Help

Short answers to the things that go wrong. If none of this fixes it, there is a person to email at the end.

The app has gone from my phone

Ridgeflow runs in your web browser. The icon on your home screen is a shortcut to it. Deleting the icon does not delete your account. Your saved routes and favourites are kept with your account. They come back when you sign in.

iPhone or iPad

  1. Open Safari. This step does not work in other browsers on an iPhone.
  2. Go to ridgeflow.camp and sign in.
  3. Tap the Share button. It is a square with an arrow pointing up.
  4. Scroll down and tap Add to Home Screen. Then tap Add.

Android

  1. Open Chrome and go to ridgeflow.camp. Sign in.
  2. Tap the three dots at the top right.
  3. Tap Install app. If you do not see it, tap Add to Home screen.

Laptop or desktop

Bookmark ridgeflow.camp. In Chrome or Edge you can also click the install icon at the right end of the address bar.

Two things live on the phone, not in your account. Offline maps must be downloaded again from the Offline tab. If you have trips in My Trips, export them as a GPX file before you remove the app.

Paying, the 14-day trial and cancelling

You can try every feature for 14 days. A card starts the trial, and nothing is charged until day 14. Stripe emails you a week before it ends. Cancel before day 14 and you pay nothing; if you don't, your plan starts on day 14. Without a trial or a plan the app asks you to start one; a route someone shares with you still opens for anyone.

To change your card, get a receipt or cancel, open the app and tap Account. Then tap Manage subscription. That opens the billing page run by Stripe, who take our card payments. Your next payment date and amount are shown there.

An offline map is missing

Always check that your map is there before you lose signal, not after.

Talk to a person

Email [email protected]. A person reads it.

Email us

Tell us the email address you signed up with, and what you were doing when it went wrong. That is often enough to fix it in one go.

Is a track, a place or a route wrong? Open the menu and tap Report a problem at the bottom. It works with no signal too. It is sent when you are back in range. We can't write back to you from it, so email us if you want an answer.

Usage reports

The app sends us short reports with no name and no location. They tell us when something breaks. The privacy page says what is in them. Some visits are also recorded as a replay of the screen, with the map and anything you type hidden, so we can see what went wrong. This switch turns off both on this phone. Page views are also counted by Cloudflare, our host, with no cookies; this switch does not change that.
