more Seems like it'd work well. However, the camera is locked to stop panning outside the United States. This wouldn't normally be an issue, as I'm American, but I live in Miami and the camera stops panning south at around St. Lucie County. Very strange issue to have but I'm sure the app would work wonderfully if it covered my area
Developer Response We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, especially such a specific geo-fencing issue!We understand your frustration.

Smoother rerouting and more accurate turn-by-turn timing
4.12.3 1d ago
- Live Activity widget: See your next turn, ETA, and speed on your lock screen and Dynamic Island while navigating
- Fixed: Remaining distance now counts down in real time as you ride
4.12.2 2d ago
Smoother route display
The ETA and distance banner on your planned route no longer flickers when calculating a trip on your scooter or moped.
More accurate arrival time
Real-time ETA now counts down steadily as you ride, giving you a reliable estimated arrival whether you're on an electric scooter, e-moped, or city roller.
Smarter rerouting
Reduced unnecessary reroutes during low-speed urban navigation, so your ride stays on track without interruptions.
4.12.1 4d ago
Problem: After stopping navigation and dropping a new pin, the map no longer followed the user and the route start point was incorrect.
Root Causes Fixed:
1. Map Tracking Mode: The cachedRoute wasn't being cleared in stopNavigation(), so the map stayed in overview mode instead of returning to user-following mode.
2. Location Updates: Location tracking was stopped but never restarted after navigation ended, leaving no current position for new routes.
3. Start Point Logic: The route start point fallback logic wasn't robust enough after navigation state was cleared.
4.12.0 12/03/2025
• Smarter re-routing: Faster recovery if you miss a turn.
• Clearer turn views: Improved arrow timing and legibility at complex junctions.
• Battery-Saving refinements: Lower power draw on long sessions.
• Routing options polish: Better handling for cyclist-road beta and surface hints.
• Reliability & fixes: Performance improvements and bug fixes across the app.
4.11.3 11/16/2025
This update brings powerful new features to enhance your journey, designed to give you more information at a glance and extend your adventures.
Discover Your Path with Advanced Beta Features
We're pushing the boundaries of navigation. You can now explore more routing options with our expanded Beta features. For the first time, this includes dedicated bicycle roads, allowing you to plan the perfect two-wheeled adventure with routes optimized for cyclists.
Go Farther with Battery Saving Mode
Now you can navigate for longer on a single charge. Our new Battery Saving Mode is intelligently designed to reduce power consumption while still providing essential navigation, so you can focus on your journey without worrying about your battery life.
See Your Route, Instantly
Planning has never been easier. With the new Route Label Overlay, you can instantly see the estimated time and distance for your planned route directly on the map. This gives you a clear and immediate understanding of your journey ahead, making your travel planning seamless and intuitive.
We are always working to improve your experience. Thank you for your feedback, and we can't wait for you to try what's new.
4.11.2 10/14/2025
This update is all about giving you ultimate confidence on the road. We've supercharged our route planner with hyper-accurate battery range estimates and a more reliable ETA, so you know exactly how far you can go and when you'll get there.
UNLEASH YOUR TRUE BATTERY RANGE (Beta)
Say goodbye to range anxiety! Our new advanced "Battery Range Estimate" feature lets you input your scooter or moped's exact battery specs for a range prediction you can finally trust.
- Custom Profiles: Input your battery's Voltage (V), Amp-hours (Ah), and average consumption (Wh/km).
- Pinpoint Accuracy: Get a dynamic range overlay on the map that truly reflects your vehicle's capability.
- Universal Support: Perfect for any electric scooter or moped, from a Xiaomi or Segway to a Niu or Unu. Finally, a range estimate tailored to YOUR ride!
A SMARTER, MORE RELIABLE ETA
Your time is valuable. We've completely overhauled our algorithm to provide a more precise and dependable Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA). Our GPS navigation now better accounts for scooter-specific travel, so you can plan your journey with confidence and always be on time.
AND AS ALWAYS, A TUNE-UP
- Performance Boost: We've made optimizations under the hood for faster map loading and a smoother routing experience.

3.51 07/12/2025
What's New in This Update
We're excited to bring you a smoother and more reliable navigation experience with UrbanRider! This update fine-tunes how we handle speed limits and makes your ride even more intuitive, especially when cruising through different countries. Here's what's improved:
Accurate Speed Limits for Your Location: Speed limits now automatically adjust to match the country you're riding in. In the US, you'll see limits in mph (like 15 mph for residential areas), and in other countries, they'll show in km/h (like 30 km/h). No more confusing switches between units!
Enhanced Overspeed Alerts: If you go over the speed limit (e.g., hitting 20 mph in a 15 mph zone), the speed display in the Driving Panel will turn red, get bigger, and blink to catch your attention. You'll also hear a voice warning to help you stay safe.
Consistent Speed Display: We've fixed issues where speed limits flipped between mph and km/h unexpectedly. Now, the speed limit sign and your current speed always show in the correct unit for your location.
Improved Navigation Reliability: Behind-the-scenes tweaks ensure speed limits from our routing system (like 24 km/h for residential roads) are applied correctly, with no unexpected changes (e.g., from 24 to 25 km/h).
Smoother Performance: Optimized how we detect your location to avoid overloading the system, making navigation more responsive, even on busy rides.
Thank You for Riding with UrbanRider!
We’ve squashed bugs and polished the app to keep your rides safe and fun. Whether you’re zipping through city streets or exploring new roads, we’ve got you covered. Grab your helmet, update now, and enjoy the journey!

Introduces three routing profiles:
City Roads – avoids highways, respects your speed limits.
Main Roads – same as above, but a bit faster to generate.
Any Road – fast as lightning but includes all roads (except highways), so use with care.
By default, we’ll stick with the safest option, which is the slowest to calculate, but it carefully validates speed limits and road types to keep your ride legal and smooth.
3.41 06/26/2025
UI updates and a substantial restructuring of the underlying code.
What does this mean for you?
Smoother Experience: The UI changes aim to make the app even more intuitive, user-friendly, and visually appealing. We want your navigation experience to be as seamless as your ride.
Future-Proofing: The code restructuring is a crucial step to make UrbanRider more robust, easier to maintain, and significantly faster to develop new features down the line. Think of it as building a stronger, more efficient engine for the app!
We're excited about the foundation we're laying and what it will enable us to deliver in future updates. Thanks for your continued support, and happy riding!
3.40 06/24/2025

- Optimized for Performance: By reducing network calls and streamlining how we process location updates, the app is now faster and more efficient, putting less strain on your battery and main thread.
- Map Stability: Enhanced validation checks prevent the map from updating with stale information, keeping you perfectly in sync.
We've worked hard to eliminate bugs and improve instruction timing for a seamless and reliable navigation experience.
3.32 06/12/2025
