Very poor

Poor app for the price of the bike, slow, glitchy, gives info one time and next time maybe not, wife’s Bosch Flo app is ten times better than this app

Used to work!!

This app had worked great for the past 5 years. Now it connects to my bike but won’t check for updates or register speed, distance, etc. The app sucks now!

Not reliable

App frequently fails to save completed rides and shows an error at the end. Losing all ride and route data after finishing a ride is frustrating, please fix the reliability issue

OK if you never ride of mobile data range

This is an example of an app which has a completely needless requirement for you to create an account and login so you can access your local property that you have just paid a large amount of money for. If when you launch the app it cannot connect to the servers. It complains that connectivity tells you your login has expired and demands that you login. This is of course utterly impossible if you are mountain biking anywhere exciting where mobile phones have no connectivity. This completely fails to understand mounted biking and the needs of their customers.
