## What is Bike IQ?

Turn your iPhone into a complete cycling computer, with no extra hardware.

Live ride metrics, your own ride pages, virtual sensors, cycling maps, offline navigation, elevation ahead, shifter controls, and post-ride analysis, built for road riding, training, racing, and everyday rides.

◆ SMART PAGES

Build the ride screen you want from more than 180 tiles: graphs, climbs and elevation ahead, your next turns with the roads they go onto, a radar lane with the cars behind you, rain ahead, live power records, weather and more.

Auto Pages come up by themselves when they matter: before you start, as a turn nears, on a climb, with a car behind, at a new lap, or into a headwind. Switch pages from your shifter buttons.

◆ VIRTUAL CYCLING SENSORS

Bike IQ estimates power, detects cadence, identifies your gear, and tracks grade from the iPhone's own sensors and physics modeling, even without a power meter, cadence sensor, or electronic groupset.

◆ CYCLING-OPTIMIZED MAPS

Maps that make the roads and trails cyclists care about easier to see, offline-first, with one-tap zoom.

Build or import routes, add waypoints and Rest Stops, and get turn-by-turn guidance, with a road type bar for paved roads, gravel and bike paths. Even when you are not navigating, Bike IQ predicts the road ahead and detects climbs before you reach them.

◆ RIDE REPORT

Every ride gets a title from where you went and Bike IQ Highlights, the facts worth keeping. Zoom any chart to the second, select a stretch to see its numbers, and export the ride as CSV.

◆ SMART SHIFTER CONTROLS

Bike IQ supports SRAM AXS and Shimano Di2: track gear position and drivetrain battery, and turn pages, mark laps, zoom the map, mute radar alerts or trigger Shortcuts from your shifters.

◆ SENSORS AND RIDE DATA

Power meters, heart rate monitors, cadence and speed sensors, radar, tire pressure including Quarq TyreWiz, and e-bikes from TQ, Specialized, BESV and Mahle. Heart rate from a strap, Apple Watch, a watch that broadcasts it, or AirPods Pro 3 and Powerbeats Pro 2 (beta). Or ride with no sensors at all.

◆ RIDE SYNC

Automatic sync with Strava and Apple Health, with your ride title and Highlights in the Strava description.

### 5/5 — Impressive cycling app, exceptional support

*2026-10-28*

I’m an 80-year-old retired engineer, and I’ve been tracking my bike rides for 53 years. I’ve used plenty of cycling gadgets along the way. Bike IQ impressed me enough that after just four rides, I switched to using it exclusively to record my rides.

It brings together my e-bike’s motor and battery information, Di2 gearing, Apple Watch heart rate, and navigation on my iPhone. It’s the only app I know of that does all that, accurately and with no drama. Bike IQ has replaced two devices and three apps in my recording setup.

There are still a few things I’d like improved, but at this point I’d mostly be splitting hairs. The app is already remarkably capable.

What really sets it apart is the support. I sent the developers four issues, and the next update addressed all four. Subsequent questions have received thoughtful, specific answers—including honest explanations of what isn’t available yet and why.

I’m still putting it through its paces, but I’m enjoying using it. An impressive product backed by developers who listen and follow through.

**Developer response:** 53 years of tracking rides, and Bike IQ made the cut! Thank you for the kind words, the thoughtful feedback, and for helping make Bike IQ better. It's a pleasure building this for riders like you!

### 5/5 — Pro cycling app

*2026-03-18*

The best cycling app that can def replace $$$bike computers. All stats are incredibly accurate compared to meters. Would def recommend everyone to try it!

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for this.Thanks so much for this. Really glad Bike IQ earned a spot in your kit, and that the numbers are holding up where it counts. Thanks for spreading the word. Ride on! 🚴
