Ratings and Reviews
Good Melbourne coverage
Seems to have good coverage of the bike path network across Melbourne, Australia - including the main yarra, bay and city trails plus on road cycle lanes.
Needs to improve a LOT!
Now that Strava has introduced route planning (only currently available online, not within their app), the competition has stepped up the game for everyone else, including Cycle Maps. I've got the paid version because it looked promising and I use routing a lot out on the road and for planning new rides but having tried to use it for a few weeks I've identified some really annoying problems:
1. Once you've built a route, sometimes the app doesn't give you the option to "Ride This" as it does if you load a route from saved routes. I guess that's a bug but the functionality hasn't been thought through as there should be much more control about starting, stopping and pausing routes (a la Strava).
2. The route planning could do with some work. Strava has the benefit of thousands of users so the amount of data Strava can dive into to help build a route along popular bike paths is far better. Cyclemaps does throw up some strange route options but at least tries to stick to established bike paths defined by google.
3. The screen layout, graphics and usability are very 1990's. Thin weedy fonts are used that are very hard to read, graphics and fonts overlap in tacky ways and amazingly, none of the usual iOS layouts/button functionality seems to have been implemented. You do have to press around the screen a bit to select an option as it's only text without any buttons. Perhaps the app is a port from a different OS?
Developer Response ,
Hi and thank you for the feedback. We constantly work on the UI and getting inspiration from Strava, especially with respect to starting pausing and ending routes is a good one. It’s worth pointing out that we don’t target sports cyclists (yet :-). As for not getting the ride this option, do you think you can contact us with an example at feedback@cyclema.ps? It’s the first time we hear of this and would love to fix it. Again, thanks for the feedback and we hope you enjoy your cycling
Fabulous routes
Sends us down roads and paths we wouldn’t have found otherwise. Great for avoiding car traffic and traffic lights. Occasionally the off road options are a bit crowded with pedestrian traffic but then it is easy to reroute. Love this app.
