Brilliant offering so many opportunities

Very annoying indeed

I have been using this app for many many years and it was perfect in every way until Garmin took over. What a disaster. Why have they tried to fix something that was absolutely fine? I’ve updated this app several times this year and it gets worse and worse at every update. Yesterday’s update was appalling! These three stupid three dots appeared recently that you had to press to stop your session which is stupid as the earlier app had a stop button on the screen you were looking at - perfect but now I have to fiddle with these tiny dots but go going back to yesterday’s update these three dots now open a settings screen and I have no clue how to stop a session I mean how stupid is that! I’m really annoyed by these recent changes. How can I get the version from six months ago that was perfect! If the developer actually used the app perhaps they would see how dreadful their changes have made this app. My only solace is that as I’m old I’ll be dead soon and will no longer be frustrated by this. Yes I know this is a first world problem but it’s so unnecessary. I also notice the same response to every review so obviously nobody is reading any bad reviews because it’s obvious that many people are unhappy and yet every update is worse than before. Why am I even spending time doing this?

Power training manual mode

Even though I do not have a smart turbo trainer and rely on a speed and cadence sensor, it works great for those that are happy to create their own plans. Simply to connect and gathers enough data including heart rate to monitor training progress

The updates SUCK

The updates make this app very difficult to use - the font is VERY small (a lot of unused screen space) and it’s difficult to exit your workout (need one button to press V’s a drop down option. Do they actually use this, how can they not see these issues.

Ellipsis too close to training settings

When using an iPhone, It is very, very difficult to stop the session without touching the training settings.
