Save a ride without signal

Rides saved with no connection wait on your phone and upload by themselves.

Updated 18 October 2026

The best roads often have no signal. You can still finish and save a recorded ride.

How it works

Save as usual, with a name, tags and photos. With no connection, the ride goes under Waiting to upload at the top of the Rides tab, marked Waiting for signal. It's safe on your phone, even if you close Byker.

When you're back online, Byker uploads it by itself: when you open the app, and every minute while a ride is waiting. To try straight away, tap the ride and choose Upload now.

How many can wait

On the free plan, up to 5 recorded rides can wait on your phone at once. With Byker Premium, any number can.

If a ride can't upload

The ride stays under Waiting to upload with the reason, and is never thrown away without asking. If you've reached the free plan's private rides, choose Publish it or Make room. You can also Try again or discard it.
