HappyRide: Auto Ride Tracker

No Start Button. Just Ride.

Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.

Automatic ride, walk & run detection — no Start button, ever. Now with Quiet & Scenic route navigation: pick your vibe, skip the traffic. Forget to hit "Start" again? Not anymore. HappyRide (快乐轻骑) runs quietly in the background and automatically detects when you start riding, walking, or running — no button to press, no app to open first. Just go. It's built for the ride you didn't plan to log: the quick errand, the spontaneous loop, the commute you almost forgot to track. Never miss a workout again. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT - Truly hands-free: motion detection on your iPhone (plus background GPS and Apple Watch heart rate) automatically recognizes your activity and starts recording on its own. - Never lose a ride: every qualifying activity is captured automatically and written straight to Apple Health, complete with route, heart rate, and calories. - Privacy by design: HappyRide works fully offline by default. Nothing leaves your phone unless you explicitly turn on the optional route-planning feature, which needs an internet connection to fetch maps. WHAT'S INSIDE Automatic Activity Detection Cycling, walking, running, and more are recognized automatically using CoreMotion and background location — no manual start/stop, ever. Every session syncs to Apple Health automatically. Apple Watch Companion A dedicated watchOS app tracks real-time heart rate, duration, and active energy on your wrist, plus a watch face complication that shows today's activity summary at a glance. Ride Details & Stats Every activity gets a detail page with your GPS route plotted on the map and a full data breakdown. The stats page rolls it all up: rides this week, total time, distance, and a 7-day trend chart so you can see your progress build. Quiet & Scenic Route Navigation (optional, subscription) Planning a ride instead of just logging one? Turn on route planning to get turn-by-turn cycling navigation that favors quiet backstreets over busy main roads, or scenic paths along rivers and parks. Choose from four route styles — Quiet, Scenic, Balanced, or Shortest — build an out-and-back loop at 5, 10, or 20 km, discover nearby scenic destinations worth riding to, and get spoken turn alerts as you go. HOW IT WORKS HappyRide is free to use for automatic activity tracking, Apple Health sync, Apple Watch support, and your ride history and stats — no strings attached. The optional Quiet & Scenic route planning and turn-by-turn navigation feature is available as an in-app subscription, since it requires live map and routing data. A NOTE ON LANGUAGE HappyRide's on-screen interface is currently in Simplified Chinese only, with English App Store text to help you decide if the app is right for you. Every screen — buttons, menus, stats labels — is very simple and icon-driven, and most riders find it easy to navigate by feel even without reading Chinese. Full English localization is on our roadmap. REQUIREMENTS iPhone with iOS 17 or later. Apple Watch companion app optional but recommended for real-time heart rate. Background location and Motion & Fitness permissions are needed for automatic detection; Health access is needed to save your activities. Ride more. Remember less. Let HappyRide catch every mile you didn't plan to track. Standard Apple Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
