When you finish a ride, sync it to Apple Health! - WORKS WITH POPULAR SENSOR Wahoo, Moofit, Garmin, Magene, you name it, My Cadence is ready for your cadence sensor. It even works with certain fitness bikes like the Schwinn IC4! Sensors that broadcast the "Speed & Cadence" profile are compatible. You may not see a reading on Cycle Power crank arms or bikes that have built in custom sensors. We are continuously adding support for new sensors. If you are having issues, please send us an email at refractoredllc@gmail.com - DATA NEVER LEAVES DEVICE We do NOT use any analytics software at all. In fact, this application doesn't need internet access at all to work. Your cadence data stays local only while connected to your device.

About

NoraPocket

Features
Read full description

Your records can do more than sit in a log. NoraPocket brings your separate records together. Ask the AI advisor Nora for observations and a next step across training, sleep, meals, and weight—perspectives that are harder to see in a single-purpose app. Add records by taking a photo, attaching a file, or writing: - Upload a photo, PDF, or file and AI structures the contents. - Enter information manually and AI organizes the fields. - AI generates templates automatically. Choose or create the format you need. Ask Nora about records you have added, and Nora answers across them (for example, “What might be related to my stalled bench press?”). Set up a Skill to receive periodic observations from its results. You can choose health data to import read-only from Apple Health (HealthKit) and save it as aggregated daily values. Select only the additional data types you need in Settings. You do not have to replace the records you already keep. Bring records from other apps into NoraPocket by taking a photo, attaching a file, or writing, then ask Nora for a broader view. The same goes for household finances and work. Turn your logs into information you can use to decide what to do next. AI features require your consent. The initial consent screen lists the third-party AI providers that receive data (Anthropic, OpenAI, Google, xAI, and Groq) and web search, and you allow them with a single consent. Record-aware web search and health data are asked about separately. You can turn AI processing on or off at any time in Settings.
