### 1/5 — Really bad app you have to use

*2025-11-26, version 3.8.11*

You have to have this App to join Rapha Club rides but since 2023(?) and various developers left ie Tom H development has stopped and its gone backwards.
Its so glitchy.
Chat is slow and unresponsive.
Those listed as ‘Following’ is a random number and not related to those that you follow.
There is no support, or rather there is a support to contact except they do nothing but send an email to say they will look into it and get back to you - which they dont.
Its a shame because when Tom was involved he was responsive to issues and actually fixed them and also had innovative ideas like the digital treasure hunt which was v sophisticated and added value to the RCC membership.
Its a clear sign the app doesnt function properly when rideleaders communicate by whatsapp instead of the app chat function and also that Rapha staff dont use or check the App.

### 3/5 — A good app that performs terribly

*2023-07-23, version 3.6.1*

PLEASE fix this app. It is the buggiest app on my phone. Chats don’t load without quitting and reopening the app. Cancelling a profile pic/backdrop change crashes the app, needing to be quit and reopened again. Calendar pages don’t always refresh (but are closer to working than the previous two issues). 
Also, whenever I follow a link to the store from the app I am taken to the GB site despite me being in the US. 
Please fix! It’s the core of the RCC membership and therefore one of the most expensive apps on my phone.

### 2/5 — Pointless push notifications

*2021-07-09, version 3.2.1*

So many pointless push notifications that give you no context as to what the notification is for. It’s not 2015, this needs to be better.

### 2/5 — Half baked

*2018-04-08, version 2.0.5*

Needs massive improvements. Not linked to the website. This app should be your one stop shop for all Rapha and RCC. 

Book on to a yoga class? Should appear in the app. 
Should be able to see past orders etc all in this app!

### 1/5 — Login Failed

*2018-04-04, version 2.0.4*

App looks great, but, every time I try to login it says it’s failed. I’ve been a member of Rapha for a long time, I’ve tried resetting my password etc but still no joy.

### 3/5 — Update: Login fixed, clean interface

*2018-03-10, version 2.0.1*

Been looking forward to this update for a long time.

Quick and helpful response from developer who got the login issued fixed pretty quickly.

The notifications are better than before, and the events/activity listings are easier to navigate.  The interface is a lot cleaner.

Looking forward to the new features discussed on the Rapha club site being rolled out in the near future.

### 2/5 — Meeting other members

*2018-03-02, version 2.0.0*

If you’re a new member and there are no rides in your area... how do you meet other members in your area to ride with? This is the apps most important use-case and it does nothing to address it. 

I think the best way to address it would be to provide a list of local riders in your area to introduce yourself to in the chat tab. Currently the chat tab is completely blank.

### 3/5 — Clean interface, but...

*2017-09-06, version 1.3.4*

Some usability issues. Can't add anyone to follow, error displaying a new ride (have to swipe quit the app once or twice before it displays properly), but I love the super clean look.

### 3/5 — Great when it opens but crashes all the time

*2016-04-06, version 1.0*

See title. Please do fix. Nice try though, looks good!

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Very buggy

*2026-08-28, version 5.0.6*

Old app was bad, this one is somehow worse

### 1/5 — Clunky functionality, misleading membership

*2026-08-05, version 5.0.5*

Garbage app and garbage member insurance coverage from a garbage ceo

### 1/5 — Very buggy!

*2026-07-29, version 5.0.3*

Needs work!

### 1/5 — Updated & Still Awful

*2026-07-10, version 5.0.2*

So glitchy. Keeps logging me out and won’t allow me to log back in. Half the chats don’t actually show anything either.

### 1/5 — Lots of bugs

*2026-07-06, version 5.0.1*

After deleting a chat (including future rides), can’t access the chat room again. Attempted to quit the ride and rejoin, but the system did not even let me quit the ride.

### 1/5 — Worst update ever👎

*2026-07-03, version 5.0.1*

After re-design, app feels and looks awful.
Performance degraded drastically, the app is less responsive, laggy, has much less features and looks very bad.
Dark mode is gone, frames are dropping when I’m scrolling and the app looks like an Android app on an iOS device👎
Such a bad decision to re-design a good looking iOS app😖

### 1/5 — Poor update.

*2026-06-29, version 5.0.0*

New update is buggy and loads very slowly. Cant even access the calendar anymore. Why was it changed when everthing was working perfectly before.

### 1/5 — Clunky functionality

*2026-06-03*

Garbage app from a garbage ceo

### 1/5 — Profile pictures not appearing

*2026-01-22, version 3.8.11*

Issues with the profile pictures not loading, I’ve done everything: phone iOS updated, RCC app updated, logged out and logged in. Nothing works, contacted support several weeks ago, they haven’t fixed the issue…

### 1/5 — iOS issues

*2026-01-11, version 3.8.11*

This app use to work but for the last few months it has multiple issues. Profile pictures not appearing, profile related updates not being sent through. Also for events and rides it is hard to tell who has registered.

### 5/5 — RCC

*2026-07-31, version 5.0.3*

Well made app recently updated

### 5/5 — Great value

*2022-04-09, version 3.3.3*

Just renewed my membership and in great part for the value that you get from the App! Well worth the membership price!

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2020-06-25, version 2.7*

This app and the introduction it has given me to virtual group rides has been a godsend during lockdown - thank you to the product managers and developers who built it 🙌 It’d be great to have more promotion of self-starter community rides. You can set up rides and groups but promoting that to others nearby would be great. But overall it’s very deserving of its place on my homescreen 👍

### 5/5 — Amazing connection to riders worldwide

*2018-03-05, version 2.0.0*

Best tool to connect with riders around the world, so many people on it already. So happy I joined

### 5/5 — Apple Health Integration

*2017-06-04, version 1.3.2*

Would be great if there the Rapha Cycling tracker was integrated with Apple Health.

### 5/5 — <3 Rapha

*2016-04-08, version 1.0*

FYI, you have to be a club member to use the app. I can't use the app but I'm sure it's good.

### 4/5 — “Add to my calendar” is not working

*2023-03-28, version 3.4.2*

- “Add to my calendar” is not working
- Better photo sharing quality would be great 
- The rest of the function are working very well

### 4/5 — Lots to like but can’t upload a profile picture 🤷‍♂️

*2019-05-10, version 2.1.5*

Can’t seem to upload any images to my profile page?

### 4/5 — Great for the RCC community, but...

*2016-10-10, version 1.3*

Excellent app for all aspects of RCC. 

Only reason it's not 5* is that the forum is not included. Which is a great shame.

### 3/5 — Buggy

*2026-08-03, version 5.0.3*

Still needs a lot of backend improvement.
