Read full description

Everyone in the Netherlands must always be able to receive an NL-Alert and NL-Alert must be clear to everyone. The NL-Alert app helps with this. The app has been specially developed for people who are regularly near the border with Germany or Belgium and therefore do not always receive NL-Alerts. The NL-Alert app is also for people with a visual or hearing impairment, which means that it is not always clear who receives a NL-Alert. 1. People who are often close to the border Their mobile phone may sometimes be connected to a German or Belgian cell tower. Those transmission towers do not send out an NL-Alert. With the NL-Alert app you will still receive the NL-Alert via your mobile internet connection. To receive messages data roaming must be available and allowed. 2. People who are hearing impaired or deaf It can be difficult for them to notice that an NL Alert has been sent. The app offers special accessibility features to help them with this. 3. People who are visually impaired or blind An NL-Alert is sometimes unclear to them. The app offers special accessibility features that make NL-Alert clearer.

Your bike deserves to stay on the road. When the app that came with your bike goes away, your bike shouldn't have to go with it. Byeleigh is an independent app that keeps your connected bike working, so you can unlock it, control it, and ride, long after the original app is gone. We built Byeleigh to help, and to help as soon as possible. It already covers the essentials you rely on every day, and it keeps getting better: we're committed to ongoing updates that add features and improve stability over time. WHAT YOU CAN DO - Connect over Bluetooth: pair once, then reconnect in seconds whenever you're near your bike. No extra hardware needed. - Lock & unlock: arm and disarm your bike straight from your phone. - Lights: switch between automatic, always-on, and manual. - Assist level: set your pedal support from 0 to 5. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Byeleigh has no ads, no tracking, and no account of its own. Your information stays on your device, we don't run servers that collect it. To pair your bike the first time, you sign in once with your existing bike account on its own secure page; after that, everything happens over Bluetooth. HONEST ABOUT WHERE WE ARE Byeleigh focuses on the core features first so it can help you today. Some advanced options aren't here yet but they're on the way, and every update is aimed at doing more while staying rock-solid. If something's missing or isn't working the way you expect, tell us. This app exists for one reason: to keep your bike useful. Byeleigh is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any bicycle manufacturer or its affiliates.
