Echo Bike Connect turns your Rogue Echo Bike into a smart trainer. Pair over Bluetooth and see six real-time metrics on your iPhone: power (watts), cadence (RPM), speed, distance, calories, and heart rate. Stream live heart rate from the companion Apple Watch app, start Watch heart-rate streaming from iPhone, or pair a Bluetooth chest strap (Polar, Wahoo, Garmin, Coospo, etc.) directly to the app. Every second of every ride is recorded automatically — no account required and no cloud dependency. Connecting, free rides, and History stay free. Echo Bike Pro is optional and unlocks structured workouts, the Echo Baseline, live interval targets, and ride analytics. Getting started is simple: open the app, tap Scan, and connect to your Echo Bike. For heart rate, tap Connect on the Apple Watch card or start Echo Bike on Apple Watch, then begin your ride. Bluetooth heart-rate straps are still supported from the same Connect screen. Start a workout and your live metrics appear instantly. Use splits to track intervals. When you're done, review detailed charts for power, cadence, and heart rate over time. Subscribe to Echo Bike Pro from the Pro tab to load Tabata, Norwegian 4×4, Zone 2, and more, or build and save custom workouts with named steps, repeats, and optional heart-rate and power zone targets. Remaining interval time is the large clock on the Workout screen while Echo records every second. Workout stats start compact so they fit on iPhone; tap the density control to enlarge the HUD, timer, and cards. Run the 8-minute Echo Baseline to set heart-rate and power zones, then check Analytics to see whether you are improving. Upload completed workouts to Strava or Intervals.icu with a single tap — full trackpoint data including power, cadence, and heart rate is included. After a successful Strava upload, tap View in Strava from History to open the ride. If a Strava copy is wrong, delete that Echo Bike activity on Strava, then re-upload from History. Indoor rides are marked as trainer / virtual rides. Cast your live workout to a TV via Chromecast so you can see your stats from across the room, or use AirPlay to mirror to an Apple TV or external display. All workout data stays on your device. Nothing is sent to any server unless you choose to upload to Strava or Intervals.icu. The app is free to ride and supported by ads. Purchase Remove Ads for a one-time fee to hide ads permanently. Echo Bike Pro is a separate monthly subscription (1 month free, then $3.99/mo) for workouts and analytics; Remove Ads does not grant Pro. Echo Bike Connect is an independent project and is not affiliated with Rogue Fitness.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: RunGap at none against Echo Bike's shown. RunGap also leads on ratings volume (5.9K vs 2) and iOS requirement (16 vs 18.0). Echo Bike's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.8) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. RunGap sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 3 months and Echo Bike sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Echo Bike holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RunGap has 5.9K ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two.
RunGap ships an update every 2 weeks, Echo Bike every 5 days. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
