Auto-upload completed rides

After saving your ride, the Dash will begin to search for one of your saved Wi-Fi networks. Wi-Fi will be kept off until the end of your ride. Once the Wi-Fi network is found, the Dash will begin to automatically upload the ride data to your enabled connections in the Stages Cycling app. To enable auto-uploading via Wi-Fi, go to Connections > Wi-Fi > Auto upload new rides > Enable.
