exshrimper,
Love it
I got this for Father’s Day but I downloaded the app a long time ago waiting for someone to get the hint. It works exactly as advertised. I can put it in my under seat pouch and still hear it easily and I can’t hear very well. Only a couple of things could be improved. One of them is the distance it picks up a car which is 153 yards. Sounds pretty far but when that car is coming 75 or 80 mph it’s just a few seconds before he is on top of you. Another 50 yards would be perfect. The other thing is when the alarm goes off there could be 3 or 4 cars coming with only one signal, which is fine but you better look at your monitor before you dart back in traffic lane. Anyway the fact is I love it. Wish I had one a year ago. I’m 75 years old and do all my riding on highways and my neck won’t turn enough to see behind me. I stare into my mirror constantly which makes my neck worse. Now I just check my mirror when the alert goes off.
Stairsguy2,
Won't ride without it
My hearing is poor and trying to monitor oncoming traffic is hit or miss. I've found that the radar picks up vehicles before I would have seen them because you can't ride staring at your mirror. I use the Varia w the phone app and with Trekz bone conduction headphones.
With my poor hearing I might not pick up on the phone signal otherwise. The Trekz 'phones do not block my ear canal. Yes I sometimes listen to media while riding, but the audio ring overrides and there on my Wahoo head unit is a graphic showing the relative position(s) of oncoming vehicles. Seeing that there is more than one car approaching is huge.

Lone crow,
Car Back!
I ride alone on back country roads with no shoulders. Love this app and the Garmin Varia 515. With phone in back pocket and phone volume at loud I hear all the cars approaching from behind and have sufficient time to find my path along the white line. I don’t have any visual setup and the way app calls out car back sound, all clear sound, and high speed car approaching sound. I just wish I could train drivers to slow down when passing, swing wide around me, don’t pass me when oncoming cars are approaching from other direction. But alas, some people are just centered idiots!
Bless'd,
Elegant and Useful
I’ve used the app with the Varia back lamp 6 or 7 times and it works great. The screen seems to have everything I need to know when cars are coming and generally how quickly. I’ve adjusted the volume a few times and 80% seems to work well for hearing the warning but not being annoying. I use voice commands to switch between this and my Wahoo app to track my speed, etc. while in Wahoo I still get the audible warnings of approaching traffic.
turbocarr,
Nice upgrade
Having been hit by a car in 2018, I was all over the RTL510, combined with the Cycliq cameras. Although it made my seat post busy looking, and heavier. When Garmin came out with the 715, I immediately bought it. Love it! Battery last a long time and the app works great! I have it set up to record only when the radar detects an approaching vehicle. Worth every penny!
Mr Rainmaker,
Latest update removed cyclist tracking
I have been using Varia for close to eight months, and up to the latest update I was very pleased with the app and the Garmin radar device. Reason for only giving it three stars is that with the latest update they no longer give you the option of tracking other cyclists. So when my spouse falls behind, I have to constantly check my six rather than having the app/radar do the job for me. Previous version had that option, a feature that allowed the users to remain better aware of their surroundings. Please fix this.

Inconsistent and Undifferentiated Chimes
The audio component of the app is a nice complement to the single chime alert of the Varia RTL515 from the Garmin itself. However, the app’s “car approaching” double chime is identical to its “all clear” double chime. Though there also is a different, lower pitch “all clear” chime it doesn’t always chime. Moreover, the “all clear” double chime doesn’t always chime, either. This means I consistently have to look at the Garmin itself to determine whether or not the road actually is clear. A couple of simple programming modifications could easily make this a 5-star app.

Like a pair of eyes on your six
Love the Varia. Not just useful to know when and how fast a car is approaching but also those cyclists coming up fast behind you. WISH it had a watch app to tap your wrist with haptic feedback. Sound alerts become annoying quickly and I’m not constantly gazing at my computer.
3DubT,
Very pleased!
We bought the RTL510 and learned that this app would not work with the 510. I was able to return the 510 and replaced it with the RTL515. We ride a tandem bicycle and the nice loud alert that the app emits draws our attention to the fact that we have a vehicle or vehicles approaching from the rear. The app works great with the RTL515. It connected immediately with no hassle.

Excellent App
Nice and simple app that works seamlessly with the RTL515. Loud, clear alerts when traffic is behind and after it passes and all is clear. I like that it also displays battery life of the radar light (but wish it showed percentage instead of just battery icon).
