FITIV Ride GPS Cycling Tracker Reviews

Like any investment, you want things to get better over time. I have had FITIV for about a year and a half now and I only use it for cycling. Since day 1, the FITIV team has continued to update and enhance the user interface and experience in big ways. Particularly their updates with the Apple Watch were crucial for my rides. They listen to user feedback and take action quickly when there’s an issue. You can’t expect perfection with any app but FITIV has definitely been making some good moves with their updates and enhancements to FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker . I haven’t experienced a single issue when using FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker since I’ve had it. What FITIV needs to do next is compete with STRAVAs GPS features like tracking PRs and stretch times for different areas of people’s exercise routes. STRAVA can be overwhelming and data packed for an amateur but I think FITIV can keep it crisp and simple and add those fun competitive social interactions as they grow and get better. 👍🏼🤙🏼

This suite of apps has a lot of features, unfortunately some of the key features are unreliable and support is non-existent. I have been trying to use the FITIV Ride app with my iPhone and Apple Watch. I want to stream the heart rate info from the watch to the phone. It works except that it I receive a “Waiting for data” message on the phone over half the time. When I ride, my watch is 10 inches from my phone. I submitted a support ticket, no response. I went ahead and subscribed for a month in hopes there would be a solution. FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker doesn’t recognize my subscription, and the restore purchases link generates an error every time. If I don’t hear back soon, I will be contacting Apple for a refund on my non-working subscription.

I paid for a years subscription. I have had nothing but problems. I use this on my iPhone as well as my Apple Watch. When I finish riding most times the workout will not save. It closes FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker back to the watch face. Only way to try to record another workout is to delete the old one that refuses to save. Second issue while riding FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker closes well into my workout with no notification or anything. So another workout lost. I have uninstalled reinstalled restarted you name it and I continually have issues. I sent messages for tech support and never heard back from them. I’m going back to the Under Armour app. At least it saves all of my workout data. My advice don’t waste your time or money in this one

The entire app is completely disabled unless you subscribe to a payment plan. You can’t even record ONE ride just to see if you like FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker !

It first bugs you with the usual give me access to this and that during the setup (which I did). But then no matter what you try to do it goes to the “pick a subscription plan” page with a 20 second timer. So what good is it if I can’t even tell if it works, or has the features I’m looking for?

All it lets you do is stare at the main screen. If you tap on anything it just says here join this and join that. But it doesn’t actually let you see what is beyond that. So this “trial” was completely useless.

I use FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker with the Scoshe Armband pulse monitor. Many features in FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker. Can manually set 5 training zones or let app do it. Complete reports of every workout. Shows percent and actual time in each training zone. Map showing travel. Graphs showing elevation profile, pulse rate, speed. I use for cycling. Has helped me prevent overdoing it on hill climbs.

I have enjoyed using all the apps from FITIV, especially FITIV Ride since I’m now riding a lot more than anything else. It’s a great app for the value, $29 a year is the cheapest subscription you can find out there. It also syncs with my favorite Riding app Strava!

Really impressed with all the features and possible integrations available! Looking forward to all upcoming possibilities within apps. I found my one fitness app finally after many reviewing all options available.

It's great to see how many of the old bugs have been fixed. But I've noticed a few bugs that are unique to FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker in comparison to others (Ex. Strava).

I can have a great signal but FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker pauses itself and doesn't track for a good 3 miles, I check to see if other apps can track me and they work fine.

On very long rides FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker starts to lag. For example I stop moving but FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker is lagging behind by 15 seconds recording my previous movements. This makes the speedometer useless. Note: this started happening at 70+ miles

Once completing a very long ride, FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker freezes up probably because it's trying to compute about 80+ miles of data.

I have downloaded a bunch of workout apps and this is the best I’ve seen. They charge a few bucks a month but it is worth it for the comprehensive information and great heart rate tracking and calculated workout zones!

This is one of the few apps that combines the two areas together. Customizable screen allows you to focus on your targeted goal areas during the workout.

This is a great all around app for active people. It tracks my heart rate during my cycling, with awesome stats and graphs. Works well with I watch app. It also presents stats on daily, weekly monthly and yearly, so you get a great sense of how you are progressing throughout the period

Works great for a 65 year old guy to track workout efforts. Does everything I could ask for. Wish this existed in the 80’s when I was doing triathlon’s and marathon’s.

For a cycling specific app, it’s odd to me that the display doesn’t show speed or power. Seems an oversight.

Aside from that, it loses connection to the Apple Watch and spins while trying to connect.

No benefit over FitIV’s generic app.

I use it on my apple watch and it is slow to start and hangs up frequently between when I select my exercise and the Start function. It has also on occasion gone into a pause mode without warning. If you are looking for a reliable exercise, this is not it!

The pausing is working worse and worse over time. I assume there are IOS subtleties the developers are not keeping up with. Almost impossible for my wife or I to get accurate data anymore now the auto pause doesn’t work effectively and the data changes when you save it at the end of a ride.

Update: Working well now, bugs gone, rating changed back to 5 stars.

I used FITIV Pulse for running/walking and hiking and is an awesome product. I decide to try FITIV Ride and is awesome to track progress, HR, Altitude, climbs, etc. I recommended FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker.

I love FITIV. The colors used for the screen are amazing! Helps me through my workouts with the feedback I receive

Best app for tracking a variety of workouts. Lots of great information tailored to specific needs and desires.

FITIVRideGPSCyclingTracker takes several of my health apps and puts them in one nicely visual dashboard.
