Several minor corrections while waiting for the next version of the application which will contain many improvements!
Geovelo, your free GPS application, your statistics and your challenges!
- PERSONALIZED ITINERARIES & GPS
The application adapts to your type of bike (classic, electrically assisted (EAPC), self-service (SSB)), to your travel speed and to the type of route you want (from the fastest to the safest). Geovelo prioritises cycle paths, cycle lanes and low-traffic streets to ensure your comfort, safety and peace of mind. Geovelo includes a real time guidance system (map / full screen / compass mode), with voice guidance and notifications.
- STATISTICS & AUTOMATIC RECORDING
Log in and save your rides to benefit from statistics from your rides.
By simply walking around with the Geovelo application installed, your rides are automatically detected and saved. You can then view them in the application. Please note that you will need to authorise the retrieval of locations when the application is closed or in the background for this feature to work.
- CYCLING FACILITIES AND BIKE PARKING
With its precise mapping system, Geovelo allows you to quickly and easily find nearby Bike parkings and bike racks.
- COMMUNITIES & CHALLENGES
Find other cyclists in your city or organisation and connect by participating to the activity challenges. Get on your bike every day or ride as many kilometres as you can to try and make it to the podium in your community. Note that several competitions are organised to win useful gifts for cyclists.
- CYCLE ROUTES & WALKS
The app also offers cycle routes (including La Vélodyssée®, Via Rhôna, La Loire à Vélo®, La Scandibérique, La Flow Vélo, Le Canal des deux Mers à Vélo, La Vélo Francette®, La Véloscénie, L'Avenue Verte London-Paris and others) as well as numerous walks to discover the heritage and its treasures
- CONTRIBUTIONS & REPORTS
Report missing bike parking, problems or roadworks, dangerous roads for cyclists and much more for the benefit of the cycling community.
- PRACTICAL TOOLS
The app includes many tools such as the display of cycling facilities, the setting of weather alerts on your favourite routes (to advise you on a departure time according to the weather), simplified address searches, etc.
- SELF-SERVICE BICYCLES
Geovelo shows the availability of bikes and parking spaces (SSB) in real time! In this context, we use data provided by the companies Bordeaux V3, Vélolib, Vélo'+, Donkey Republic, V'Lille, Velam, VéloCité, Villo, Velo2, Cristolib, Vélo'V, Le vélo, VéloCité, VélOstan'lib, Bicloo, Cy'clic, VélôToulouse, LE vélo STAR, PBSC, PubliBike V1, Yélo, Optymo, C vélo, Vélib', Vélocéa, Velopop'.
- A VIRTUOUS CITIZEN APPLICATION
The data created from rides recorded with the Geovelo app is anonymised and used in the context of partnerships to help the territories with which we work to analyse and improve the cyclability of their network. It will never be used for marketing purposes. In addition, Geovelo actively contributes to the mapping of cycling facilities alongside the OpenStreetMap community (an international project to create an open map).
- Permissions
- Localization: necessary to display your GPS location and for navigation to work properly.
- Background location: In order to save your locations, speed and cycling statistics, the access to your location when the app is closed is required, for the activity detection and manual recording features to work.
