rMove: Travel Survey

RSG

About this app

rMove is revolutionizing transportation research by using in-app surveys and GPS data collection to reveal users’ travel habits and needs.

How do you sign up? rMove can only be used by people who are invited to participate in a study and requires a unique access code to log in. Just download the app, follow the instructions, answer your surveys, and rMove takes care of the rest!

Why should you use rMove? As technologies and the way people get around continue to change, rMove helps organizations understand how, when, where, and why people travel. Participating in an rMove study helps your community and saves you time compared to older survey methods.

Want to learn more? Go to the rMove website, which offers answers to frequently asked questions and the fine print you’re looking for. We take your privacy seriously and we are committed to GDPR and CPRA compliance. You can review our complete privacy policy and learn more about how we protect your information on the rMove website.

And because honesty is always the best policy, we want you to know that rMove will use your location even when it’s not open (that’s how it does its magic). As a result, you may notice a decrease in your device’s battery life. This is normal and varies based on your phone’s age, battery health, and use.

Ratings and reviews

Despite the bad ratings I thought it worked pretty well. It did a good job estimating trips and guessing some of the answers to questions like if you were traveling alone. I spent maybe 5-10 minutes each day doing the surveys. When I went snowboarding it thought every run was a trip and it would be nice if there was a way to mass delete trips though.

this survey is a lot of work and a battery hog. i'm not denying this is important transit work, but this is not an optimized app. the app reads movement like crazy; walkikg in my office keeps reading as movement so I have to delete. the app also drains older phone batteries so much i need an extra battery. there was no indication of how much work was needed. for anyone reading, the $10 upsell from the first 25 min survey an extra 25 minutes a day and another survey. judge if that's worth it.

Need a bulk trip delete option. GPS can't figure out where I am despite calibrating and having location accuracy on. So every minute, I jump on the map more than 100ft, despite my phone not moving from my desk. The app records ALL THE JUMPS. I legit have more than 100+ trips I need to manually delete and specify my phone was stationary. I also get a notification for each and every trip... The notification is helpful, but needs to be toned down in count. Husband has same phone, no issue lol
