Overview of the Indian Motorcycle RIDE COMMAND App

Features for Indian Motorcycle RIDE COMMAND are available through on the Indian Motorcycle RIDE COMMAND website and a mobile app on the App Store® for iPhone® and iPad® and on Google Play®

Data (tracked rides, new waypoints, etc.) and account updates stored in the app will automatically share with your RIDE COMMAND online account. Data and account updates stored in the app will share automatically to bikes that are equipped with a cellular modem and RIDE COMMAND+.

If your bike is not equipped with connected services, you can transfer information from the app to your vehicle via Bluetooth® pairing. View the Guide to Indian Motorcycle Displays Powered by RIDE COMMAND for help connecting your phone to the display. 

Homepage
On the homepage, you will see your motorcycle, number of tracked rides, tracked mileage and the vehicle's ride time.

Community
Community is a feature of RIDE COMMAND that creates a place to find and share rides, places and events. It includes an activity feed to see recently added content and an explore page that allows the discovery of content by type, location, ride length, rating, date and more. 

With Community, you can interact with other users on the Indian Motorcycle App and website. RIDE COMMAND users will be able to view public content posted by other users. You also can like and rate another user's content. Like counts and ratings are visible to anyone on the RIDE COMMAND website or app. 

Users can save content and refer back to it later from their Saved list. On saved content, any updates/changes made to the public content will be visible. Users also have the option of saving a copy of public content besides events. A private copy of the item is saved in the user’s Rides/Places tab. Updates to the original public item will not be reflected in the user’s saved copy. 

You also can create and post public or private events. Public events will automatically be posted to the public activity feed. When creating a new event, the user can add photos, tracked rides, planned routes and website links to the event description. 

The community page can be accessed by selecting COMMUNITY at the bottom of the screen. The first screen is the Activity feed, shown below, where all recent posts are shown and ordered by newest first. Tapping on any item shows its details page, where you can see the full details, rate, thumbs up, view the 3D flyover (for tracks and routes) and view the content on the full map. From this page, you can create a post or plan a public or private event.

To search for events, navigate to the EXPLORE tab from the top menu. You can then find events, rides and places that other users have shared.
