Great when it works!
This app is brilliant for tracking your ride, finding new routes and calculating your speeds and ride angles. Unfortunately it seems very unreliable. It often crashes when you try to look at your past rides, or doesn’t save the ride, and once it crashes, you have delete it and reinstall it for it to work again. I have tried all the normal bug fixes, but they don’t work. If the bugs were worked out, it would be amazing.
Overall, it’s a brilliant app but very frustrating.

Yamaha map my ride
I was looking forward to using this app as the read up on it sounds perfect for me 👍🏻
Unfortunately the first time I went to use it when setting off on a ride all I got was a blank screen 🤦♂️ when o stopped halfway through my ride o tried again hey presto it let me start my ride 👌🏻
Then when I got home I selected finish and save which it then displayed a map and the information I was requiring 👍🏻 great I thought get the bike put away and my gear off then sit down with a cuppa and review the information and from there on in what a nightmare no info found then loading but ended with loading error and I’m still unable to view that ride which is so disappointing as I’ve wasted about an hour of my day trying to load this up.
Save yourself the bother and just don’t download this app as you will end up as dispirited as myself.
What an absolute let down
Needless to say as soon as I press send on this review I will delete this app.

won’t connect to my new Yamaha
couldn’t try it as it won’t connect. It does not show pairing mode. i have 2023 Tracer7
Come on Yamaha!!
Over a year now and this app is absolutely useless.
I love my Yamahas, and putting aside the abysmally, ridiculously basic connectivity features of the like of the Tenere world raid, nevertheless this app is absolutely crap. So much so i only use it maybe once every few months.
1- need to sign in EVERY TIME you start the app.
2- Ride recording is hot and miss, sometimes it does others it doesn’t.
3- am not sure what’s going on with the MPG and fuel stats with this app, but am sure my bike isn’t always averaging over 100 mpg.
4- this is no different than any other generic tracking app, only the other established apps are way better.
Please pull your finger out and sort it!! Other bike manufacturers including Chinese ones are way ahead of you!

Still not good enough
Signed in before my ride, started it up and put my phone away. Opened my phone after the ride to see I’ve once again been logged out and my ride not tracked. Please fix this issue, I’m lucky to record 1 in 5 rides.
Smooth bikes, clunky app!
This app could be a nice little tool to use along side your rides. However I find it a little bit clunky to use, you have to manually tell the app when you start riding and finish riding, the auto start ride doesn’t seem to do anything! I’ve reset my oil maintenance twice and I’m still getting notifications that the oil needs changing even though it’s just been done! I hope they manage to make the app more streamlined so that it seamlessly integrates with my bike! 🙏

Great app but has some issues
Amazing app but has some issues. When i close the app and lock my iphone it just resets itself so it doesn’t record my rides.
The app itself is a great idea but needs tweeks so that doesn’t happen
Update 16th september 2023 can't log in to my account via Facebook which is how I normally log on and now I can't see my rides or anything as I can't log in at all. Sort it out please yamaha!!

Won’t load my previous rides
App stopped working correctly. Have sent multiple messages to Yamaha regarding the issue and never get a response. I tracked some awesome rides and I want them back.
Good for about 10 rides then turned to trash
This was a great app at first. Then it started logging me out if my rides went longer than 10-15 minutes. It would make me log back in and say “you have an active ride” but I had no way to recover the ride. Really disappointing. I was using this to monitor my growth in the lean angle, distance per ride, and top speed. I’m a brand new rider and it was really handy. Guess I’ll have to find something else.

Love it, but….
I’ve use apps from KTM, BMW and Yamaha. I actually like this one best for its simplicity. To use it, it often makes me “log in.” Sometimes I can just hit “start my ride.” The problem comes when I start a ride this way and get to my destination and I’ve been logged out. When I login again, I can’t find my ride in progress anywhere. If I try to start a new ride, it says “ride already in progress.” Since I can’t find the existing ride, the only way out is to shut down and reboot the app. Super frustrating because you then lose all info for that ride.
