For Bike Commuters

Every commute you've ever ridden, mapped.

Bike commuting is one of those things where the miles add up quietly. Five years of riding to work is a serious dataset - and almost no app shows it to you. MoveMap reads your commute history from Apple Health and draws every ride on a single lifetime map.

The bike commute archive most people forget they have

If you ride to work three days a week, you'll log roughly 1,000 km in a year. Over five years, that's the distance from Vancouver to Los Angeles by bike. Most of those rides are forgettable - that's kind of the point. But the aggregate tells a story most people never get to see.

Strava can show you a single ride. Apple Fitness shows you weekly summaries. Neither one shows you what five years of commuting looks like as a single map. MoveMap does, because it reads the entire history from Apple Health rather than holding onto data itself.

Made for commute data

Lifetime commute map

Every cycling activity in Apple Health rendered as one map. Pan to your home city and see your commuting territory at a glance.

Heat mode

Streets you ride every day glow amber. Streets you've ridden once stay dim. Identify the routes you actually live on - and the ones you've been meaning to try.

Year filter

Drag the timeline scrubber to see a single year of commuting. Compare 2024 vs 2025 territory in two taps.

Activity filter

Show only cycling. Or include walks if you sometimes walk the commute. Combine activity types to build a personal mobility map.

Year in Review

Export a styled portrait of every commute from a calendar year. Useful for end-of-year reflection, work-from-anywhere bragging rights, or insurance discount paperwork.

Coverage stats

Total kilometres ridden by city. Number of unique neighborhoods you've passed through. Highest single-commute elevation gain (if you live somewhere with hills).

What you don't need to do

You don't need to change apps. If you're already logging commutes with Apple Workout, Strava, Cyclemeter, Wahoo, or Garmin Edge, keep using them. MoveMap reads what they write to Apple Health.

You don't need to remember to start a recording. Apple Watch users with auto-detect turned on get every commute logged automatically. Phone-only users do need to tap "Start" before riding - that's the only friction.

You don't need an account. No sign-in, no email, no profile sync between devices. MoveMap reads from Apple Health on the device it's installed on.

Commuting FAQ

What's the best app to log a daily commute?

Whatever requires the least effort to start. The Apple Workout app on Apple Watch is hard to beat - auto-detect catches most rides without any taps. Strava or Cyclemeter on iPhone work fine if you don't have a watch. Anything that writes to Apple Health is supported.

Does MoveMap handle e-bike commutes?

Yes. Any GPS-tracked cycling activity in Apple Health appears, regardless of whether the bike has a motor. Most apps now have a dedicated e-bike tag, but the activity type doesn't change how MoveMap renders the route.

Can I see total annual commuting miles?

Yes. Filter to cycling, set the timeline scrubber to a single year. The Coverage dashboard shows total distance for that filter, and the Year in Review postcard exports it as a shareable image.

What about indoor trainer days?

Indoor trainer sessions (Zwift, TrainerRoad, Wahoo SYSTM) don't have GPS - they're not real-world rides. They stay in Apple Health but don't render on the map. Your outdoor commutes are unaffected.

Will MoveMap drain my battery on the ride?

MoveMap doesn't track rides. It only reads completed workouts from Apple Health when you open the app. Battery during the ride depends on whatever tracking app you're actually using - MoveMap has zero impact.

Does Apple Workout's "auto-detect cycling" feature work?

Yes. If your Apple Watch detects a cycling workout in progress and prompts you to "Record this as a workout?", say yes - that's enough to get the GPS route into Apple Health, and therefore into MoveMap.
