#UPDATE: No mileage being recorded after latest update so now completely useless#. App is now much improved after its dismal birth. It is now more or less works. Does save battery used for rides now. Sometimes still a bit dodgy after a stop when the bike has switched itself off - usually works but hard to know if phone had reconnected to phone. Mileage since last service still not working after it was messed up a few updates ago. Total mileage now seems to be working reliably.

The Giant e-bike app includes a speedometer and among others, also a built-in navigation. Sure, you need to register, but your data syncs seamlessly, and if you link another Giant bike, all your ride stats stay in sync. Good work, Giant!

Never had an issue with the app & I've used it for years, all the things it sets out to do it does well. Never had an issue with Bluetooth or navigation, updates for the ebike are frequent, I find being able to change power settings useful and effective, trips speed distance etc. accurately match up with my Garmin. Only thing I've not been able to do is register my ebike. Other than that Not sure why the app has so many 1 stars.

Hey giant??? Do you not read reviews??? Says we need to update firmware to use app, bit the app won't update the firmware!! I got a $5k paper weight... yes total junk. Forced update, must be 18 to use a bike app, never works even after firmware forced update. When you do get a working firmware, thry force you to update to a non-working firmware. Total BS.

Ride Control app not working since Oct. 11 2026. I can no longer change support modes during the ride. My bike works perfectly fine as long as I don't turn on the Ride Control app. But once I turn on the Ride Control app, I can't change support modes or turn off the power using the Ride Control unit mounted on the handlebar. Once the Ride Control app is engaged, the only way to turn off the power is to remove the battery from the bicycle frame.

I'd give these zero stars. The first time using this app, it forced you to upgrade firmware before you can use it, update failed, and it's bricked my e-bike which is under 12.months old, like WTH.
