Biking Distance Tracker
authentic ratingPeople love Vima precisely for its simplicity: hit start, hit record, get miles, time, pace, and a nice map, with no extra metrics. The sore point is spontaneous pauses and crashes mid-ride, which lose the exact mileage, plus distance can be 10-20 percent off. It especially annoys people that a once-free app now locks out even lifetime buyers behind a new subscription.

About the rating
The reviews are specific and varied: people have used Vima for years, cite exact numbers like a 10-20% distance error, 20 miles with a self-pause at mile 15, use it even on a power wheelchair and horseback. The spread is honest.
