BHRide vs Kadenz

Paying hundreds per month just to ride your indoor bike? BHRide is a one-time purchase — no subscriptions, ever. BHRide is a subscription-free indoor cycling companion app. Connect to any BLE fitness machine via the FTMS protocol (such as BH H919S) and track your power, cadence, virtual speed, and distance in real time. Buy once, use forever. No subscription. No ads. No account. No internet needed. KEY FEATURES: ◆ One-Time Purchase, No Subscription, No Ads All features unlocked forever. No monthly fees, annual fees, hidden charges, or ads interrupting your ride. ◆ Real-Time Metrics Live display of power (W), cadence (RPM), virtual speed (km/h), distance, ride time, and calories burned. Virtual speed is calculated from power using physics-based modeling. ◆ Route Simulation 21 built-in loop routes across three terrains — Park, Mountain, and Flat — with distances from 3km to 50km. Each route features warm-up, climbs, recovery sections, and cool-down. Grade automatically controls your bike's resistance (ERG mode) to simulate real outdoor riding. ◆ Route Elevation Map Full route overview + scrollable zoomed view with color-coded gradient strips showing your real-time progress. ◆ Target Power Control Custom power target with slider (0-500W), quick presets, or direct input. Controls your bike's resistance directly via the FTMS protocol. ◆ Health Integration Save completed rides to Apple Health with full per-second power, cadence, and speed data (iOS 17+). ◆ TCX File Export Export rides as standard TCX files via the iOS share sheet. Save them locally or send them to other apps. BHRide itself never uploads any data to any external server. ◆ Bilingual Interface Instant switch between Chinese and English. ◆ Fully Offline, No Data Collection BHRide makes no network connections of any kind. No account required. No analytics, tracking, or uploads. All ride data stays on your device, or is written to Apple Health only with your explicit permission. COMPATIBLE DEVICES: Works with any indoor bike or smart trainer that supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) FTMS protocol, including but not limited to BH Fitness H919S. NOTE: A compatible BLE fitness machine is required for full functionality. Virtual speed and distance are estimates calculated from power output, not actual travel data.

Train with the sensors you already own. Kadenz connects your iPhone directly via Bluetooth to an FTMS-compatible indoor bike and, optionally, to a heart rate chest strap. Power, cadence, speed, distance, and heart rate are displayed clearly in real time during your workout. Once you finish, your workout is saved to the Apple Health app. YOUR LIVE METRICS • Power in watts • Cadence • Speed and distance • Heart rate with five configurable training zones • Most recently saved SpO₂ value from the Health app FLEXIBLE CONNECTIVITY Kadenz supports FTMS-compatible indoor bikes regardless of manufacturer. For heart rate data, the app automatically uses the best available source: a chest strap, Apple Watch, or the bike itself. Even without a connected bike, you can start a free workout and track your heart rate and workout duration. IPHONE AND APPLE WATCH Apple Watch is optional. When used, it can record the workout and measure your heart rate directly. You can pause, resume, and end workouts from both iPhone and Apple Watch. DIRECTLY IN THE HEALTH APP Kadenz saves your indoor cycling workout to the Health app with all available power, cadence, speed, distance, heart rate, and energy data. In Kadenz, you can also view previous workouts, weekly and overall totals, an eight-week trend, and detailed charts. Custom titles and notes are stored only on your iPhone. TRAIN WITHOUT DISTRACTIONS The optional Auto-Pause feature automatically pauses your workout when no cadence is detected for five seconds. As soon as you start pedaling again, the workout resumes immediately. Large, color-coded metrics keep all important data easy to read during training. PRIVACY BY DESIGN No account. No ads. No analytics. No tracking. No Kadenz cloud. Your workout and health data remain on your devices and in the Health app. Kadenz does not measure SpO₂ itself and is not a medical device. REQUIREMENTS • iOS 17 or later • An FTMS-compatible Bluetooth indoor bike is required for bike metrics • Apple Watch and a heart rate chest strap are optional • Not all bikes provide every metric
