CarPlay, Custom Icons & Drive Improvements
Drive with CarPlay and Live Activities, pick your own app icon, crop your profile photo, and dozens of reliability fixes.
The first update after The Big One, and it's packed. CarPlay support, a smarter drive experience, custom app icons, and a long list of fixes that make everything feel tighter.
What's New
Drive with CarPlay
Start, monitor, and stop your drives right from your car's display. CarPlay shows your live route and stats while you focus on the road. If iOS closes Ryvve in the background, your drive picks right back up — no data lost.
Live Activities on Your Lock Screen
Your current drive now lives on your lock screen and Dynamic Island. Distance, duration, and speed update in real time — tap to jump back into the app instantly.
Pick Your App Icon
Head to Profile Settings and choose from a collection of alternate app icons. Make Ryvve look the way you want on your home screen.
Crop Your Profile Photo
New image cropping when you set your profile picture — during onboarding or anytime from Edit Profile. Get the framing just right.
Link Cruises to Your Club
Cruises can now be associated with a club, so your crew knows exactly who's riding together.
Car Owner on Club Pages
Club detail pages now show who owns each car, making it easy to put faces (and builds) together.
Simpler Garage
Adding a car is faster — we removed unnecessary fields so you can get your build in your garage without the friction. Car photos are now optional too, with a clean placeholder until you're ready.
Better Everywhere
Drive Privacy & Safety
New privacy defaults, a consent flow before your first drive, speed display warnings, and encrypted drive data. Your drives, your rules.
Smoother Maps
Map markers load faster and more reliably, especially when there are lots of events in view.
Club Alerts That Go Somewhere
When your club membership gets approved, tapping the alert now takes you straight to the club.
