Aventon 4+

I love my Adventure.2 but…

There are some things that should be updated with a patch. The black screen on the controller is terrible for riding in the sun with sunglasses. It makes it impossible to see most of the information. I haven’t gotten a phone mount yet, but I shouldn’t have to. Why can’t I select the color I want my screen to be? Black at night would be perfect, white during the day perfect. Maybe they switch as I turn my head light on.. cmon guys, for the price of these bikes we can sort these things out. There’s not much to the app. The “reward” system is lacking. It works with the settings on properly though.

Bike is AMAZING. App falls flat

TLDR; 2 stars because the app is hyped in advertising and it doesn’t perform well. It feels like it is still in beta. Love my Aventon bike. Not a fan of the app.

I can’t say enough great things about my Aventon Pace 500. The bike is AMAZING. I love riding it. This review is specifically for the app. Two stars because it is functional and most of the major parts of the app work (just not well). First, it pairs easily with my bike’s display. On a couple of occasions it has logged out and I have to login in and connect the app to the bike. No biggie, except I don’t realize it until I’m pedaling away. That’s on me, I should check it before mounting my bike. The gps function tracking my rides works mostly well. It tracks and keeps stats (mph, odometer, avg speed, etc) accurately. My gripe is that it stays zoomed out to show my entire route I’ve ridden during my current session. If I try zooming in or hitting the “center on me” button, it immediately zooms back out to show the entire ride again. Not a huge problem unless you don’t know the area well. Zoomed out, it is difficult for my 50 y/o eyes to see all the streets. The app has some gamification built in to compare your distance against other Aventon owners. It ranks by day, week, month, and all time. This feature doesn’t stay current. For me, not a big deal. I mention it because it’s on the app and doesn’t track accurately. Finally, the overall build of the app is a tad clunky and glitchy.

Unstable for tracking rides and just generally buggy

The app looks good and connects to the bike consistently, but the tracking of rides feature has crash 3 times in the past week. I also noticed that the leaderboard is somehow not in sync with the current days rides. Occasionally when I am in the app in settings, additional features appear, like setting the pow for each pedal assist level. I tried to modify the setting but they wouldn’t save. No consistency as to when these features appear or not. Overall the app is a big disappointment, given the hype it gets when you purchase the bike. The bike (soltera) is great but the app is not ready for public use. I see from other responses from the developers that their team is small, but that means nothing to me when I spent $1300 for a bike AND an app. Way too must hype around this app on the website for it to be of such poor quality. Please fix it.

I can provided details and specific examples to your development team if that helps
