The Varia™ is your ultimate tool for a confident and safe bike ride when paired with a compatible Garmin Varia device. With this app, you'll be instantly alerted on your phone when vehicles approach within 140 meters behind you, allowing you to stay aware of your surroundings at all times. The color-coded alerts make it even easier to understand the traffic situation, with green indicating a clear path, yellow warning of an approaching vehicle, and red signaling a fast-approaching vehicle that requires caution.

Works pretty well with my RTL515 and my Android phone. Would like more sound and alert options and would love it had split screen support like many of my apps so I could have it and my mapping/routing app showing at the same time.

Screen burn-in! Two vertical white lines from the app UI remain on my phone after using the app for about an 2 hours. Luckily they faded away after 24 hours. Please fix this Garmin! Add some random movement to the UI elements or let the screen sleep when the radar doesn't detect anything.

The Varia app does not support split screen. That would be a nice feature so we could use Google maps and Varia app. I do not want to use cadenza or rwgps app . Thank you in advance.

Good App for Varia devices. Lacks one important feature: in app volume control. For alerts it uses the Media volume setting, therefore it is not possible to turn it louder than the Music.

It excellent when it works, but too often loses connection to the device - especially after recent updates. FWIW, for now the RideWithGPS app is very noticeably more reliable was far as maintaining the connection goes.

Sometimes the sound notifications just stop working. Lack of "road clear" sound notification like in Ride With GPS app is a HUGE disadvantage. Also, will be a good feature to control light on/off. Recommend to use Ride With Gps app, much better than the Varia app
