Just go riding
Choose your bike and start a free ride, or add a route and workout first. Recording, navigation, and joining a group stay separate actions.
Features / Record & connect
Ride recording.
Record rides on your Android, customise the data you see, and keep your ride files.
Local ride recording, history, and file exports are free. Account-connected services and advanced analysis have their own access and allowance rules.
The essentials.
Find it in the appRide display → Recording fields · Ride → expanded metrics · Activity → saved ride
Put your data in view
Choose main recording fields and expand the ride panel for extra metrics. Add and reorder the readings that matter: speed, distance, elevation, heart rate, cadence, and estimated or measured power when available.
Come back to the whole ride
Activity brings your saved rides, overview, and personal segments together. Open a ride for charts, laps, replay, and the details you recorded.
Take your files with you
Export FIT, GPX or TCX for compatible tools. An optional Intervals.icu connection uses your own account; export contents depend on the format and the recorded data.
More details & considerations
A home for the whole ride
Home brings the active bike, route and optional workout together before you start. A free ride records where you go without a planned destination. Choosing a route and starting a recording are separate actions.
Put your useful fields first
Choose your main fields in Recording fields, then expand the ride panel to see extra metrics. Customize lets you add, remove and reorder those extra readings. Available data depends on your phone, sensors and GPS; a missing value is not a measured zero.
Recording beyond the screen
The recording can continue with the screen off. Location permissions and Android background operation still matter, so check the ride status before putting the phone away. Maps and weather have their own connectivity requirements.

Questions, answered
About ride recording.
Do I need mobile data to record?
No. Recording uses location and available sensors. Prepare offline coverage separately if you also want maps, route calculation and place search without a connection.
Are all export formats identical?
No. FIT, GPX and TCX carry different types of information, and the exported data depends on what was recorded. Choose the format your destination service supports.
