Cycling is a popular fitness activity. It’s also something many of us have done since we were kids. You hop on a bike and ride it out. There are a variety of reasons people bike or cycle. They may want to explore the area around them with a method faster than walking. Alternatively, people might just want to lose a few pounds. Whatever the reason, cycling is good for you and there are a ton of places to do it. Here are the best cycling apps and biking apps for Android!
Price: Free trial / $9.99 per month / $89.99 per year
CycleCast is one of the more unique cycling apps. It’s basically a database of workouts for people with stationary bikes at home. The app features over 800 indoor cycling workouts and each one comes with motivational quotes from instructors as well as music. You simply choose your instructor and the length of your workout. After that, the workout plays and you follow along. The app also competes favorably with Motosumo and Peloton, two similar apps for indoor running, cycling, and yoga workouts. You can go with any one of the three.
Price: Free / in-app purchases / $59.99 per year
Komoot is an excellent app for hikers, mountain bikers, road cyclists, and other, similar outdoor activities. It’s a navigation app at its core. You download a region, plan a route, and then bike, walk, or run that route. You can download various regions for various prices, hence the in-app purchases. However, the app is otherwise quite easy to use. You can download maps for offline use with single purchases or get constant access with the yearly subscription. You can use the app for free in limited capacity as well.
Price: Free / $5.99 per month / $54.99 per year
Kudo Coach is another trainer app for cyclists. This one builds personalized training regimens for cyclists. It should work for beginners, intermediates, and some advanced cyclists. The app monitors your heart rate and adjusts your cycling regimens accordingly. In short, if the app doesn’t see you sweating it out, it makes you work harder and switches things up on a weekly basis. It also keeps stats for your convenience. The app is free in a limited capacity and you unlock all of the features with a monthly or annual subscription.
Price: Free / $5.99 per month / $29.99 per year
Map My Ride does what the name says. The app lets you map out your cycling routes and keep track of where you’ve been. The app also works for walkers, runners, and hikers as well. It’s easy enough to use. You track your various biking runs, see your stats, and adjust your workouts or routes accordingly. Plus, the app has a ton of support for third party gadgets such as Under Armour’s connected shoes, Wear OS, Garmin gadgets, Fitbit trackers, Jawbone trackers, and more. Those who subscribe should consider the yearly subscription because it is a vastly better bargain than the monthly one.
Price: Free / $5.99 per month / $59.99 per year
Strava is an excellent app for both runners and bikers. It works a lot like Map My Ride. You record and track your routes, see stats about your various routes, and set challenges for yourself. The app tracks things like distance, cycle speed, elevation gained, and calories burned (estimated). There are also some social features, including a Clubs feature where you can get motivation from your fellow fitness enthusiasts. We especially like the support for indoor cycling since not everybody actually leaves their house to bike. The subscription service is relatively reasonable as well.
