Clearly falling out of favour.
It’s unfortunate but it seems Jabra has stepped away from improving this app. It’s certainly a clever tool, but Jabra’s half hearted attempt at user experience design and support will leave you disappointed once you try to move beyond running. Why they haven’t enabled automatic progression through a cross-training routine, or allowed you to include cross training days in your training plan, leaves me wondering if anyone at Jabra actually works out. Having to confirm you’ve completed one exercise before the app allows you to continue is disruptive to any HIIT session. Too bad. I see the last review before this was a year ago and so perhaps others are starting to feel they’ve been abandoned. Good tech, bad execution.

Outdated and basic app
Compared with the other Jabra apps, this app is very basic and totally focused on the workout side of things. I don’t work out though, and just wanted a simple pair of wireless earphones however I’m having continuous issues with the sound quality and the balance of volume on both earbuds. The app has only the most basic settings for the earbuds which seems poor compared with the other apps, which I would use but due to model of earbuds I’ve got, elite sport, I sadly can’t.

Crashes instantly
Can even open it to use it. Worked on my old iPhone but doesn’t now with my new one. Very disappointed
Doesn’t work
Installed app but seems to crash on opening, total waste of time
Difficult to use
Not user friendly. Does not turn-off automatically when taking them out of my ears.
GPS Fails Every Time
*update: I have contacted Jabra and they will no longer update this app so your headphones are now only useful for music, no running features.
I have started using my Pace headphones with the app in IOS14 and the gps data is rubbish. First day no GPS tracking at all and I found some settings to allow gps either while using app or always. Turns out that choosing ‘when using app’ isn’t good enough even though I am physically using the app. Need to change to ‘always’ and then it found my location.
Next day I ran again and the pace and distance readout was strange. My post run data showed me moving about 5km away in an instant and my pace was 3min. Impossible. Strava app gives perfect GPS track on same phone. Just a rubbish app. Now my headphones are useless because I can’t use them to control my running.

Rate App
Keeps asking me to rate over and over after I’ve rated the app. Actually quite annoying.
Runs stop recording randomly in the middle
First problem:
Twice this week I’ve been running and the run has just stopped recording and ended the run. In the middle of it. I get a notification that says something like “! Jabra elite sport would like to communicate with Jabra”.
Second problem:
I can’t manually upload/export individual runs without exporting my ENTIRE workout history. So putting these broken workouts on Strava is just horrendously inconvenient.
That’s apart from the hardware issues, where my right earbud is barely able to charge.

Screen off
Love the app, I just wish that you add an option where I can keep the screen on while working out to track my performance, I’ve to keep touching the screen to keep it on....
No cross trainer!
All these great features but absolutely no support for the cross trainer! That's basic!
Inaccurate App
I’ve used these headphones for years and have never had a problem but after the last update, I have come across some problems. I can do a 2 mile run and my app is calling it 4. Don’t even use the app anymore cause it can’t seem to get my distance right. I can honestly say that I trust the Covid death toll more than I trust this app.

Qualité de son
J’ai acheté c’est écouteurs pour option ajustement qualité de son Jabra Gn l’application me dirige à Jabra sport Life
Not that gr8
Honestly if you can invest in a set of AirPods I bought these because I lost my pods and thought these would be better. Boy, was I wrong I found my AirPods and have not gone back i would not recommend but if you do decide to waste your money make sure to purchase the insurance plan the store gives and not through Jabra because you will not hear back from them.

Great ear buds ... until they crash
Love the fit and sound quality of the ear buds ... until they crash. Seems to be related to app upgrades. They seem to cause one bud to fade out entirely. Helps if you disable HR monitor, but not a complete solution. Wish they could make an app worthy of the hardware.
App is impressive but needs work
First time user but i had some weird app issues. For one thing it assumed my running goal was 99999 miles, and kept updating me on the distance i needed to traveled every .25 miles or so (this was at first confusing, then annoying and finally hilarious) in the end it believes i ran 59879.01 miles, which is definitely a PR. Im no rocket scientist... but it seems like a gps issue.

Doesn’t work with Jabra elite75T
Not sure why they don’t work with the elite75T.... soo upsetting
App/headphones don’t connect to new phone
Finally upgraded from an iPhone 6 to an 11, and these pricey headphones don’t connect. Idk if it’s not used to something that’s not my old phone or what but I did what I used to hundreds of times before and nothing. Followed the app instructions precisely, nothing. The app itself is lame, for the Elite Sports the buttons aren’t easily distinguishable until you use it for a while (they’re both circles, why?) and unless the ear bud is drilled into your ear canal they move around if you fidget with the buttons. On their own they used to be good if not great headphones to work out with, now they’re completely unusable. Thanks for making me blow money on a new set of workout ear buds Jabra

No Apple Integration?
In this day and age not being able to have this sync with Apple Health is crazy. Earbuds are ok and app is good but not syncing to Apple Health is a deal breaker. Stuck with this pair / several years old now but will switch to Apple Air Pod Pro shortly. I actually like Jabra’s hardware better but the lack of App integration is a deal breaker.

It’s ok
It’s ok, would be nice to have options for elliptical and other CV work.
Can’t seem to connect to Apple health or aps such as my fitness pal which is fairly straight forward with other aps
