However at least on iPhone it’s completely useless on Apple CarPlay. No matter what I do it will not display the blue line to follow. It seems to be a major complain online and it still hasn’t been fixed. ### 4/5 — Rerouting *2026-08-17* I wish after planning the route and if you get off course due to a detour I wish it would reroute you to get you back on track! ### 3/5 — Recalculating *2026-08-17, version 9.13.2* Often, when deviating from the suggested ‘turn-by-turn’ route, the app will get stuck in a “recalculating” loop. The only resolution that I have found is to abandon the current navigation route and began again. This feature is the reason that I chose to subscribe to the paid version of the app. ### 3/5 — Disappointed *2026-08-03, version 9.13.2* After reading other reviews I am surprised there are not mentions of the poor interaction of this app. I always use my phone in “landscape” not “portrait” when using navigation on my Harley and the app converts the screen into such a compact view it’s nearly impossible to operate this way. It is also surprising that you cannot edit your route mid ride, like add a stop or waypoint once you start your ride. ### 2/5 — Hot garbage *2026-07-18, version 9.13.2* So buggy. My downloaded routes keep deleting themselves, which is super fun when you’re at Get On ADV Fest halfway through a ride in a place without cell service and you don’t know the area. Works decent for tracking your ride and if there is signal, but don’t rely on this app as your only navigation. Don’t waste your time. There are better options. ### 2/5 — Did not enjoy *2026-07-14, version 9.13.2* Map wasn’t showing roads that were there and it’s not user friendly while on a bike ### 3/5 — Good App but…. *2026-07-12, version 9.13.2* This is really good up, but what makes me mad is I can’t save address to favorites. Stuff like, home, work, or something elementary like that. Nope, this option doesn’t exist! Isn’t safety a concern for bikers? Really don’t want to sit in the phone every time to punch in the same address over and over again. I want favorite address option. Deal breaker for me, stopped using it, even though I paid a full year. Oh and one more thing guys, see how you cancel this after you sign up….. it’s much harder than other programs. ### 4/5 — Pretty Good *2026-06-27, version 9.13.1* I’ve enjoyed the app so far, only complaint is that if you miss a turn, it does not reroute you like Google Maps. You have to turn around and go back to the spot you missed. Other than that it’s really good, the twisty route option seems to keep you mostly off of main roads, making writing much more enjoyable. Works very good with Apple CarPlay on my 25 road glide. ### 3/5 — Butler maps really makes it. *2026-06-18, version 9.13.0* I think with a few extra feature, this could be the best ride planner there is. By adding sub waypoints, and ability to add notes to waypoints, I wouldn’t need anything else except Google Maps to verify the route I found is actually a cruiser worthy road, and not a switchback washboard trail. After referencing Google Maps I then record stops and way points into a spreadsheet to track actual route details, then move the whole thing over to the HD ride planner, which gives better granularity. If not for Butler maps, I probably wouldn’t bother. ### 2/5 — Nothing to do *2026-06-14, version 9.12.0* No events listed poor gps. For sure won’t be subscribing and paying for the app ### 3/5 — So-so *2026-06-03* The 3 biggest issues I have: - The turn by turn voice cuts out halfway. Then it repeats the old instructions when you are at the next turn. Then cuts out the actual instructions again. - If you go off the route, it loses you off the map and becomes confused. Doesn’t center you and connect to a new route. - Map is very much not up to date. If you stick to the route given, it does find you a fun ride to travel. But, will not renew membership. ### 3/5 — No more excuses *2026-06-02, version 9.10.0* Fix the orientation problem in CarPlay. Your app is virtually useless ### 2/5 — Not for CarPlay Users *2026-05-31, version 9.10.0* I wasted almost 30 minutes trying to get this app to work with Apple CarPlay on my Goldwing. No matter what I tried it would not show the route on my MC screen. If you are going to run Rever on your phone only then it might suffice but I would skip it if your plan is to use it with Apple CarPlay. I have used it before with CarPlay so this is a new problem. The developer also needs to account for things like ending a route without actually moving any distance. The app is also hell bent on saving something once a route is started. Maybe I just want to cancel a route and get back to the main map without saving AND without moving anywhere ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Mangelhaft *2026-08-20* Die Navigation bricht manchmal mittendrin ab, während der Fahrt weichen die Abbiegevorschläge von der geplanten Route ab. So ist das Ganze wenig zu gebrauchen und erzeugt während der Fahrt eher Stress und Ablenkung. ### 1/5 — Buggy and not worth it, Google Maps does it better” *2026-08-03, version 9.13.2* Has a lot of bugs, giving wrong directions during the ride, or delayed instructions , and sometimes its just blackouts, better to use the free map apps such as Google Maps ### 1/5 — This app is atrocious *2026-07-20, version 9.13.2* Good idea and good content, but they need professional software engineers. The UI/UX is god awful ### 1/5 — Can’t join a ride in progress? *2026-07-19* I first tried to find help on the support website but the search engine is terrible I was looking for “join a ride in progress” but the search just looks for keywords like RIDE or JOIN. So 1 star just for that! I was testing Rever, i created a route with about 5 way points. I then went on the app to have it navigate the route for me in the app. But instead of going to the actual start of the route i joined the route about 1 KM into it. Well it seems like Rever just wanted to continue taking me back to the start of the route for it to begin. At every possible place to turn it wanted me to to get back to the actual start, even though it still showed the actual plotted route i had planned. Well this is no good. You should be able to get on your route and continue on your way if you are actually on the planned road. Even my Garmin Zumo will do that when i import routes to it. As others have said the ease of use of the app on your phone or Carplay (which i do realize Rever even says its limited to what Carplay is capable of) but i shouldnt have to mess around with my phone while on a motorcycle trying to find various options. Glad i at least hadnt paid for the app. Most comments on Reddit didnt have anything positive to say about the app either. Too bad as it has potential. ### 1/5 — RK Rider *2026-06-23, version 9.13.0* This app was worthless for me. I was just looking for some premature rides in my area. All the rides in the feed are on the other side of the country or several hours away. Really this is pretty worthless and they want you to pay a fee for rides you can’t go on. I don’t get it. This appears to be nothing more than GPS and I already have that. ### 1/5 — No GPX export! *2026-06-22, version 9.13.0* Be advised: you won’t be able to export gpx files from Rever in the mobile application. ### 1/5 — Awful App *2026-06-17* Tried using this in France today and it turned into the most frustrating ride I’ve ever done. The satnav kept rerouting me back the other way, after missing one junction and continued to behave like this on my preset route for the entire journey. It became too much in the end and I ended up using Google to navigate with. ### 1/5 — Rerouting is not working for three ears. *2026-06-13, version 9.11.0* If you are using turn by turn navigation and missed the turn, don’t bother to look at the screen anymore, because rerouting is just not working and I have addressed that problem to rever three years ago and it’s still not working! ### 1/5 — Price Doubling *2026-05-31, version 9.10.0* I liked this app but I’m canceling it now because they doubled the price. I will not pay double. Goodbye Rever. ### 1/5 — Broken *2026-05-30, version 9.9.0* Can’t sign up with Apple account. They are intentionally making it difficult so you’ll bypass Apple and they can harvest personal data. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Decent ride app *2026-08-02, version 9.13.2* Great app wish you could time with out pro but otherwise it’s great for tracking and sharing rides ### 5/5 — Great planner *2026-07-30, version 9.13.2* Don’t ride as much as I used to, BUT when I do, this app is my goto and it always assists in the most efficient ways. Being able to add photos is a great feature. I can still learn to utilize better. Never disappoints ### 5/5 — Perfection! *2026-07-26, version 9.13.2* This app is the BEST I’ve ever used. You will find roads you never knew existed! It has made my riding experience so much better!! I never leave reviews but, this is how much this app rocks! ### 5/5 — Similar Inexpensive *2026-07-21, version 9.13.2* Great product, easy to learn and use. ### 5/5 — Hell ya *2026-07-13, version 9.13.2* I’m Tyler and I like riding motorcycles ### 5/5 — Good enough *2026-07-06, version 9.13.2* Navigating could be better ### 5/5 — Dai *2026-07-03* Great app ### 5/5 — Excellent application *2026-06-18, version 9.12.0* Great application to track your rides whenever I go out of my bike, I track my ride with this application ### 5/5 — Great Program *2026-05-21, version 9.8.0* Great breadcrumb routing program. Easy to use ### 5/5 — Apologies to Rever *2026-05-05* Apologies, my last review was for the wrong app. Please ignore --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
