Updated app and icon are terrible

Such cheesy design that I just deleted it

Connectivity

Just downloaded the new version of this app for my Giant Momentum and wish I never did. Didn’t think an app could get worse but it did by a lot. Not only is there useless stuff that appears on the home/start page but now it has made my controller on the bike locked out and unresponsive. Have to disconnect the battery from the bike to get controller on the bike to work. If the old app is still working for you do not download this one.

Nouvelle version non fonctionnelle

Après la mise a jour, je dois enregistrer de nouveau mes deux vélos, l’interface n’est pas fonctionnelle, pourquoi ne pas avoir gardé ça simple ?

Disappointed

Don’t like the layout. Needs a light screen for people with bad eye sight. GPS mapping jumps all over the place. How do I go the the old version?

Rubbish update

App updated a few days ago and now had my first ride. Speed, time, distance is now so small it’s difficult to see when riding. Also when changing power levels, this no longer appears. Can’t see how I fine tune power settings. Home Screen has news etc that is of no use to most. There was nothing wrong with the previous version. I have a 2022 Fathom. App does not represent any of the screens in manual. At a complete loss as to how I can access the facilities on the App.Not impressed
