Description
Treadmill Smart Speed is design to communicate your Treadmill Running Speed from you iPhone or Watch to a receiving devices. It used the same Bluetooth communications protocols as expensive running footpods.
You choose your preferred Speed Input:
1 - Select the speed your treadmill is moving on the app and this is transmitted via bluetooth to your receiver. (This is my personal recommendation)
2 - Attach the iPhone security to yourself and run. The iPhone's motion sensor will estimate your speed and transmit this to your bluetooth receiver.
****** iPhone 5S and above. ***** (fully dependant on accuracy of iPhone)
*****THIS OPTION WILL BE DISCONTINUED IN FUTURE VERSIONS, PLEASE RELY ON TREADMILL MODE OR WATCH MODE
3 - Use your phone in combination with your Apple Watch. The Watch will send Speed, Cadence and Heart Rate via your phone and transmit these to your bluetooth receiver. (Watch workouts can be saved as part of your daily activity rings) (fully dependant on accuracy of Watch)
*New Feature :you can control the speed manually using the crown, simply tap the digital speed to enable/disable.
Notes:
• TSS Watch Module - requires an Apple Watch to calculate Heart Rate, Cadence and Speed data.
• TSS Watch Module integrates with the Health App on your iPhone to contribute to your Activity Rings. It will request permission to access the relevant data types associated with a workout.
*Connection to MAC Requires BLE 4.0 -
The Mac mini , MacBook Air were both updated with Bluetooth 4.0 support in 2011.
The MacBook Pro Mac 2012.
The Mac Pro in December 2013.

Ratings and Reviews
Does not transfer right speee
I set a speed of 2 in the app but my avatar in game shows 1.5. I’ve tried switching between imperial and metric but even when app and game both are set to miles the speeds are way off.
It Worked Great for me!
For $5 I’m now able to walk on Zwift!
Do to mobility issues I find it very difficult to walk over 1 mph. This means normal trackers have not worked for me on Zwift. By being able to manually control to speed information transmited to Zwift I was able to get my avatar to slowly move around Watopia. This is huge for me. Thank you.
If you have similar issues getting onto Zwift I highly recommend giving this a try.
Doesn’t do what I want
I was hoping the app would allow me to send the correct pace from the treadmill to Workout rather than relying on the terrible gyro guestimator that Workout uses by default. This app doesn’t do that. Rather it lets you use your phone to display the bad pace data from the watch as though that would somehow be more helpful than the display on the treadmill. I guess if you had a treadmill with absolutely no display, it might be better than nothing. I have nothing to say about the broadcast to zwift functionality as I didn’t use that.
