Float Control
Ride together. Nobody gets lost.
Group Rides puts everyone in your crew on one live map in Float Control. Thanks for testing it before it ships.
Highlights
Live group map
See every rider in the group on one map, right from the HUD.
Join in seconds
Scan a QR code or open an invite link. No account needed.
Don't get left behind
One tap tells the group you've crashed, are lost or need them to wait.
Private by design
Only your group sees your location. All ride data is deleted when the ride ends.
No board needed
Join from your phone alone, whether you ride an FM board or an EUC or anything else.
On your wrist
Send group alerts from Apple Watch and Wear OS (PRO only).
Host a ride (PRO)
Set the start time, duration and route. The ride starts when you tap Let's Go.

Host a ride

Alerts
Send the group a quick alert from the ride screen. Everyone sees who sent it and where.
FAQ
Can I join without a VESC board?
Yes. Anyone with Float Control can join from their phone. Use Floaty or VESC Tool, or even ride an FM board or other vehicle.
Do I need an account?
No. You only pick a rider name.
Who can see my location?
Only the riders in your ride.
What does the server keep?
Your name and positions, only until the ride ends. Abuse reports are kept for review.
How do I stop sharing my location?
Leave the ride. Sharing also stops when the ride ends.
Can strangers join?
Only people with your QR code or link. Lock the ride once everyone is in.
Someone is behaving badly.
Report them. The host can remove them from the ride.
What happens if I crash?
Automatic crash detection is on the roadmap. For now, send a crash alert yourself if you need the group.
