Was nimmst du dir eigentlich heraus? ### 1/5 — Akku fehlt und Apple Watch *2025-05-07* Leider ist mein Akku 360wh nicht gelistet und die Apple Watch wird ebenso wenig unterstützt. **Developer response:** Hallo, ich habe gestern Nacht noch die App für deine Bedürfnisse angepasst. Übrigens ist das einstellen der Batterie völlig unwesentlich für die Hauptfunktion der App. Die Live Aktivität vom Sperrbildschirm wird übrigens auf die Apple Watch rübergespiegelt, sodass du deine Werte auch dort sehen kannst. Du musst nur deine Geräte auf das neuste iOS/WatchOS updaten. Ich würde mich freuen, wenn du dir die App jetzt nochmal ansiehst und deine Bewertung anpasst, weil einen Stern finde ich einfach nur unfair ;) Danke Edit: Hallo, bitte sieh dir die App noch mal an, danke! ### 1/5 — Ne marche pas impossible à synchroniser *2023-10-07* Nul ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2023-06-06* Terrible, connected to my bike but doesn’t even show anything. Everything is always 0 even the battery percentage I have the ep8 motor so all should work. Have tried resetting and reinstalling but no change **Developer response:** Hello, which Shimano motor do you have? It only works with the EP-8. All others are not supported. ### 3/5 — Missing connection with third party apps *2026-08-05* Need to be able to connect with strava or apple watch. The basic like hearth monotoring km should be added **Developer response:** Hello, you can simply use other apps in the background or use this app in the background. The Bluetooth connection to your bike will stay alive and you’ll see the live data from it on your Lock Screen and the dynamic island. That’s how I do it. ### 3/5 — Battery not accurate *2024-08-20* App seems like a great idea. I have a Shimano EP801 motor with a 900w canyon battery. The app said my battery level was at 81% but Shimano E-Tube Ride app says it was at 90%. I’d also change the colors for the assist modes based on Shimano's colors. Eco should be aqua, trail green, and boost yellow. Would also be really cool if this could connect to Apple Watch and set a watch face to show battery level in bold large font type. **Developer response:** Hello mandrews00, please contact me directly under info@stanc.io I'd like to fix this. Interestingly I'm just reading the raw values that are coming from the bike. I don't know what the E-Tube app is doing or if something changed with the interface. I believe the Shimano app is just showing rounded values and they are rounding up. Regarding the Apple Watch: this will solve itself with iOS 18 and watchOS 11 in September. Then you will see the live activity on your watch as well. ### 3/5 — Missing connection with third party apps *2023-06-26* Need to be able to connect with strava or apple watch. The basic like hearth monotoring km should be added **Developer response:** Hello, you can simply use other apps in the background or use this app in the background. The Bluetooth connection to your bike will stay alive and you’ll see the live data from it on your Lock Screen and the dynamic island. That’s how I do it. ### 4/5 — Works OK but *2026-07-24* This app does show the charge level and the time to recharge fine but it also nags you and routinely thinks you need to pay for another lifetime subscription. **Developer response:** Hi, hmm how is it nagging you? Reach out via https://nfc.cool/contact please. ### 4/5 — Super,...aber! *2025-12-17* Ein Widget wäre noch toll **Developer response:** Gibt’s doch, momentan aber nur ein kleines für den lockscreen. Ich guck mal was ich noch bauen kann… ### 4/5 — Frage… *2025-06-11* Wieso gibt es den 360Wh Akku nicht zur Auswahl, den Akku gibt es schon länger (Ah okay, da kam jetzt die Auswahl „Eigene“ dazu, sehr gut. Seit einem Update erkennt er auch keine Unterstützungsstufen mehr (die von Moto ECO, Sport, High…). Danke 👍 **Developer response:** Hallo, bitte schreibe mir doch direkt. Hier über die Bewertungen ist das einfach sehr umständlich. Du kannst die Batterie Werte selber eingeben. Du musst nur „Eigene“ auswählen. Was meinst du mit Benachrichtigungen auf der Apple Watch? Du bekommst diese alle auf beiden Geräten. Deine Apple Watch zeigt den Batteriestand gespiegelt vom Telefon an. Ich verstehe ebenso nicht was du mit „Erkennt keine Unterstützungsstufen mehr“ meinst. Bitte schreibe mir direkt unter info (at) nfc (dot) cool Danke ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Pairing *2026-06-20* Bike paired easily ### 5/5 — Отлично *2026-03-13* Отличное приложение ### 5/5 — Greatly overpriced *2026-01-22* The app connects very quickly for reading battery level and charging. Renting, not buying is generally not acceptable to me. Developers need to be reimbursed for their work, no dispute there. **Developer response:** Thanks for the 5 stars, I appreciate it! Regarding your complaint: I spent my time to build this. What’s wrong about asking for some money to support the project? The app is reasonably priced and the market is small. If you just need it for some time then pay 49ct per week. Seems fair to me… ### 5/5 — Splendid app *2025-09-12* Splendid app ### 5/5 — Works *2025-06-29* Much easier to use and read than the Shimano apps **Developer response:** Thanks, I appreciate your review. It’s because I’m a solo dev and I mainly built that app to satisfy my needs and I love fiddling around with tech :D ### 5/5 — E8000 *2025-03-28* Steps ### 5/5 — Great idea for app and developer is responsive to feedback *2024-08-24* I have a more recent Shimano ep801 motor with a custom 900w canyon battery and the developer is working with me to make sure the battery statistics are accurate for this system! **Developer response:** Thanks, glad I could help! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
