Review summary

Users praise usability, tracking and social features, but recurring issues with routing quality, map data, and price hinder the experience. The app works well for planning and logging rides and connecting with others, yet reliability and cost are persistent concerns.

Pros

Easy to use and simple interface for planning rides and following others
Strong trip tracking with detailed stats (speed, elevation, distance) and a history of rides
Good for discovering motorcycle-friendly routes and exploring backroads
Social features enable connecting with other riders and viewing others’ trips
Helpful overall tool for planning, tracking, and logging rides

Cons

Routing quality is frequently unreliable: wrong directions, straight-line routing, and routing through busy areas
Subscription is expensive / perceived as a money grab
Map data is incomplete or outdated (missing roads, regional gaps like Belgium) affecting planning
Stability issues: app often crashes or stops working and some features don’t work (e.g., create ride)
Some users report being sent to unintended locations (fuel-stop routing issues, incorrect saved routes)

2026-08-09	Au*****	the app is great and im thankful for the dark map screen however the feed section and other tabs should also have a dark mode this is my biggest complaint coming from iPhone that offered all dark mode versus just the map

2026-08-08	Ni*****	Was hoping to use the app with Android Auto, but Cardo locked it behind a subscription paywall. Hard to justify spending money on this when there are free options that do navigation better.

2026-08-05	Pa*****	very barebones and basic app compared to calimoto for example. no dark mode in 2026? social experience is nearly useless, also no incentives in the paid plan. no integration of cardo connect or any feature sharing/extension. route finding is okay, but bad closed roads recognition. a bit pointless, and feels outdated from the get go.

2026-07-31	Je*****	App works pretty good for navigation, I really like the screen layout. It kills the battery on my phone (Pixel 9 Pro XL) and makes the phone very hot if I keep it on the charger -which is a must. Roadbook needs work - Smaller layout (not all caps), sorting options, organization like Gaia or OnX would be great. Also an option to turn on tracking rather than having it default when used for navigation would make it much more efficient. The amount of clicks necessary to end a ride is a bit absurd.

2026-07-26	Ai*****	Good idea, but doesn't avoid unpaved roads, which is important driving the streetbike. So guess what has happened multiple times during my first trip

2026-07-12	Jo*****	not a bad app but doesn't have speed camera alerts in the UK which for me is a must have feature... I'm still morning the murder of AMIgo by TomTom... I hope cameras are on the roadmap, I'll keep checking back to see if it's been added...
