Still, this is the setup I prefer. It's not for everyone, but nothing is.
You will thank me for this
RWGPS has a setting that keeps the screen on while the app is running. As soon as you close the app once the ride is over, the screen also switches off. It's available when you start a ride, in the three dots on the top right hand corner (Keep Screen On) but once you set it, it remains set for all your rides.

Having said all that, I am leaning towards getting a dedicated gps unit for my bike. The charging point of my phone has started to act up now and accepts only certain cables.
