Latest

1 October 2026
App 1.0.21
- Saying "RiVo" pauses your music for the whole conversation and resumes it where it left off, like a phone call.

30 September 2026
App 1.0.20
- Your rides are now always recorded: a ride starts by itself when you move and ends when you stop. Saving it as a route is separate and optional. Setting: Privacy > Record rides automatically.
- Rides recorded by RiVo Screen itself are added to your account once they reach your phone; if the phone recorded it too, no second copy is made.
- When RiVo is listening, RiVo Screen shows it too, with your words as you speak.
- Navigation and RiVo speak louder for the moment, then the volume returns to where it was (Voice settings).
- A short tick in your helmet when you press a RiVo Screen handlebar key; you can turn it off in Voice settings.
App 1.0.19
- Fixed speed cameras now reach navigation: OpenStreetMap cameras and official average-speed corridors are added to your route and announced as you approach.
- Over the limit inside a speed-check range, the screen flashes red and white and RiVo says "Slow down", repeating until you're under the limit.
- Checks shown as zones (Turkey) are announced as soon as you enter the zone; some used to go unannounced.
- RiVo speaks at full volume at low speed too, so it isn't lost under the music in town.
App 1.0.18
- When your helmet headset is connected over Bluetooth, RiVo listens through the helmet microphone: with continuous listening on, "Hey RiVo" is heard in the helmet, and with it off, dictation also uses the helmet. Music plays in mono while the helmet microphone is open.
- The voice assistant button on your helmet makes RiVo listen; on the first press pick RiVo in the list and choose "Always".
App 1.0.17
- Music pauses when a phone call starts and resumes where it left off when the call ends.
- When navigation or RiVo speaks, music is lowered before the first word and no longer swells back between the sentences of a long announcement.
App 1.0.16
- Incoming phone and WhatsApp calls are announced in your helmet while riding; answer, decline or say later by voice, with the in-app card or with the RiVo Screen buttons.
- During a call the intercom goes quiet and RiVo only speaks safety alerts; everything returns to normal when the call ends.
- Listen to WhatsApp, SMS, Telegram, Signal and RiVo messages; dictate a reply, hear it read back, nothing is sent without your confirmation. Mute chats for a while.
- Commands like "read the last message", "who called" or "call mom" work directly; settings are under Settings > Calls and messages.
- If place card details fail to load, they are retried once quietly and the basic info is still shown.
App 1.0.15
- Dashcam recordings play and save to the gallery with sound (with a RiVo Screen that records sound); "Record audio" switch in the camera settings.
- Instructors can mark an event as a "Training event" and, once it has started, award everyone who came in one go.
- Find an instructor: search approved instructors by name, title or city.
App 1.0.14
- Awards: training badges from your instructor and community badges in one section on your profile; tap a badge to see who gave it, when and why.
- Application and dashboard for instructors: design your own badge, award it to riders you trained, manage what you gave.
- Communities can design their own badges and award them to members.
- Badge and instructor application notifications open the right screen in the app.
- RiVo Screen settings show the order of the ride-screen cards with readable names.
App 1.0.13
- Search also finds businesses that are not on OpenStreetMap (open place data), plus upcoming events and clubs.
- Add a place: pick its location on the map; it goes live once nearby riders confirm it.
