CoffeeRiders — Safer Biking, Solo or with Friends, Every Ride You Take.
Every great ride starts at the coffee shop. CoffeeRiders is the group cycling app that brings riders together — from planning your route and picking a meeting point to tracking each
other live and celebrating at the finish line.
PLAN & RIDE TOGETHER
Create group rides with custom routes, meeting points, and waypoints. Invite your crew, set the date, and hit the road. Browse public rides nearby or keep it private with your inner
circle.
REAL-TIME TRACKING
Share your live location with your group so everyone stays connected on the road. See where your fellow riders are, who's ahead, and who might need a hand — all on a live map.
ROUTES & NAVIGATION
Build custom routes with turn-by-turn directions, or browse saved routes from your community. View elevation profiles, distance, and estimated ride time before you go. Discover points
of interest along the way — cafes, water stops, bike shops, and more.
GROUPS & COMMUNITY
Create or join groups to ride with the same crew regularly. Share photos, chat in real time, and keep a feed of your group's adventures. Send invite links or scan QR codes to grow your
community.
STAY CONNECTED
Message riders directly or in group chats. Share your location, media, and ride invites. Get push notifications for ride reminders, new messages, and when your crew is on the move.
DISCOVER STOPS
Find recommended coffee shops, restaurants, and rest stops along your route. Because the best rides always include a great cup of coffee.

1.8.0 May 27
Smarter back navigation
- Tapping the back button now works reliably when you open the app directly from a push
notification, QR scan, or deep link — you land on the right tab (Home or Notifications)
instead of getting stranded on a black screen.
- Android hardware back and iOS swipe-back gestures honour the same rules.
Reliable alerts badge
- The alerts counter is now driven by the server, so it stays in sync across your phone,
tablet, and other devices — no more drift between sessions.
- Opening the alerts sheet no longer auto-clears everything; alerts are marked read only
when you actually tap them, or when you use the new Mark all as read button at the top
of the sheet (now translated in English, Spanish, and German).
- The Home alerts badge shows all your rides; the active-ride dashboard badge shows just
that ride.
Faster, steadier ride details map
- Re-opening a past ride no longer waits to re-download the route and your trace — both
are now served from the local cache, so the map paints instantly.
- Fixed a jumpy reframe where the camera would briefly show the full route, then snap
onto a smaller trace bbox that cropped the route out of view. The map now stays framed
on the correct area from the first frame.
- Alert pins on the active-ride map stay visible at every zoom level and no longer
disappear behind rider icons when they overlap.
1.7.0 May 13
Active ride
- Layers sheet — a new tool button (layers icon) opens a sheet where you can show or hide the
planned route, ride POIs, riders, and your own GPS trace. Toggles take effect on the live map
immediately.
- Drop a pin anywhere — long-press on the map to drop a destination pin; confirm to generate a
route from your current position. No need to leave the dashboard.
- Manage your temporary routes — every route you create on the fly shows up in the new sheet,
with switches to hide or show each one and a long-press to delete (with confirmation).
- Temporary routes survive restarts — close and reopen the app and your in-progress routes are
still on the map.
- Cleaner search — search results now render as a full map POI with a readable label (matching
the basemap style) and the search bar sits cleanly above the action pill.
- Smarter GPS pill — hides itself when no other riders are active, so the HUD stays uncluttered.
- All destinations always visible — the map keeps every waypoint marker on screen at consistent
sizes; no more disappearing pins on long routes.
Home
- Restyled carousel cards — redesigned ride cards with a distance tab on the left, participant
avatar strip, and a coffee-cup banner that lines up with the route preview.
- User-location chip — quick glance at the city you're seen from; the Nearby and Today's sections
refresh together when it changes.
- "Find My Next Coffee" CTA — yellow callout title and the title-plus-button now share a single
card so the action stands out.
- Getting Started tiles — simplified layout with a warm yellow gradient.
- Ride detail consistency — home cards mirror the same icons, waypoint list, and meeting / end
markers you see on the ride detail screen.
Ride details
- Waypoint list with addresses — every waypoint now shows a geocoded street name; the start, end,
and middle stops all render correctly.
- Polished detail view — full-width info card, route-POI info on the start/end summary, and the
in-page map mirrors the full-map viewer's layers.
Routes
- Create route shortcut — a "+" FAB on the My Routes map view to start a new route without
backing out.

rides.
