Leave a Review WATERROWER Connect
Poor stability. Missing key features. Not worth the effort.
I couldn’t get it launch at all on an iPad mini 2, just hangs at start showing the logo but no UI. This kills my main use case, but I tried it from another device to see if I could still make it work.
I get it to work sometimes, but I’ve seen it connect to the Commodule and then drop the connection. The app just stops getting data and the only option is to force close and start over. Which leads to the other major problem, there is no way to delete bad workout records so you end up with a bunch of no-data workouts.
I’ll end up trying the Commodule with Cityrow Go so hopefully it won’t be a waste of money assuming the issues are with the app and not the module.
If you just want data you might just want the more expensive SmartRow upgrade, but that doesn’t work with CityRow and is a lot more expensive.Show lessPinballGeek
Connection inconsistency
Seems great but the connection between water rower and my iPad are inconsistent at best. Need to forget and reconnect Bluetooth often.Jchamlin003
Good Idea But Poor Execution
I picked up a Bluetooth module for my WaterRower with the hopes of connecting to my iPhone and Apple Watch. In theory it works but a lot of the metrics (heart rate, etc) are incorrect. Also this app shuts off when not on your phone, this is easily fixable by the developers but hasn’t been done for some reason.
This app needs a lot of work, I’ll continue to use it but it is not enjoyable...Show lessArob1000
Confusing app
Very difficult to understand and no resources to explain anything.Dan Lahaie
Could be better
Here are some ideas to make the app even better -
1. The total time on the dashboard should not reset after 24 hours. Doesnt make any sense.
2. There should be some customization options. E.g. if I want to see how many kms i rowed between x and y dates i should be able to get that info.
3. Any way to show the battery of the com module on the app would be worth it.
4. I dont see my workout data in Apple health although the app can send data to it and it shows as connected.Show lesscyborg238
Worst app ever
I cannot believe Water Rower allowed this app to be published. I do t know who the developer was but this is shameful. It’s 2021 not 2001. We have come a long way. It never works correctly. Too many error messages. It’s basically unusable.Philallbiz
Too much room for improvement
The app could easily have similar options and data display as the physical S4 performance monitor.
It’s not very configurable and not flexible.
It also seems to save (at least) two sessions on the iPhone Fitness app (former Activity) for each row which seems to affect the daily count of stats on this app. I am guessing this is caused by the use of the Apple Watch app when one is rowing.
Hopefully this bug will be addressed and more flexibility will be given to the app in terms of which metrics to display and analyse.Show lessnelsonnery
Doesn’t offer much else right now
I’m hoping this app offers more soon. Doesn’t offer anything more than I’ve already got with my on-machine monitor other than history. Hope to see a more immersive capability in the futureAggie91
Connecting with Sportswatch
Decent enough but would like to see more sophisticated connectivity with hr sportswatch!nordicrower
Why Bother
I get it, it’s a free app. Really should not complain, and I would not except that the app does not add much to the S4 monitor and the connectivity via Bluetooth is not good.
I love my water rower! However, I would not recommend this app.27...
