Update the App, lose Support
Since we bought our stationary bike I have recorded hundreds of workouts, 8 miles per workout, twice a day, virtually every day for over a year. After the App update today, none of that data is available and recording the next workout like I have for over a year, is no longer possible. Your App looks like your target audience is between eight to ten years of age. There’s no service for me in this app. SR

High Praise but …
As a long time user of a Spirit XBU55 stationary bike, I have lots of praise for the new version of the Spirit+ app. It is a huge improvement with its attractive new interface and greatly enhanced data graphing capabilities.
On the other hand I must register my disappointment that one glaring bug in the previous versions has not been fixed - its compatibility with earlier Spirit equipment with older firmware. Fortunately, the new app IS mostly compatible with my older XBU55 and I will continue to use it happily. But I will do so knowing that the app shows my RPMs as exactly half of the actual value and shows distance (and speed) values that are off by a factor of something close to 1.6 (which sounds like a simple kilometer to miles conversion error). This problem could be cured rather easily in the app through any of several programmatic fixes.
I'll note one extra feature that I would love to see. The ability to delete more than one workout at a time from the phone's memory. The ability to delete workouts based on a date range would also be wonderful.
My critique is NOT a deal breaker. I repeat my high praise for the new version 4.x of the Spirit+ app.

Doesn’t work
After an app update this won’t connect to my XBR95. It doesn’t detect the bike anymore on my app or my wife’s. For the price of this bike it’s very upsetting.
Thank you
For updating and making my last 2 weeks worth of workouts vanish and not save any of my recent workouts too.
Now I can finally say goodbye to this garbage app that works 1/3 of the time. As if I only want to capture 1/3 of my life.

Terrible at everything
Instructors are terrible, boring. Connection should capture full work instead of partial and it lost my profile.
