I have just tried the app on my device. Works ok, but quite a lot of traffic in the blocker app that I would normally block!

Device is on iodeOS 4.10 beta.  
Microg is not signed in or switched on to google services .

Check your iode blocker, or even try turning it off.

You may need to clear the storage of the Ride app to start it fresh.

When do you get the message about google services? When you open the app?

No special settings. Blocker protection is set to Standard for microg and Ride.

Ride app got from Aurora store.

What iodeOS version are you on?
