About

Kinoment

Features
Read full description

Kinoment shows live metrics from your Bluetooth fitness machine and saves your workouts to Apple Health and Fitness. See power, cadence, speed, distance, pace or calories depending on what your bike, treadmill, rower or elliptical trainer sends. On Apple Watch, Kinoment adds your heart rate to the workout. If the machine provides heart rate too, you choose the source. The app works on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch with no Kinoment account. Data stays on your devices and in Apple Health. A shareable diagnostic helps us investigate unsupported machines without including workout metrics. Live metrics from your machine are free, with no limit. Your first ten workouts are also added to Health and Fitness. After that, a one-time purchase with no subscription adds every workout to Health and Fitness and unlocks complete history with CSV export. Compatibility depends on the Bluetooth data sent by each machine. Tested devices and support are available at kinoment.com.

Read full description

Ergreg is an independent project, not affiliated with Concept2, Inc. A Bluetooth PM5 monitor is required to connect to the ergometer; without one, Demo mode shows the whole app. Ergreg shows live data from your Concept2 ergometer (SkiErg, RowErg, Model D/E, BikeErg) connected over Bluetooth to the PM5 monitor, and uploads your workouts to your Concept2 Logbook. RELIABLE BLUETOOTH CONNECTION β€’ Automatically resumes the last monitor, no chooser needed. β€’ Automatic reconnection for 3 minutes if the link drops: the workout goes on. β€’ Built-in troubleshooting help. LIVE DATA β€’ Time, distance, pace /500 m, power, stroke rate, heart rate, calories, strokes, drag factor, projection, speed, remaining… β€’ Five swipeable screens: all data, essentials, intervals at the step you choose, a screen you compose yourself, charts. Every tile can be changed, removed or added, large or small. β€’ Beep when the heart-rate zone changes, automatic PM5 disconnection after inactivity (adjustable). β€’ Full-width charts for pace, power, stroke rate and heart rate. β€’ Full screen, screen kept on during the workout. HEART RATE ZONES β€’ 7 zones derived from your maximum heart rate, adjustable thresholds. β€’ The HR tile takes the colour of the current zone, time in each zone, coloured bands on the chart. β€’ Display in bpm, % of max HR, or both. PLANNED WORKOUTS β€’ Intervals: warm-up, repeated distance intervals with rest, cool-down, on-screen guidance with sound cues. β€’ Race against a ghost: distance and target time, on-screen track with both positions and the gap. β€’ Workouts saved and shareable. CONCEPT2 LOGBOOK (OPTIONAL) β€’ Secure sign-in to your Concept2 account (OAuth2). β€’ Sync of every workout, resumes after network loss, checks for workouts already in the Logbook to avoid duplicates. β€’ Splits and stroke-by-stroke data uploaded. AUTOMATIC SAVING β€’ Every workout is saved during the effort: nothing is lost, even if the app closes. β€’ History on the device, CSV and TCX export. Available in 47 languages. No account to create, no ads, no subscription, no tracking.
