Ratings and Reviews
Creates a .fit file and nothing else
The only way I can get it to connect consistently to my True PS300 is to hit the Bluetooth button on the treadmill and wait for the four digit number, then open the app. Opening the app before hitting the treadmill button results in never connecting.
App does not sync with Strava. You have to manually save the .fit file and then use the web version of Strava to upload the file.
If you do a heart rate controlled workout on the True, the .fit file will include the warmup time and miles but not the speed or heart rate data. The result is you run at 60 mph for the warm up portion after you upload to Strava. Heart rate is also a straight linear line from beginning until you begin the HRC portion.
The pace shown according to Strava verbs by about 30 seconds per mile at a constant speed. The average shown is correct but the variation per second is not consistent even when you are running at a constant speed.
Elevation data doesn’t show. I am not sure if this is the app or the treadmill though.
When I users Zwift with the treadmill, that app connected immediately and the data doesn’t have the variability and records the whole run including elevation.
About all this app is good for is saving your time and miles. That is after you get it to connect.
Can’t connect most of the time
My gym recommended using this app with their cardio equipment and most of the time it just says “No machines nearby” even when I hit the Bluetooth button on the machines to pair. Yesterday it popped up 3 nearby machines but showed no data when I paired to any of them. Then I restarted the app and it showed nothing nearby. I got it to work one time with a stationary bike and the data was great to correct some of my data recorded in my garmin app that was incorrect like distance. It would be a better app if it worked 100% of the time and also exported to other apps.
Disappointed
Works well enough by itself. But if it integrates with the Health app, the instructions on how to do this are nonexistent or very well hidden. Until that’s fixed, I’ll just put my iPhone back in my pocket and let the Health app figure out steps and distance.
