Terms of Service

1. About Ride Compute

Ride Compute is a cycling app for Android. Its features include phone-based power approximations, route planning and navigation, ride recording, activity-file exports and structured workouts.

The website explains these capabilities and shows example app screens. Example readings, routes and workouts are illustrations, not live information or recommendations tailored to you.

2. Safe use comes first

Set up the phone, route and workout before riding. Use a secure mount and stop somewhere safe before making changes that need your attention.

Follow local road rules, signs and access restrictions. Do not follow an instruction when doing so would be unsafe. The app is not an emergency service, and location-sharing or messaging features should not be relied on to obtain emergency assistance.

Workouts and ride metrics are not medical advice. Choose activities that are suitable for your health, experience and current conditions. A target on the screen should never override a need to slow down, stop or seek help.

3. Understand the approximations

Phone-based power is an approximation. It is calculated from movement, sensor inputs, bike settings and other available information. It is not equivalent to a direct power-meter measurement, and no validated accuracy percentage is stated.

Position, elevation, weather, ride time, energy use and route information can be incomplete or inaccurate. Wind, drafting, sensor quality, reception, phone placement, motor assistance and changing road conditions can affect the results.

Map data and routing information do not guarantee that a road or path is safe, legal, open or suitable for your bike. Check your route and make decisions based on the conditions around you.

4. Your rides and files

Saved rides and settings are kept on the device. Keep copies of information that matters to you. Device loss, storage problems, app removal or other changes can affect access to locally stored data.

Exporting or sharing a ride creates a separate copy. Deleting a ride in the app does not delete copies held by recipients or external services. Check location information before sharing a file.

Backups can contain sensitive settings and saved third-party API credentials in readable form. Store them securely and do not share them publicly.

5. Connected services and permissions

Some features use third-party services for maps, weather, search or routing. Optional integrations and user-directed sharing can send data to other services. Their availability, data handling and applicable terms are separate from the app.

Only connect accounts, use credentials and share content that you are authorised to use. You can manage app permissions through Android settings; declining a permission may prevent a related feature from working.

Ride Compute Pro subscriptions are purchased through Google Play in supported releases. The purchase screen shows the features, local price, billing period and any trial you are eligible for before you confirm. A subscription renews automatically unless cancelled through Google Play. A trial converts to the displayed paid plan unless you cancel before it ends. Trial eligibility and availability are shown by Google Play.

Manage or cancel your subscription in Google Play. Uninstalling the app or deleting data does not cancel it. Cancellation normally stops the next renewal while access continues for the paid period. Refunds follow Google Play’s applicable policies and your statutory rights; contact support if you need help locating an order. Restore purchases using the RideCompute account linked to the purchase and the Google Play account that made it. Pro access belongs to that verified RideCompute account; changing accounts does not transfer a purchase.

Accounts and Community

Creating an online account is optional for local riding. Community features require a signed-in account and agreement to the Community rules. Privacy choices control discovery, profile visibility and public leaderboard participation separately. Friend requests require acceptance; joining a Group or live ride does not begin recording or location sharing.

Plan allowances are shown before a limited online action. Download allowances count the first authorised delivery of a package version; deleting it does not refund that allowance. Own-analysis samples are charged only when a nonempty report is finalised, and saved reports remain available offline. Limits can change for future actions; your recorded rides and saved reports remain yours.

Public boards show only opted-in information. Eligible ride totals may be checked for duplication or implausible activity. Scores can be corrected, and reported content or accounts can be restricted. You can block riders, report content, withdraw publication consent or request account deletion from the app. Account deletion does not cancel a Google Play subscription.

6. Availability and changes

Features depend on the installed app version, device capabilities, sensor compatibility and available data. Offline maps and planning require advance downloads. Internet-dependent services may be unavailable even when ride recording continues to work.

This website does not provide a confirmed public download or store listing. Descriptions of the app should not be read as a promise that every feature is available on every device or in every release.

7. Support and your rights

Email [email protected] for app support, subscription questions or concerns. The Privacy Policy explains how to request deletion of your online identity and data. Do not send passwords or payment-card details.

Nothing in these terms removes rights or remedies that cannot be excluded under applicable consumer law. Material changes will be reflected in the effective date. Any new purchase or renewal terms are presented through Google Play as required by its rules.
