Most Revolt owners know geo-fencing exists. Very few have actually set it up.
It takes about two minutes. And once it is on, it quietly watches your bike every single day — even when you are not thinking about it.
Here is everything you need to know.
Geo-fencing lets you draw an invisible boundary around your bike's parking spot. If the bike moves outside that boundary — for any reason, by anyone — your phone gets an instant alert.
That is it. Simple concept, genuinely useful in real life.
It works because the RV400, RV400 BRZ, and RV BlazeX all have an onboard 4G SIM card that keeps the bike connected to the internet at all times. The MyRevolt app uses this connection to monitor the bike's GPS location and send you a push notification the moment it crosses the line you have drawn.
Which models support geo-fencing? RV400, RV400 BRZ, RV BlazeX — yes (4G connected) RV1, RV1+ — no (Bluetooth only, no live GPS)
From this point, any movement outside your chosen boundary sends a push notification to your phone immediately.
This is where most people go wrong.
Geo-fencing tells you when the bike has moved. But you can go one step further with the immobilisation feature in the same Security section of the app.
Immobilisation sends a command to the bike's ECU over 4G that disables the motor controller. Even if someone has access to the physical bike, it will not move under its own power until you toggle it off from the app.
The two features work best together:
Geo-fencing = early warning system
Immobilisation = physical barrier
Turn immobilisation on overnight or during long parking periods. If your geo-fence fires and you cannot get to the bike immediately, immobilisation means it is not going anywhere fast.
Many owners set up the geo-fence once — and then forget to check that notifications are actually enabled on their phone.
Geo-fencing only works if your phone delivers the push notification when it arrives. Two things to check:
Notification permissions: Go to your phone settings → Apps → MyRevolt → Notifications → make sure they are turned ON.
Battery optimisation: On Xiaomi, Samsung (MIUI/OneUI), and some other Android phones, aggressive battery saving can block background app notifications. Go to battery settings and set MyRevolt to "No restrictions" or "Always allow."
If you are on an iPhone, make sure Background App Refresh is enabled for MyRevolt.
A quick test: set a very small geo-fence, push the bike slightly, and check if the alert arrives. If it does, you are set. Then redraw your real geo-fence at the correct radius.
Geo-fencing is one of the most useful features on your Revolt — and one of the least used. It takes two minutes to set up, runs silently in the background, and gives you an instant heads-up if anything happens to your bike.
Set it up today. Adjust the radius to 100 to 200 metres. Enable notifications. Then forget about it — until the day it matters.
