Sadly lacking
I have been using this app with my Sportplus exercise bike for a few months. I am in the UK and so was pleased to see one had the option of using non-metric units. Unfortunately this does not feed through to the communication with the bike during an exercise session. Essentially the figures shown for distance and speed are still the metric equivalents. i.e. the display,any day 8 miles, it really means 8 km. I tend to use the Google Maps integration. This works, but: a) if you set a target destination the route you cycle always stops 2 km or so short of your target. b) routes can’t be saved for future use. c) routes can only be from A to B. No waypoints can be included, and so no circular routes can be constructed.
BTW: I gave up trying to set the user profile - the up/down arrows for setting the parameters have a mind of their own (typically not working at all!). Pretty appalling stuff really.

Crash, crash, crash
App consistently crashes every single time I try to connect to the sport plus rowing machine.
Good app crashes quite a lot.
The Bluetooth connection is very unstable, unlike other similar apps, I don’t think they are using Apple API’s correctly.

All in all a good start; but a long way from being a polished app.
