POWER UNIT


Here you can change units to Watt/Kg or FTP.

AUTO PAUSE


When this function is ON, your ride will automatically pause if your avatar does not move (you are not pedaling) for 5 seconds or more.

When you pedal again, the ride continues.
Valid only for just Ride mode.

SAVE WARMUP AND COOLDOWN


For the Time Trial TRIAL mode,
it is possible to enable or disable the inclusion of WARMUP before the ride or COOLDOWN after the ride in the performance statistics.

CAMERA DISTANCE


Here you can change the distance of the camera view for your avatar.

ME - AVATAR is hidden, you are looking directly at the road.

NEAR - you are looking over your AVATAR's shoulder.

MIDDLE - this is a close-up view of the AVATAR's back.

FAR - A view of the AVATAR's back from a distance.

GRAPHICS QUALITY


Choose between low, normal, and high values that affect the quality level of the graphical display of UI scale objects. Also, it depends on your hardware - users with poor hardware (older phones, PCs, laptops, etc.) should choose a lower-quality display.

VIDEO STREAMING QUALITY


This denotes the resolution the video is downloaded in. It is affected by your internet connection speed. If you have a strong and fast internet connection, you can stream in high quality. If not, lower streaming quality will work better for you. Another option is to download a route.

DRAFTING


Here you can turn on/off the drafting feature.

Drafting works the same as in real-life: when you catch up just behind another rider, you will feel less resistance, making it easier to ride. You can feel it when you are approaching a rider who is from 15 to 0 meters ahead of you.

HIDE OTHER USERS


Starting from App version 2.22.0 there is a possibility to hide other riders on the route. 

Please note, the others will disappear from your view only, they will be able to see you on the route. The feature is not available in Group Rides and Races.

SHOW RIDER LABELS (NAMES)


Starting from App version 2.18.0 you can show or hide riders' names (their labels above their heads) on the route if you find it disruptive during the ride. 

SHOW DETAIL ALTITUDE CHART


Here you can hide or show the Altitude chart during the ride.

SHOW NEARBY LIST


It is a list of the riders that are close by or near you during the ride. This feature is on the left side of the screen. It also shows the names of the riders, their POWER, their CAREER LEVEL, and their distance from you.

SHOW SPLIT INFORMATION

here.

ENABLE SOUNDS


Switch the sounds on/ off. Sound is available at the race finish only.

ALLOW PANORAMIC VIEW


On the ROUVY App, there are routes with PANORAMIC VIEWS. A PANORAMIC VIEW is wide and unobstructed so as to take in an extensive area in all directions. You can find the route with a PANORAMIC VIEW in the ROUTE CATALOGUE under the heading EXPLORE THE WORLD. You can allow the panoramic view here.

STRAVA LIVE SEGMENTS


STRAVA Live Segments allow athletes to compete against their Personal Best (PR) efforts ridden previously on the route with segments using ROUVY or to compete with the King or Queen of the Mountain (KOM or QOM), the fastest rider in that segment. Here is the direct link to STRAVA Live Segments.

To start STRAVA Live Segments at ROUVY, make sure you have the 2.11.0 version or the newer version of the ROUVY App. 

AUTO 360° CAMERA


You can manually turn on/off the AUTO 360° CAMERA here to control the camera views completely. This is specifically used for OmniMode routes where you can change the camera angles.

LANGUAGE


Change the language of the App.
Available languages are English, Spanish, Czech, German, Italian, and French.

UI SCALE


The UI SCALE is the scale of the dimensions of your Graphical User Interface and User Interfaces like the Menu and the Interfaces in-game. You can increase it max by 150%.

REALITY LEVEL


The REALITY LEVEL is a tool, which helps you to set up the level of true load, but only in JUST RIDE mode.

The default is 100%, which is the real load.

If you want a lower load, you can set it to less than 100%. Of course, if you want a higher load, you can set it to more than 100%. With 150% of the reality level, you will get one and a half the higher load, and of course, with 50%, you will get twice the lower.

GHOST RIDERS COUNT


These are riders that a user can add if they do not want to feel alone during the ride. The maximum number of GHOST RIDERS you can add is 10.

Find out more information about GHOST RIDERS here.

RECOMMEND NEXT RIDE


When you finish your route in Just Ride mode, you can continue on another recommended RideNext route automatically, just turn on this feature. More information is in this article.
