REVER-GPS motocicleta/paseos 4+

As a new rider my significant other is of course concerned. I tried all the Motorcycle routing and tracking apps, and none of them had this one killer feature that I’m not sure stands out enough. Safety SMS. Yep, you configure your safety contact and start a ride in the app, they get a text message with a link to your live location. You finish a ride in the app, they get a text message that you arrived at your destination. That feature is amazing. There are other apps out there that you can share your location with, but none I found that auto-trigger an SMS message with a link at the start of a ride, and another SMS message when you are finished. That right there will keep me on Rever.

There’s some things I think they could do to make the app even better though. Speed overlay on the map is one. Right now you have to drop down a panel to see your speed. Would be great to see it as an overlay on the map itself (think Waze). Different color schemes other than that Orange and Black (minor but pretty is everything these days). Lean angles would be cool. Also, a curvy / ultra-curvy route planner (hint, there’s a competitor with it) would be sweet as well. None of the above pushes me away from the product, and it shouldn’t cause you to look elsewhere either. Roadmap of the product though could grow a great app into an amazing one.

Thank you for your great review and kind feedback! We are pleased to hear that you are enjoying the Safety SMS feature. We are working on some of the features you mentioned! For curvy, we have Butler Maps which are roads based on scenery and twisty which is way more valuable when planning a ride. If you have any questions, please reach out to us at support@rever.co

When it comes to be able to jump on a bike look up shared rides that you want to tackle OR make your own route the Rever is one of the best apps out there. I have been riding off and on road for over 50 years and once I tried the free Rever app I was hooked. I recorded quite a few of my rides in order to get back to the cool things I had found on the rides later. Then I signed up to try the Pro version of Rever and absolutely enjoy being able to make road and back country rides to share. You can make tracks, add waypoints, POIs, and the always great turn by turn line to follow.

*The notification to family/friends that you are taking off on a ride, they can track you in real time for safety and let’s them know when you are home or your destination. I ride solo a lot and having someone know where and when my ride has taken me. They can see where I am in real time and share that with EMS/Rescue or need for a tow truck for repairs. For the money it is very had to beat thing function. There are other apps that do nearly the same but I really like the simplicity of Rever. The Pro version is really a super upgrade in all areas at a very affordable price. Thanks Rever!

Hi there! Thank you so much for the 5 star review and for being such a loyal user. We really appreciate your input! Encourage your friends and groups to join the app. If you have any questions or suggestions we're happy to hear them at support@rever.co. Safe riding!

I’ve been using this app for a couple of years now and one thing that really frustrates me is the app freezing. I’ve had a few rides where I have paused for lunch or just a stop and when I select resume, the app has frozen and has to be closed. Once closed, that part of the ride saves, but I have to restart. Naturally, that means the ride is broken up and not continuous. I know I saw somewhere that a resume/continue from previous ride was under consideration for this app. Oh, and one other person in my ride yesterday using this app had hers freeze up also. Yes, my iPhone is up to date. Yes, my REVER app is up to date.

Update: I figured out the freezing problem. The menu at the bottom had slid up and covered the Resume button. I tried several times to slide the menu up, but nothing happened. I thought the App Froze thereby locking the App. The menu needed to slide down to expose the Resume button. Perhaps the Menu should not cove the Resume button while the app in is use.

Thanks for your feedback. This should be resolved with the latest version (6.0.0) released on April 20th, 2022. If you are still having issues please reach out to us at support@rever.co.
