What's New in Saddle Sense
1.18.3
October 14, 2026
Fixed: rides that start while Saddle Sense is in the background now record their full route and distance. Previously, if your sensor connected while the app was closed or in the background, the ride kept its air quality readings but stayed pinned to the place your last ride ended, so no mileage or map was shown. The app now restarts location tracking the moment a ride begins in the background. For best results keep Location set to Always with Precise Location on.
