Nosedive is an independent third-party application developed by Aaron Taylor. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or otherwise associated with Onewheel®, Future Motion, Inc., VESC®, or Benjamin Vedder. Onewheel® and VESC® are registered trademarks of their respective owners. This app provides compatibility with Onewheel® and VESC®-based devices for informational and connectivity purposes only. Use at your own risk, and always refer to official documentation from the device manufacturers. -- WIDE COMPATIBILITY Thanks to extensive development work, Nosedive is the only app that is compatible with all common board types, including VESC®. This means you can say goodbye to switching apps depending on which board you're riding. NEARBY FRIENDS While riding, open the map at any time to see friends who are nearby and sharing their location. Now it's easier than ever to meet up and ride together. RIDE LOGGING* Track, review, and export your riding sessions to help gain insight into your riding, board issues, and more. Export rides to your favorite 3rd-party tools for even deeper analysis and features. LIVE ACTIVITIES* Most of us don't want to open the app to check on battery, trip distance, or toggle our lights. With Live Activities available on the lock screen and Dynamic Island, you can quickly glance at your phone to get the information you need without having to open up the app. APPLE WATCH SUPPORT* Leave your phone at home and monitor your board directly via Apple Watch, no phone required. The included Apple Watch app maintains the same cross-compatibility as your phone. View stats, change riding modes, toggle lights, and more. CUSTOMIZATION Change your riding profile or tune based on your preferences. Save and name your favorite settings to easily switch back to them later. Personalize your app appearance to match the color of your board, or by uploading a small image to act as the logo for your board whenever connected. SPOKEN ALERTS & PUSH NOTIFICATIONS* Monitor your speed hands-free by enabling Spoken Alerts. When riding faster than the set limit, Nosedive will speak your current speed aloud. Speed alerts can also be sent via Push Notifications. SIRI SHORTCUTS Get creative and automate various actions with Siri Shortcuts. From changing your ride mode, to toggling your headlights, make controlling your board more intuitive and convenient when you're focused on riding your board. *Requires active Nosedive Pro subscription or trial https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Whirlpool at 4.7 against Nosedive's 3.8. Whirlpool also leads on in-app purchases (none vs 2) and ratings volume (28K vs 30). Nosedive's advantage is review sentiment (64% vs 22%). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Whirlpool holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Whirlpool has 28K ratings behind it against 30, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 22% of Whirlpool's written reviews are positive against 64% of Nosedive's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Whirlpool ships an update every 5 weeks, Nosedive monthly. The most recent releases landed on November 10, 2026 and October 30, 2026 respectively.
