Looks nice, not intuitive
Loaded it up, paired with stages meter on spin bike. Multiple steps required to start tracking a workout and not intuitive. App turned off mid ride and then couldn’t locate any history anywhere. Frustratingly unclear. I gave up and deleted the app after multiple failed attempts to track a spin class.

Broken
completely Natalie broken. New updated version requires you to accept terms and conditions by scrolling through them - but scrolling through the terms and conditions causes the app to crash.
Poor device connection
I want to praise this app for what it does, however the device connectivity is bafflingly poor. For example I can connect my phone to a stages studio bike via Bluetooth, but the app will fail to connect to the same bike. The same is true with my heart rate monitor: connected to my phone via Bluetooth, but the in app connection fails. I don’t want to disconnect and re-pair my devices every time I go for a workout, with no guarantee that it will even resolve the problem.

Doesn't see working devices
This app doesn't see devices that are seen by the StagesPower app (the one to update firmware)
From 3 to 4 stars down to one
One year later and several updates later analytics are still not available. It is really sad to see how the functionality dropped. That Today’s plan (the underlying platform for Stages Link) went bust is one thing. What Stages made out of this opportunity rather disappointing. Analytics are not accessible. Support is not available anymore. No structured pre defined rides available anymore, no library. The best alternative for Garmin has just gone. No connection with Polar.
