I guess this is a bug. Please fix. ### 1/5 — Latest version is buggy *2026-03-31, version 6.0.0* Latest version needs work. Zones do not sync between watch and phone. Most annoyingly, every time I open the app I have to go through all of the equipment selection screens again. The old version I could just open and hit ‘start’. ### 1/5 — Very disappointed with update! *2026-03-29, version 6.0.0* The elapsed time in exercise is gone! I loved that part and would like to see it back. Then this app would again be a 10! ### 3/5 — Reliability issues *2026-02-05, version 5.6.10* Works well some of the time - but frequently stops sending updates to the workout bike, and I have to pause and restart the workout in the app to get it unstuck. This is especially common if I try to multitask on the phone, at which point the added convenience is small. I stopped using and got a chest strap monitor ### 3/5 — Not on Precor *2026-01-18, version 5.6.10* Didn’t work on the hotel’s Precor treadmill or elliptical. Displayed HR on phone just fine. Neither watch nor phone connected. Equipment did have a lit green rfid symbol. ### 5/5 — L’appli pour rendre compatible l’apple watch avec tous les tapis roulant!! *2026-01-11* Je suis ravis de cette application 😁 **Developer response:** Thank you for the review! support@pkfitness.com ### 5/5 — Awesome *2025-12-30, version 5.6.10* Set it up right and it works perfectly! ### 3/5 — I need a reliable hear monitor *2025-12-27, version 5.6.10* Echo doesn’t connect to my peloton bike well. It takes several tries and often it won’t connect. ### 1/5 — Connection drops *2025-12-22, version 5.6.10* When it works, it's fine, drops out when using across other 3rd party apps. Annoying ### 1/5 — Not working after Dec 2025 Update *2025-12-05, version 5.6.10* No longer working with my Apple Watch, iPhone combo with Nordictrack iFIT machine. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Still checking status on my refund request *2026-09-04, version 6.0.8* Paid 20 dollars for a one time premium access fee and now being asked to pay again or only use 20 mins a day. Please refund me my $20 ### 1/5 — Not working properly *2026-08-27, version 6.0.8* I have a problem to sync app with my NordicTrack treadmill. The reported number on the treadmill is not consistent with this app. ### 1/5 — Already paid for pro 2 years ago and now trying to charge me again for features I already paid for *2026-08-24, version 6.0.8* Already paid for pro 2 years ago and now trying to charge me again for features I already paid for ### 1/5 — Teures Abo *2026-06-17* Man kann die App nur 20 Minuten ohne Abo für Workouts nutzen. Damit quasi nutzlos und das Abo ist zu teuer. Dann Kauf ich mit lieber einen anderen Pulssensor als endlos für ein Abo zu zahlen. ### 1/5 — Stopped working w Zwift *2026-05-09, version 6.0.6* Not sure why after 6 months of flawless use ### 1/5 — HR not updating *2026-04-23, version 6.0.6* Recently I noticed that on my Apple Watch Ultra 2 the heart rate stays constant. It did not change I bps the entire 45 minutes. I assume this is a bug??? ### 1/5 — Unable to restore purchased *2026-04-10, version 6.0.3* Will not restore my purchased upgrade with new phone ### 1/5 — Does not work as promised *2026-04-07, version 6.0.3* I needed a way to connect my Apple Watch with my Nordic Track treadmill and iFIT app. Does not work 98% of the time. Customer service does not respond and Apple will not refund! Update: A YEAR later the developer responded. Still no refund and no connection. ### 1/5 — Update *2026-04-01, version 6.0.1* Hate the new update that makes me choose every time I open the app. ### 1/5 — App updated but won’t save configuration *2026-03-31, version 6.0.0* After update the app has to be setup every time you open it. Useless! ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — After recent update (Apr. 2026) *2026-04-07, version 6.0.3* I have to set the app up every time I launch a new workout. This is a real pain. And also every time I launch the app, I have to click through a message that tells me in-app purchases are not permitted. Also a pain. April 8th update. Big has been fixed, app is now working as desired. Thanks. ### 5/5 — Bugs appear to be fixed *2026-04-07, version 6.0.3* Back to loving the app after the bugs were fixed from the 6.0 release. ### 5/5 — Great app. *2026-04-03, version 6.0.2* Full screen color is easy to see from 30 ft in the gym ### 5/5 — Super *2026-04-01* Seit Jahren im Einsatz und bin immer noch total begeistert!!! **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für Ihre Bewertung.

This is a real pain. And also every time I launch the app, I have to click through a message that tells me in-app purchases are not permitted. Also a pain. ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-03-19, version 5.6.10* Works awesome to link my heart rate from my Apple Watch to my Nordictrack treadmill. ### 5/5 — Works great! *2026-03-10* I use this with my C2 rower and EXR app and it works great. Since I use EXR for syncing the workouts to Apple Health I don’t need Echo to do that so have the Sync Workouts turned off. However I was having an issue with Echo still reporting workouts from time to time. Echo support was great in helping me solve the problem - basically Echo will sync workouts if the app is force quit (actually makes sense tbh) so all I had to do was just stop the Echo app when I was done before quitting it. Problem solved. App is great and saved me unnecessary expense buying a HR strap to use with EXR when I already have an Apple Watch. ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-02-18, version 5.6.10* Before Echo I would have had to buy an expensive Garmin watch or IFIT heart Monitor. With Echo I’m able to connect to my Proform Treadmill at one time low cost! ### 5/5 — Solid *2026-02-04, version 5.6.10* Works as intended, would be great if it would work stand-alone on the watch ### 5/5 — Meta quest XRWORKOUT *2026-01-27, version 5.6.10* This is the best app out there to connect VR devices to support heart sensors. I use the meta quest via Apple Watch and this works perfectly— my advice upgrade to pro it’s worth it. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
