice App

Finally found a bike app I can actually read in bright sunlight! Worth buying. Great features. Only wish it had an auto-pause function.

Love apps

Your apps (Ski & Bike Tracks) are great and are spot on for the info a skier or biker would want. I just wish you would make one for trail running too. Ive tried Strava and Under Armors apps for trail running and they really are more for urban running. Your Bike app would do a better job at giving me the stats I want. Please make a trail running app!

Almost Outstanding

Unlike many geosynchronous apps, the locator is either "Always On", or "Never." I experience unnecessary and unwanted battery drain if I forget to turn location services off when Im done using it. I would like to see the option of location services activation "only when using the app." This wheel has been invented, and would fit nicely on this bicycle app.

Good, but not perfect

Both Ski Tracks and Bike Tracks are excellent apps when active, but both drain my battery when not in use. They would be perfect if they included location tracking "only when using the app”, like all other good geosynchronous apps. ;-)

Seriously great bike app.

Biketracks is my goto applicaiton for recording rides and providing summary historical information. I use Strava as well for comprtative information but I prefer the user interface and features of BikeTracks for a primary bike app. My only ask would be for a offline sync service similare to MyFitnessPal and Strava.

Great app!!

Best bike app yet!! Trialed during Ironman Triathlon training...way better than any of the other bike apps for battery life.

Best app out there so far

A lot of bike apps on the app store are decent. But this has topped them all. The others either lack the one thing you really need, such as offline maps, or theyre just too cluttered and filled with junk you just dont need. This however, has just about everything you could ask for. The plus for me is having the ability to store maps offline and be able to use them when on a ride. Right now, the only thing its lacking is a calorie counter. I sent and received an email from the lead developer himself and was informed that a calorie counter would be coming in a future release. Once that comes out, this would pretty much complete the app and have everything youd really need. So far, this app is worth re 3 dollars, and I dont buy too many apps from the app store either.

Close to perfection

Great app! If youre a skier you need these guys SKI TRACKS app. All in all, this bad boy is almost perfect - especially for a phone app. 99% of riders dont need a GPS if they have this. A few improvements Id love to see: 1)Position plotting - selectable intervals: I find that on tight switchbacks it misses turns because the interval is too long. It would be better if you could select the interval according to your riding style, knowing that this will affect battery life. 2) Proximity sensor: SKI TRACKS uses the proximity sensor. Why not BIKE TRACKS? 3) Position tags: It would be sweet if you could tag the beginning and end of sections you wanted specific data on - and if this could be done with voice-recognition that would be ground-breaking.

Great app, well worth it, almost perfect

I agree with the above reviews. It tracks very well, multiple rides on same trails are pretty closr to each other. Impressive because a lot of the trails are in canyons where service isnt that reliable. Occasionally the plot points are too far apart and s-turns at speed get straightened out. I also got a response from the lead developer and he is all about input and responds accordingly. I hope a furure release adds the ability to drop placemarks so you can split up a ride into your own data blocks. It tends to miss label descents and ascents but thats a small detail. Awesome app! Get it and get out on the trails!

It Rocks!

made this purchase based on prices and reviews and Im so glad I did, couldnt be happier!

The best yet

I cant believe theres isnt more feedback for this app. At least its positive. This app is by far the most accurate Ive used to date. Ive used MotionX-GPS and Cyclemeter they have great reviews, but those people much be smoking something or have nothing to compare the data to. The altitude on those apps are way off. By like 400 feet. The speed is right on, but not good enough for me. I have pretty nice equipment to compare the data to, but I only want to bring my iPhone with. This is the first app that can make that possible. Thank you. Now make it even cooler.

Best on bike app out there!

Ive tried a few bike apps and this one by far the best.

Meh

Pretty cool I guess but the speed and mapping arent totally accurate

Great app

After messing around a few apps, this by far is the best. Love the dark profile, makes it easier to see on the road and overall it runs great. It just lacks the calorie burn which I would love to have.

Intuitive

Amazing app for easily tracking your bike rides. You get a detailed map of your route plus tons of stats like ride length, average speed, vertical gained, max elevation, etc.

Moose

This is a great app very worth the price. I used it today for the 1st time on a ride and was totally happy with how it worked. Looking forward to using all the time....A+++++

Saves your battery, great app.

I came to this from ski tracks and love it. I agree not sure why not more reviews. I have used since it first came out last July. Four stars because no updates since then. Very accurate and great user interface. Used map my ride and it killed my battery in three hours, Bike Tracks lasts all day. Needs update to give moving average, sensor for ant devices for cadence and heart rate, leader board to keep track of your totals. Will give 5 stars if they add these features. If no update may switch to Strava.

Works for dirt bikes

I use this app for off road dirt bike riding (motorcycle). It works pretty darn good for it. Even though it is for bicycles. I have tried other trail trackers. Which drains the battery quick I ran this app for 5 hours and had 66% batt. Left when done. Marks out trails nicely. I love all the tech. Info. Best app for dirt bikes I have found.

Only 1 thing missing.

Love it. Only wish it would auto start/stop so it would give both moving time and elapsed time.

Does not save entire ride

This app is great if you are using it for a short ride (around an hour). But the data from longer rides gets clipped. Yesterday, I did a 2 hour 20 mile ride. It seemed to track ok, but as soon as I hit save, it clipped the data down to 1:45 and just 17 miles. Also, it failed to recognize a major climb and descent (more than 900 vertical). It recognized the first two, which were around 500 feet each, but missed the big one at the end. The map function is really cool and helps a lot for navigation. However, the problem with data clipping is really disappointing.
