THANK YOU!

This app is exactly what I needed to use on my iPad. The way it fits over the top of the app I’m playing my workout on is perfect. I gladly paid for the upgrade so I could see my history.

Great app. One request

Any chance you could add a pause button to the pro version so averages Cadence doesn’t get messed up if you have to pause? Thanks for otherwise great intuitive app.

Response from developer

Hey there!! I am excited that the next version 1.6.1 will have this feature. When you stop and hit start again you will be asked if you want to resume ;) also full ride history!!

Does one thing really well

This app does exactly what it says on the tin, and does it really well (with a pretty icon and the privacy labels people want as well). More utility apps should follow this example.

Great app

Does exactly what it says, reliably. I use this with Apple Fitness+ cycling classes. Great job!

Exactly what I need!

Using a Schwinn IC4 with Fitness+. Great bike but the RPM display is hard to read. So I keep this app on my phone on the windowsill and fitness+ on the iPad. Perfect!!

You can also overlay the app on the iPad if you prefer.

Thank you!!!

Awesome App!

I recommend this APP for bikes that aren’t digital. I use this APP with my Sunny indoor bike and my Apple+ fitness rides! I can’t recommend this APP enough.

Doesn’t play well with others.

Yes, this app works quite well on its own to display real time cadence for free. If that’s all you need, you’re in luck. But my Garmin Vivoactive watch uses my cadence sensor and when it connects, this app won’t. I really like graphing my average cadence and overlaying with my heart rate on Garmin Connect after a ride, so it has priority over the big, instant cadence number this app offers. If there’s a way to let both devices work I’d love to hear.

Thanks for the review Bill! I wish that Bluetooth devices could connect to multiple receivers at the same time but that is just a Bluetooth limitation. On my bike I actually have a sensor on both crank arms so I can do testing which works out nice.

Update: 5 stars!

*UPDATE* James reached out and went above and beyond to troubleshoot why the app wasn’t working with my Garmin sensor. He even purchased the sensor to test it out himself. His worked, so I reached out to Garmin, they sent me a replacement, and it immediately displayed my cadence! Thanks to the developer for the excellent service (especially for a free app) in what turned out to be an issue with the equipment. Works perfectly and I am happily using this fabulously simple app on my rides.

It detects and sets up my Garmin cadence sensor, and shows the name of it on the screen. But it does not display cadence, no numbers appear.

Hey there. Would love to help out to figure out what is going on with your sensor. It would be great if you could turn on Debug mode in the settings, connect to the sensor, and then in setting hit send email which will send me the logs. That should help figure out what is going on.

Easy peezy!!!

Love the ease of set up. Used my iPhone for the app and it paired with my Garmin cadence sensor 2 within in a matter of seconds!!!
Also, thanks for not charging a fee to get the cadence reading. That’s what I was looking for. some other apps that were easy enough did charge a fee just to get the cadence reading. So thanks. Awesome!!!!

Perfect

Does exactly what it says it does. Works great with my wahoo cadence sensor and Garmin watch.
