These screenshots use sample content in a preview version of Idle. Your app may look different. Select an image to see the full screen.
Steps
- Open Idle, go to Home and select Meets.
- Review sections like Meets right now, Tonight nearby, What's next, and Your group meets when they appear.
- Open Search to look for a meet by title, city or tag, or find a host in the people results. Results change as you type.
- Tap a meet to review the flyer, time, location, host, RSVP options, directions, and any parking or ride-out notes.
What to expect
Search and nearby discovery use your discovery area and radius. Meets you host or have responded to can still appear outside that radius. Group-only meets also require access through the group or meet. Invite-only meets are not listed in nearby discovery.
You can also select a mapped meet in Home > Meet map and tap View meet.
In the updated app, What's next puts sooner upcoming days first, then nearer meets within each day. It is not strict start-time order within a day: a nearer evening meet can appear before a farther morning meet. Today's plans appear in the current and tonight sections.
Browse meets on the same day
- Open Home > Meet map and select a date.
- In the updated app, swipe the bottom meet card, or use Previous and Next, to browse eligible mapped meets on that day.
- Review the selected meet before opening its details or directions. The selected card also selects its map pin and available weather forecast.
In a shorter layout or with larger text, scroll the detail panel to reach its actions. Only meets you can access and that have a map location appear here.
Nearby tools
Check weather for a meet
- Open Home > Meet map and select a mapped meet.
- Tap the cloud/sun weather button on the map to show the hourly forecast, where available.
- Scroll through the hourly conditions, precipitation probability, and temperature. Tap the button again to hide weather.
The panel starts hidden each time you open the map. Today begins at the current hour; future dates begin around the meet's start time when forecast coverage exists. Times and temperatures follow your iPhone's settings.
Past dates or dates outside forecast coverage may show weather as unavailable. If a request fails, use Retry. Test-drive map forecasts are labeled Sample weather.
E85 and photo spots
If you are planning a drive around a meet, Search can also help with E85 and fuel tools or photo spots where available.
Review your nearby radius
From Home, open your avatar sidebar, then Settings → Navigation. Under Nearby radius, choose a distance. Select Even further to choose a custom distance.
Your choice appears beneath Navigation when you return to Settings. If nearby meets are still missing, check location access as well.
