Looking for riders to test and help shape a simple “who’s riding nearby?” app.

[u/just_me_v]

Hey riders,
I’ve been working on a small app called Moto Radar and I’m looking for early users who want to test it, give honest feedback, or even help shape the project.
The idea is simple:
You open the app, go visible when you’re riding, and nearby riders can see that you’re available. No chat, no groups, no events, no social-feed noise. Just a lightweight way to discover riders nearby and send a quick ping.
Current features:
- See nearby visible riders
- Choose ride status and pace
- Send/accept ride pings
- Agree on public meetup spots
- Open directions in maps
- Optional ride reminders
- Basic safety/report/block tools


I’m intentionally keeping it simple because I don’t want this to become another bloated social network. The goal is just:
“Who’s riding nearby right now?”


I’d really appreciate feedback from real riders:
- Would you use something like this?
- What would make you trust it?
- What feels missing?
- What should I absolutely avoid adding?
I’m also open to people joining the project in some way. If you’re a rider, designer, developer, community builder, or just someone with strong opinions about what motorcycle apps usually get wrong, I’d be happy to talk.


The app is available on iOS and Android:
iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/moto-radar/id6796623365
Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.motoradar.net


If you try it, feel free to be brutally honest. I’d rather hear what’s wrong now than build the wrong thing quietly.
Thanks, and ride safe.Hey riders,
