## What is Ryval?

Ryval tracks what you ride and what you drive, without you having to remember to.

Get on the bike or get in the car and go. Ryval detects the journey in the background, records the route, and saves it the moment you stop — distance, moving time, top speed and the shape of where you went, waiting for you by the time you've parked.

NO START BUTTON
• Nothing to press before you leave, nothing to stop when you arrive
• Runs in the background and saves the Ride the moment it ends
• A notification tells you it's there — and never fires while you're still moving
• Works with no signal; a Ride recorded out of range syncs when you're back

OR START ONE YOURSELF
• Tap record when you want to watch it happen
• Live distance, moving and stopped time, average and top speed, elevation
• Switch between the map and the speed trace as you go
• Hold to end, and it saves like any other Ride

YOUR ROUTE, ON A REAL MAP
• Every Ride draws its Trace over a full-screen map
• Distance, moving time, top speed, and the Vehicle you took
• The map on your Ride is free, in full, forever

THE LOGBOOK
Everything you have ever ridden or driven, in one place, none of it behind a paywall. Total distance, total moving time, on the road since — and how many times around the world that adds up to.

Your Peaks: longest Ride, longest time behind the bars or the wheel, fastest you have been, most Rides in a day, and your longest run of consecutive days.

Your Rhythm: the last 52 weeks as a single chart you can scrub through, week by week.

MONTHLY POSTCARDS
Make three Rides in a month and Ryval builds you a Postcard: the month's Rides, distance and moving time, and the shape of your longest one — exported as a single image worth sending.

THE GARAGE
• Every bike and every car you own, with photos, make, model and year
• Name them what you actually call them
• Pick a Default Vehicle and your Rides attribute themselves
• Each keeps its own count of Rides remembered and distance together

FRIENDS
• Add someone with an Invite Link that works in any group chat
• See their last 30 days, their Garage, and the Rides they choose to share
• Beacon shows Friends where you are while you travel, and stops when you do
• You choose who sees your Beacon and who sees your Rides, per Friend, and either can go off in a tap

NO SPEED RANKING
Ryval does not rank riders by speed — not top speed, not average, not a score derived from either. Your top speed is yours: it shows on your own Ride and on a card you choose to share. Never a position on a board.

PRIVACY
Your full-resolution traces never leave your phone. What syncs is a simplified shape of at most 48 points, so Friends see the line of a Ride, not the turn-by-turn. A Beacon reaches nobody but Friends you added yourself.

FREE, AND RYVAL PRO
Ryval is free forever. Unlimited capture, your own numbers, your maps, your full Logbook with Peaks and Rhythm, a Vehicle in the Garage, Friends and Beacons — permanently, with no trial to run out.

Ryval Pro adds three things:
• An unlimited Garage, for everything else you own
• Map Cards, so you can share your Trace over a real map
• Every Postcard you have earned, not only the month you are in

Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings.

Ryval needs Always location and Motion & Fitness access to detect Rides in the background. Continued use of GPS running in the background can dramatically decrease battery life.

Install Ryval, ride or drive the way you already do, and open it when you've parked.

### How does Ryval handle privacy for my ride data?

### Can I add my vehicles to Ryval?

Yes, the Garage feature allows you to add all your bikes and cars with photos, make, model, and year. You can name them and set a default vehicle for automatic ride attribution.

### Does Ryval rank users by speed?

No, Ryval explicitly states it does not rank riders by speed. Your top speed is visible on your own ride or shared cards, but there are no leaderboards.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.5 — 2026-10-25

Here's what's new in Ryval.

Watch Friends ride live
When you watch a Friend on the Friends tab, their Beacon now moves live, right where they are. A row of riding Friends' avatars sits on top: tap one to follow them on the map, and Ryval keeps your 2D or 3D view. Once you have a Friend, a small Invite Friends button takes the place of the invite card.

One trip, one Ride
Stopped for fuel and ended up with two Rides? Ryval spots a Ride split by short stops and offers to make it one Ride again, with each break kept as a Stop.

Landscape Share Cards
Share Cards now come in a Landscape 16:9 size too.

Better playback
Playing back a Ride now starts with a 15-second overview of the whole Ride, and the view holds your heading through Stops instead of turning around.

Smoother every day
A Capture Session now ends about a minute after you park and walk away. If location isn't set to Always yet, Ryval reminds you, so your next Ride is saved on its own. A save the server never answered is retried by itself, and you stay signed in more reliably.

Thanks for riding with Ryval!

### 1.0.4 — 2026-10-19

Here's what's new in Ryval.

Flyover videos
With Ryval Pro, turn a Ride into a Flyover: a smooth 3D video that flies along your route, ready to share. Leave your Rider Model out of a Flyover if you like, and Ryval shows how far along your video is while it's made.

Satellite for everyone
The Satellite map style is now free. A new Ride Coverage switch in Map Style turns the lines of all your Rides on or off.

A simpler Ride screen
While you ride, the screen keeps to your speed. Tap Show map to see your Ride drawn live on the Dashboard. Changed bikes mid-way? Pick another Vehicle for this Ride from Recording settings, and your Default Vehicle stays the same.

Tidier Settings
Settings opens on a short page, with Preferences and Capture on pages of their own. Your Profile leads with your Avatar, and Save sits at the top.

Smoother every day
Rides that start while Ryval is in the background keep recording all the way, and long Rides use no more battery at hour three than at minute one. On the Dashboard, your line and position move together without stalling, and riding Friends glide smoothly to where they are. The Beacon switch alone decides whether Friends see you, and when you skip adding a Vehicle, Ryval still saves one of the type you ride.

Thanks for riding with Ryval!

### 1.0.3 — 2026-10-15

Here's what's new in Ryval.

Your Rider Model
Show yourself on the map as a 3D motorcycle, car or something sillier, in your colour. It appears on your live position, when you replay a ride and on your Beacon for Friends. The naked bike and the sedan are free; the rest come with Ryval Pro.

Live lean angle
On a motorcycle with Ryval Pro, the ride screen shows your lean angle live, right next to your speed. Put your phone on a mount, tap Set upright, and Ryval measures your lean from the phone itself, even standing still. After the ride, see your hardest lean to the left and to the right.

Rides in 3D, and Satellite
Tilt the map with the new 3D button or two fingers to see the terrain and the sky, and the map remembers your choice. With Ryval Pro, pick the new Satellite map style for real imagery over 3D terrain, and the ride profile uses the map's elevation when your phone's GPS altitude isn't reliable.

Clearer maps
Every ride starts at a green dot and ends at a chequered flag, on the map and on your share cards. The map of all your rides draws one line per road, brighter on the roads you ride most. When you open a friend, your own location steps aside so their route is easy to read.

Share more, for free
Every still share card is now free: Shape, Map, Photo and Sticker. Send one straight to Instagram Stories with the new button.

Friends
Get a notification when a Friend starts riding. Turn it off for everyone in Settings or for one Friend on their page. Friends see your Beacon from the moment you set off, and the Friends tab stays up to date while you watch. Invite links now open on joinryval.com.

Smoother every day
Fixes in the Garage, Friend settings and Home Screen widgets, and Ryval Pro now shows exactly what you're unlocking.

Thanks for riding with Ryval!

### 1.0.2 — 2026-10-07

Here's what's new in Ryval.

A fresh look for every ride
Open a ride to see it laid out like your Logbook: distance, moving time, top speed, climbing, your stops and your speed across the ride. With Ryval Pro, scrub the ride profile along the map and see heading, forces, corners and lean.

Share cards your way
Pick Story, 4:5 or square for share cards and Postcards. Choose what each card shows, like the date, top speed, route, your vehicle or a favourite stat. Try the new transparent Sticker card, free for everyone. With Ryval Pro, move and zoom your photo and put your stats at the top or bottom.

A glowing route
Your route now glows in speed colours on the map and on your share cards.

Smoother every day
Your location now shows on the map wherever you browse, your ride list scrolls more smoothly, and slow stretches in traffic now count toward your distance.

Thanks for riding with Ryval!

### 1.0.1 — 2026-10-02

Our biggest update yet. Here's what's new.

Your rides on your Home Screen
Add Ryval widgets to see your latest ride, your vehicle and the days you've been out this month at a glance.

Follow your ride from the Lock Screen
While you're riding, your time, distance and speed stay on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. You don't need to open the app.

Relive every ride
Watch any ride play back on the map, then share it as a video. With Ryval Pro, you can also put your route and stats over a photo of your choice.

See where you've been
Your map now lights up every road you've ridden. The more often you ride a road, the brighter it glows.

Get more out of every ride
See how long you stopped, how far you leaned into the corners on a motorcycle, how much new ground you're covering, and how you ride day to day. Keep your vehicle's mileage, servicing and fill-ups in one place.

Recording that just works
Ryval now picks up your ride more reliably in slow traffic. You can also choose how long a break lasts before a ride ends on its own.

Ryval speaks your language
Ryval is now available in Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese and Thai, with dates and numbers the way you're used to.

And a lot of polish
A refreshed Settings screen, an easier way to invite friends, a bigger view of each ride's details, and many small fixes to make Ryval feel smoother.

Thanks for riding with Ryval!
