## What is RideWell℠?

RideWell℠ provides driving feedback to personal automobile policyholders of The Cincinnati Insurance Companies, helping them become safer and better drivers.

The app automatically detects when driving starts and stops by using the drivers’ smartphone sensors to measure their vehicles’ movements. RideWell runs in the background and uses GPS and low-power sensing methods to reduce battery consumption as it logs all driving trips. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically reduce battery life. The app shows trip summaries, details on driving habits and gives useful feedback on becoming a better driver.

To use the RideWell app, drivers are insured by The Cincinnati Insurance Companies and gain access when the policyholder enrolls in RideWell through the MyCincinnati app. For additional information, insureds should call their independent agent recommending RideWell.

### 5/5 — Making Me a Better Driver

*2026-03-21, version 3.0.2*

If you want to do something better, measure your progress.   This app is helping me think about my driving and phone usage.  I also appreciate that I should get a safe driver discount.

### 5/5 — New

*2026-02-06, version 3.0.2*

It does let you know where you are doing things wrong or right.

### 5/5 — RideWell

*2025-12-23, version 3.0.2*

Great

### 5/5 — Interesting info!

*2025-12-18, version 3.0.2*

This app is cool. Tells it like it is. My husband and I are competing to see who gets the best driving score. He was winning on distractions! Thanks Cincinnati for being a great company!!!! NKZ

### 5/5 — Early problem.

*2025-10-20, version 3.0.2*

One complaint early on .  It claimed I used my phone while driving.  I NEVER use my phone while driving.  Too, I have a $600.00-ish dash cam recorder system to back me up on that.
  Otherwise, it's interesting in its technology.

### 5/5 — Cincinnati RideWell

*2025-09-18, version 3.0.1*

Informative and comprehensive.

### 5/5 — 13 Days

*2025-08-14, version 3.0.1*

Been using the app for 13 days.  Very easy to use and to record if passenger or driver.  Actually helps me watch my speed and avoid distractions.

### 1/5 — THIS APP IS A SCAM

*2025-05-13, version 1.1.0*

So my wife and I started using the app about 2 1/2 months ago. We have both consistently had average scores of 97-100 for nearly the entire time and certainly the last 6 weeks. Yesterday, May 12, 2025 my “two-week average score” was a 98 and my wife’s was 100. Today mine mysteriously dropped to a 63 and hers to a 53 for a two -week average - this is overnight! This is mathematically impossible. Mighty shady that we are about two weeks away from the end of the three-month period that determines if and how much discount we will receive on our insurance premiums and our scores drop 35 and 47 points overnight. I’ve spoken to my insurance company reps who basically blew me off saying they don’t determine the scores. I’ve emailed the company who owns this app but haven’t heard back yet. What a farce this is. I wouldn’t waste your time with this app if this is how they operate.

### 5/5 — Good driving overview

*2025-05-08, version 1.1.0*

App works well although it is just technology and can’t understand situations drivers encounter, i.e., hard acceleration to merge onto freeway. Overall, I am pleased with it if it will lower my rates.

### 3/5 — All good with the app

*2025-04-29, version 1.1.0*

The app does disconnect from an iPhone 8
