About

Glide Cyclometer

Read full description

Glide is a focused cyclometer for everyday riders — a big, glanceable speed dial, an honest ride log, and the trip metrics you actually use, on a single uncluttered stage. Mount your phone, tap Start, and ride. Glide measures your speed, distance, elevation gain and time directly from GPS — no sensor pairing, no account, no upsells. KEY FEATURES • Big speed dial that you can read from across the bars • Live distance, time, average and max speed • Elevation gain with a smoothing filter so noise does not inflate the climb • Ride log: every trip saved with a name, distance, duration and a speed trace • Stats: weekly distance, time and elevation totals • Daily distance goal with a clear progress ring • Background tracking so the trip keeps recording with the screen off • Metric or imperial units — your choice PRIVACY No tracking, no accounts, no third-party SDKs. Every ride lives only on your device. DESIGNED FOR THE BARS Whether you are commuting, doing a long Saturday loop or chasing a personal record, Glide stays out of the way and just keeps the trip honest.
