### 1/5 — Go with a Different App

*2026-08-24, version 6.90.0*

I’d stay as far away from Wahoo Fitness and their devices.  I downloaded the App to pair with the Core KICKR, but regret both downloading it and purchasing the KICKR. 

Their own literature indicates that the Bluetooth transceiver is too weak to be effective, so the app doesn’t accurately control the device. In fact, the app will not get the device to function outside of passive mode making it worthless.

### 1/5 — Poor resistance upkeep

*2026-08-23, version 6.90.0*

It is very difficult to update the app and maintain a consistent use of the resistance features. Most times when updates are needed, resistance is completely loss.

### 5/5 — Rollentraining

*2026-08-22*

Informativ, gut zu sehen, sehr hilfreich

### 5/5 — Super appli

*2026-08-20, version 6.90.0*

Fonctionne toujours très bien,  suivi précis.  Un must à vélo

### 2/5 — Treinos personalizado

*2026-08-19*

Eu entendi que esse app eu poderia montar meus tempos de corrida mas dá um erro quando seleciono esse opção, isso é um bug ???

### 5/5 — New user

*2026-08-18, version 6.90.0*

Trying to learn how this works - the info is helpful

### 5/5 — Super rad🤘🏽

*2026-08-14, version 6.90.0*

Works as it should, that’s a rare thing in this day and age 🤘🏽 🚴

### 5/5 — Go-to comprehensive Application for sports

*2026-08-10, version 6.89.0*

I’ve been using the Wahoo app for several years now and use other things like Cateye cyclometer as a backup but Wahoo is my primary. I’ve pretty much switched everything over to Wahoo (hardware and software) and just bought an element bolt three and a radar (which I haven’t tried yet). I swear by Wahoo and highly recommend their products to any athlete of any age.

### 1/5 — Customer Service is terrible

*2026-08-03, version 6.89.0*

They make a great product but wow their customer service is awful.  It’s fine as long as you don’t have a problem.

### 3/5 — Won’t sync with Google health

*2026-08-01, version 6.89.0*

I’ve been using Wahoo for years. I love the app. I love the products. It’s only a three star for now because it does not sync with my main health tracker, which is Google Health a.k.a. Fitbit. It still seems like it’s trying to work with the old Fitbit system, but since Fitbit became Google Health, the Wahoo trading app doesn’t want to sync my data after workouts on the treadmill or indoor bike. This needs to be addressed immediately and once is fixed, I will update my review to five stars.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 7.0.0 — 2026-08-26

Bug fixes and stability improvements

### 6.90.0 — 2026-08-12

NEW PRO/CORE subscription offering: Same features, more choices. Introducing our new subscription offering. PRO gives you access to structured training and personalized recommendations, while CORE gives access to advanced analytics.

### 6.89.0 — 2026-07-28

Train with ventilation zones (Tymewear). Pair your Tymewear sensor and your ELEMNT can now guide your training by breathing rate, a direct measure of effort that responds faster than heart rate. Set your personal ventilation thresholds so your zones match your physiology, watch your current zone as a data field mid-ride, and see time-in-zone afterward on your ELEMNT. Ventilation data is now also written to your FIT file, so you can access it post ride.

Easier membership management. You can now change or upgrade your plan in your Wahoo account portal, with clear pricing shown before you commit.

More accurate GPS tracks (iOS) We've improved our GPS algorithm, so your recorded tracks should hug the road more closely, with fewer dropped points and fewer data spikes.

Bug fixes
- Live Track toggle now stays where you set it.
- Fixed sync errors that could prevent routes from reaching your ELEMNT.
- History screen is more stable and easier on your battery.
