Free use for one week only then automatic fee charged. Not good.
This app helps me find my way no matter the motivation 🚴🏼🚴🏼
PLEASE allow trip editing on a portable device, like a phone or a tablet. I don’t own any windows anything and nothing else seems to work. Otherwise, RWGPS is AWESOME and a constant companion!
Many APPs begin their lives as equal parts Excitement and Experimentation.
Ride with GPS have evolved a brilliant platform for normal humans who may be tired of hearing “if it didn’t happen on Strava…” which is rather stupid.
Anyway, if you enjoy accurate mapping, brilliant simplicity, and Cogent yet complete lack of Competitive Fake-Book style one-up-man-ship… Then RWGPS is your APP.
If you prefer to follow another faker, on your way to false results and Motorized superlatives, then this is NOT your APP.
Enjoying this for many years.

RWGPS is a great app, full of features with a nice route planner. Any organized ride these days posts routes in RWGPS format, so it’s necessary for downloading those. It’s great to have it navigate the route—I just tuck my phone in my jersey pocket and listen for directions. Connection with Apple Watch is good, too.
I have the paid version. I find it great for planning organized bicycle tours, my own bike rides and my ADV motorcycle trips. The app works well for communicating with my Garmin XT2.
I was frustrated that the app constantly tracked my ride even when I didn’t want it to. This drained my phone’s battery unnecessarily. I wanted to use it on a week long camping bike ride, but I have to be careful about preserving my phone’s battery as I never know when I can next charge it. I had to delete the app to be sure it wasn’t constantly running in the background. Otherwise, it seems to have great features, but this issue was a hard pass for me.
This is useful for measuring progress with different conveyances (walking, biking, engine or non engine assisted movement progress and movement patterns). Then one can evaluate how effectively this is done. Nicely done.
All other apps don’t have a good route planner feature but, Ride with GPS’s planner is easy to do and fun.
Going on nine years. It’s part of my daily and I like looking at all the red squiggly lines in all the wonderful places I’ve been over the years now. 91k miles and when I sort by elevation all the great rides come to highlight.
Great program, smooth interface, loads of help in planning, and it never looks cheap.
Never change. Take my money.

The navigation is a little wonky when using a saved route. More to learn I guess.
A Fantastic, easy to use cycling application I highly recommend it!
There is no possibility for a good review if I can’t use navigation for free. I won’t spend money till I know the most important feature is worthy. Your bad
The more I use this app, the more I appreciate it.
And it’s the best bike route planner I’ve ever used by a long shot.

I would like the option of reverse riding on a route that someone shared with me.
