Por favor tan difícil es añadir el segundo idioma más hablado en el mundo sino el primero gracias ### 5/5 — Zones *2020-12-14* I’m new to this app. I like the app. But what does each zone mean in different color? **Developer response:** The Cycling app models our zones after Peloton's zones since many of our users are Peloton users. Here is a link that describes these zones more. https://support.onepeloton.com/hc/en-us/articles/217019646-Heart-Rate-Zones#:~:text=Our%20Heart%20Rate%20Zones%20feature,rate%20zone%20on%20the%20touchscreen. ### 5/5 — Best Ever!!!!! *2020-12-12* This app has helped me achieve goals that I have never been able to do before in my life. It has helped me to lose 60+ pounds and continuing. Don’t hesitate to purchase this app!! **Developer response:** Wow! Good for you!!! So great to hear! support@pkfitness.com ### 5/5 — Estupenda *2020-12-11* Para mi el mejor compañero en mis sesiones de spinning ### 5/5 — Best App Ever! *2020-12-11, version 1.20.0* For those exercising on a stationary bike this is the app for you. It’s simple interface and superb features will allow you to monitor, assess and maximize each of your workouts! Love it! ### 5/5 — Great app. No issues so far! *2020-09-26* I’ve recently entered the world of indoor cycling, and I’ve found that many cycling apps offer a lot of different options that are poorly implemented. This app is very simple with very few options, but everything works great! I wish it would connect to my cadence sensor, but not a big deal overall. I’m just glad it connects to my Apple Watch with no hoops to jump through. Keep up the great work! Edit: ok, I’ve ran into one small problem. The iPhone mirror heart rate and points do not stay in sync with watch (workout time does stay in sync). So, for example, my heart rate might be 120 on the watch when the iPhone mirror says it is 130. I am currently using an s3 watch, so maybe it might be a hardware limitation. Upgrading to the s6 in a couple weeks, so hopefully this won’t be an issue with the s6. **Developer response:** Thanks for reporting the issue with mirroring. Will check this out and see if we can address it! ### 4/5 — Map support needed *2020-08-23* Otherwise a perfect app, please add map support to it. Only reason why I switched back to apple fitness app. ### 5/5 — Excelente control de FC *2020-07-26* Buenísima para ir controlando tu frecuencia cardiaca en la bici. Es más sencillo para ubicar tu zona de quema de grasa o resistencia. Las metas semanales de puntos te dejan saber que tanto tiempo promedio quieres hacer por día. Los mails con las gráficas de FC son increíbles Pat entender mejor tus zonas. ### 4/5 — Great app! Needs a map *2020-07-15* Thank you for the great app. If only it could map your ride so we don’t have to use two apps at a time, that could be awesome. **Developer response:** Hi Admdoov, the Cycling companion does provide a route map for outdoor rides. It's possibly your permissions are not set correctly. Reach out to support@pkfitness.com and we can help figure out why you are not getting maps for your workouts. ### 5/5 — Great app - can this be casted on to a peloton bike? *2020-07-14, version 1.7.0* I like this app a lot. It does everything I want in a cycle app. Could be extended to cover difference exercise types in fitness. I don’t know what adaptive heart rate means. Please explain developer. Also can this be casted in to the peloton screen instead of just looking at your Apple Watch every 2 mins. ### 5/5 — Ein Feature fehlt! *2020-07-09* Würde gerne den Puls oder zumindest eine Benachrichtigung auf dem iPhone einstellen können. Dass ich nicht ständig die Hand von Lenker nehmen muss. ### 5/5 — great for peloton workouts *2020-06-24, version 1.6.27* great for seeing my zones on my wrist while i use my bike ### 5/5 — Love! *2020-06-24, version 1.6.27* This is great for at home spinning! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Misleading *2025-04-23* App description does not say “includes in app purchases” but you can basically only use one feature without paying for subscription. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t open anymore *2022-06-25, version 1.37.0* Ever since I got my Peloton, this app doesn’t open. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t track heart rate properly *2021-05-21* Zones should match heart rate and lower zones burn less calories and receive less points. The app doesn’t track higher heart rates so you can be at 90% HR and it tracks it as a resting rate giving zero points therefore never meeting workout goals. Also, customer service takes forever to reply and and when they do if have additional questions they never respond. **Developer response:** Zones do indeed match your heart rate zones and lower zones do indeed burn less calories and receive less points. Sounds like you have a problem preventing you from getting proper heart rate to the app. You can reach out to us at support@pkfitness.com. We generally respond within 24 hours and are happy to assist via email or a call. Today we have no open tickets in our support queue so you might want to check your spam folder for our reply or send another email to us and we would be happy to get you up and running. ### 1/5 — Sync in real-time with peloton bike? *2020-06-14, version 1.6.23* Does this do that? If not then I still need to wear a separate heart rate monitor if I want my stats to be recorded to each peloton class on the bike. Please fix! ### 1/5 — Useless *2020-05-19, version 1.4.8* This app is useless, I enter my Apple ID login, it goes thru, then fails. My password was entered correctly. ### 1/5 — Signing Me Out *2020-04-30* It’s frustrating when I go to workout and I have been signed out some how??? And then it continues to ask me to sign in and doesn’t accept my password!!! Beyond frustrating I just want to freaking workout!!! **Developer response:** Hi Megan*Jay, Still an issue for you? support@pkfitness.com ### 1/5 — Sign In with Apple not working. False Advertising *2020-04-21* Your App Store description and App Store images both state that you use Sign In with Apple. During the setup process on the watch, the app is prompting for name and email. I downloaded this because of the promise of privacy. Either the application is being falsely advertised or something isn’t working. In any case, apps like this can live entirely without identity and should when when possible. Apple gives developers the Health App and HealthKit so apps can truly be made private by design. Why do you need an email to begin with? Seems things aren’t so private after all. Update: Thanks for your response. Feels like something isn’t working as you have mentioned. Your App Store description also says that email is opt-in and optional. Is it optional, or is it required? **Developer response:** Email is optional. Read our privacy policy for more info or scan the new Apple Privacy label for a quick overview. Your data is always private to our app, we never share anything with 3rd parties. ### 1/5 — Bad support *2020-04-17* I used this app for 7 days on my apple watch and iphone(both of them are update to last version) but my data till now dosent show on my phone I sent many emails for support but nobody answered me **Developer response:** We answer every email, usually within 24 hours. Have you checked your spam folder for our replies? support@pkfitness.com ### 2/5 — I really loved this app until the last update *2020-05-30* I cant get any of my history and the app wont open on my watch anymore it goes to a black screen. I am not happy this is how I was tracking myself on peloton or any other ride I was doing with other apps **Developer response:** Reach out to us at support@pkfitness.com and let's figure this out! ### 3/5 — Almost perfect *2020-01-27* I really wish the phone app had a record of my previous rides. I'm not a fan of the summaries being delivered via email. I'm also confused how the app can claim "We do not share or store your workout data." while still being able to email me the summary. **Developer response:** Your workout data is saved and stored using Apple's cloud kit and only you are able to access that data. support@pkfitness.com ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love the app *2025-10-22* I have had this app on my iPhone for a while and now I am beginning to use it with my Scosche Heart Rate Monitor on my stationary bike. Fantastic . Love the Zone, calories, time, and HR display . Love the app. ### 5/5 — Best cycling app out there *2025-07-22* I use this daily and it gives my the information I need to train into zines. I’ve dropped 117 pounds so far because of it. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2021-10-12* I love this app. It works with my nordictrac bicycle and if I have had a problem the customer service was a great **Developer response:** Thank you! ### 5/5 — Cycling workout companion & watchlink *2021-10-01* The watchlink pod & the cycling companion app are 2 great products that work well in grabbing your data and making it available to you whilst working out. The cycling app works seamless with the apple watch. Super easy to set up. Service and support were amazing. They are super prompt in replying to emails. Love the app and love the service and support. Definitely Two thumbs up from me :) ### 5/5 — Great app! *2021-04-20, version 1.28.0* I use this app when I am cycling on my Peloton. Super easy to use and a great asset for my workouts. I can now use my Apple Watch to track my heart rate right on my peloton screen. No chest straps! Super convenient! Thank you. ### 5/5 — Only needs ONE THING *2021-04-06* I’ve been cycling for a very long time and used most every app - this one gets everything I’ve always hoped for to perfection with only ONE missing item: mileage totals for week, month, and year. This app is the most intuitive, w/the killer UX going on making the best use of Apple Watch screen real estate with effect use of colors and font choices and providing the best set of metrics in a highly ergonomic fashion for a quick glances while engaging in vigorous exercise. I use it every time I mountain bike or hit the spinning bike. THIS APP IS FULFILLS THE PROMISE OF WHAT A GREAT TRACKING APP IS CAPABLE OF DOING!!! (Can you tell I am onboard yet?) Downsides? It is pricey compared to some of the competition but nobody else gets it right like this app. Now just gimme those mileage totals and we are all good!!! **Developer response:** Thank for this thoughtful review and the kind words. Please reach out to us at support@pkfitness.com and tell us more about what you would like to see in the milage totals. We're definitely into pleasing our users and you sound like you've used a lot of competitor apps. We welcome and value your feedback on how this should be implemented. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2021-02-03, version 1.26.0* I use this app at least 5 to 6 times a week for indoor cycling, I love the heart rate zones and thanks for adding distance so I can track it. It would be great to add some charts and reporting to show the totals for all weeks and compare progress weekly or monthly. Keep up the great work! ### 5/5 — Great device for peloton bike and Apple Watch *2020-12-27* I planned to get a heart rate monitor for my peloton bike, but now both me and my girlfriend can use our Apple watches to monitor heart rate without any issue. **Developer response:** Thanks for great review! Love that you guys are sharing the Watch Link. support@pkfitness.com ### 5/5 — Peloton must have! *2020-12-21* Just ordered this for my Peloton to sync my Apple Watch for the heartbeat. Before this the connection would fail constantly and was very frustrating. This device is simple to set up and stays connected flawlessly! Buy it you won’t regret it. The customer service has been 5 star as well and are very responsive and helpful. All around great! **Developer response:** Thank you so much! support@pkfitness.com ### 5/5 — The best workout app *2020-12-21* s. I had issues with each and everyone of them. I just happened to find this app. I have found it easy to use and it works everytime. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
