MotoFlow 4.0: Your Rides, on the Big Screen

MotoFlow 4.0 is the biggest release yet: MotoFlow is now a real iPad app, GPX files move in and out right on your iPhone and iPad, and the all-rides view got dramatically faster for big libraries. One purchase still covers everything — iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Mac.

Here’s what’s new.

A Real iPad App

Relive your rides on the big screen. The ride list sits in a sidebar with the map and your stats side by side — and tapping a photo opens it in a floating viewer that keeps the map and stats right there beside it. The Sunday-evening, coffee-in-hand review your rides deserve.

The layout is yours, too: drag the divider to balance map and stats, hide the stats panel when you just want the map, pull the ride list wider. MotoFlow remembers your widths.

Bring Rides In, Right on iPhone and iPad

Import GPX files without touching a computer. Open one from Files, Mail, or AirDrop and send it straight to MotoFlow — with duplicate detection so you never get doubles, live progress you can cancel, and a summary when it’s done. Importing several at once is part of the Open Road Edition.

Planned routes are handled honestly: a GPX with no real ride times — a Garmin or Furkot route-planner export, say — gets a heads-up before it’s added, draws in the correct order, and shows “N/A” for the stats it doesn’t carry instead of impossible speeds.

Send Rides Out, Too

Export any ride as a GPX file from your iPhone or iPad — or pick several, or all of them, and send them out together as a single zip. On iPad, select multiple rides at once to export or delete them in one go. Your rides are yours; take them anywhere.

Your Whole Library, Instantly

With hundreds of rides, the all-rides view used to stall before anything appeared — and on very large libraries it could run out of memory. MotoFlow now keeps a lightweight summary of each ride, so the map, heatmap, and statistics appear almost instantly and stay smooth while you pan and zoom.

Long rides feel lighter everywhere: big GPX files import smoothly with the heavy work in the background, and the elevation profile draws instantly even with tens of thousands of points.

And the Details

The map now centers on your rides when you open the all-rides view — a single corrupted GPS point can no longer zoom the map out over the Atlantic.
Photo thumbnails on the map arrive in smooth batches, and photos taken at the same moment keep a stable order.
On the Mac, sharing your ride stats or a photo to Messages now reliably includes the image.
The upgrade screens now spell out what the Open Road Edition is: one purchase for iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Mac — yours forever, no subscription.

Common Questions

Is MotoFlow 4.0 a free update?

Yes. If you already own MotoFlow or the Open Road Edition, 4.0 is a free update on iPhone, iPad, Apple Watch, and Mac. The iPad app is included — one purchase still covers every device.

Do I need to do anything to get the iPad app?

No. MotoFlow 4.0 installs on iPad like any iPhone update — open it and your rides are already there via iCloud sync.

Can I import rides without a Mac now?

Yes. Open a GPX file from Files, Mail, or AirDrop on your iPhone or iPad and send it straight to MotoFlow. Duplicates are detected so you never get doubles.

What happens when I import a planned route instead of a recorded ride?

MotoFlow notices when a GPX file carries no real ride times — a route-planner export from Garmin or Furkot, for example — warns you first, and then shows it honestly. The route draws correctly, and stats it doesn't carry read "N/A" instead of made-up numbers.

Get the Update

MotoFlow 4.0 is available now on the App Store for iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch, and on the Mac App Store. It’s a free update for everyone who owns the app, on every platform, today.
