Crash detection and other rides not tracked?
Quote from Pilot78 on 15.04.2025, 11:48Hello, I absolutely love this app and even have a premium subscription but there’s a couple features I wish it had that I’ve seen on other lesser apps. One is a feature to let certain loved ones know you’re going on a ride and if the route is laid out using the plan feature they get a screenshot of your map via text and if the app detects you get into an accident it will notify them of the accident and send them a pin of your location on where it happened.
The other feature is sometimes I jump on my bike and head from point a to b but forgot to open the app to track my ride and it would be nice to be able to manually input that ride in later to keep track of my miles and time in the seat of that bike and maybe possibly enter the route manually.
Thank you for this wonderful app and keep up the great work. Hopefully these are features that can be implemented in a future update.

I understand the request.
Share route and location with loved ones: This has been on the feature request list for quite some time, but so far other higher priorities keep popping up. Part of why the priority is lower is because your iPhone already has similar feature built in: https://www.apple.com/icloud/find-my/ I know it's not exactly the same as it only shares your location, not your route.
Crash detection: This is quite a difficult feature to get right. Also, Apple has a built-in solution for that: https://support.apple.com/en-us/104959, I realize this doesn't work in all regions yet, but that's just a matter of time, and I'm sure that Apple would implement this better than any other 3rd party app would be able to (as Apple has lower level access to all the sensors in your phone).
Manually adding a recorded ride: Yes.. this has been on the list for a while too. At this moment I can't give you a date for that. The list is long, and we need to prioritize.
Best regards,
Guido
