Cycle Diary will keep you motivated for your cycling process. This app uses GPS to locate and give the current speed, used time, distance and route in map, also calculates calorie burned when cycling according to your weight, speed and time used. You can save the log directly after cycling or add manually later. Features: ⁃ Show current speed, used time, calorie burned and route in map. ⁃ Two map styles: Satellite and Street. ⁃ Keep cycling logs and also with mood, weather and area icon. ⁃ Calculates total time used, calories burned and average speed for all logs. ⁃ Supports running in background and lock screen. ⁃ Supports pause and resume. ⁃ Share logs info by Facebook, Twitter and Email. ⁃ Create cycling goal with days and distance. ⁃ Supports standard & metric units. This app may use your location even when it isn’t open, which can decrease device battery life. If you have any question or suggestion, please send email to maxwellsoftware@gmail.com.

The Best Bike Computer is a biking performance tracking application developed by a biker. It tracks various metrics from your bike ride and saves them for review in Best Bike or export in a CSV file. The exported file can be opened with Excel for detailed analysis. In addition to saving your bike trip data in the application, Best Bike exports it to the Apple Health application (calories burned, cycling distance and workout). The Best Bike user interface is simple and designed for ease of use during a ride but viewing the screen is not necessary; Best Bike will speak the metrics you choose at the time or distance interval you choose. Best Bike can show you your current location on the map and optionally show you where you have been on your ride. Your route on the map can be exported in GPX format. Note: Continued use of GPS running in the background can decrease battery life.
