Very baisic

The App hasn’t had an update in over a year. When you spend high dollar on a high end bicycle the app and the technology associated with it should be high end as well. The lock out feature for the computer on the bike does its job, but when you enter a passcode to lock it, you don’t have to enter the passcode ode to unlock it which defeats the purpose of a passcode. Also the ride log feature doesn’t work which is disappointing. I would like to look back and see how much I have been riding. The app needs an update and an upgrade.

Good, not great

Connects quickly and helps me lock the bike from my phone which is a great feature. I just wish I could use Face ID instead of a pin.

Needs a battery limit feature for charging as others have said.

Ver 1.4 crashing and shutting off bike.

On a ride into work, my bike would suddenly shut down and then the app would crash. I was riding in 17° weather so maybe that had an impact. I could successfully restart the bike and it would stay on as long as I didn’t use the app. Not many features in the app either making it kind of useless. Would love if they would just add the Globe Haul line to the Specialized app.

Needs A LOT of work

The bike is phenomenal. The app is pretty terrible. Specialized needs to fire this dev team and get the dev team that writes the baseline Specialized app to figure this one out. This app feels like it’s made by a marketing agency which means it’s utter garbage.

Nothing really works. There’s the review. And the UI is hideous. Terrible product.

Useful for locking and seeing battery % but that’s it

I would expect this app to be similar to the app my wife uses on her Specialized Vedo. It sets default values. It allows battery charging to be set to 80%. And it locks the bike and sets the alarm.

This app needs the ability to save the light setting at least. And ideally the default assist level.

The other problem is that I tried to use this with the Specialized Ride app to record my rides and upload to Strava. But if you connect Strava to the Ride app the Globe app will also upload to Strava with incorrect bike information and no GPS. Specialized is aware of this but has no intention of fixing the problem.

I do wish the software was as good as the Specialized bikes!!! They deserve better.
