Hey everyone, I’ve been working on a cycling app focused more on gamification, territory control, rankings and daily riding motivation instead of pure fitness tracking. Right now it’s Android only, and I’m trying to better understand how cyclists in the US actually track and experience their rides before pushing the project further.

I’m curious what people here in Portland really use day to day. Are most riders on iPhone or Android? Do people mostly track rides directly from their phones or are bike computers basically the norm now? I see a lot of Garmin and Wahoo online, but I’m not sure how common they actually are among commuters and casual riders versus more serious road cyclists.

Also wondering how important things like navigation, battery life, sensor support and Strava integration really are in practice. Would people ever use a more “game-like” cycling app during normal rides, or do most riders mainly care about clean stats and route tracking?

Trying to learn from real cyclists instead of just relying on app store data and cycling channels.

Napravio sam aplikaciju za ljude koji koriste bicikl u svakodnevnom životu, ne samo za trening ili sport. Strava je odlična, ali mi deluje više fokusirana na brzinu, segmente i performanse. Hteo sam nešto praktičnije za vožnje do posla, po gradu, do prodavnice ili za svakodnevne obaveze. Aplikacija ima praćenje vožnji, planiranje i čuvanje ruta, garažu za bicikle sa kilometražom, troškovima i servisima, bike sharing stanice u blizini, prijavu opasnih mesta/loše infrastrukture, XP, dostignuća i timove. Fokus nije “ko je najbrži”, nego kako bicikl može biti korisniji u stvarnom životu: sigurnije rute, bolja organizacija i malo motivacije da se češće vozi. Da li bi vam ovako nešto bilo korisno? Šta vam najviše fali u Stravi, Komootu ili Google Maps?
