Total disregard for age

Cherie w

I purchased the app and sensor to get accurate information while exercising. Also for guidance as to what my heart rate should be. It says that at age 71 my heart rate max should be 245 ?. My easy is topped out at 120 my fat burn does not begin until 130. Hello! Something is off


Latest update is bad

k b .

When using my cadence monitor, it no longer correctly measures my RPMs. One minute I’ll be at 95 RPMs (which is accurate), and then the next it will say I am at 32, which is definitely not correct. App worked better before this latest update. Please fix.


Speed and distance not consistent

Viewer4198

Back on May 15 I got an e-mail from tech support that the developers were working on a fix to the way Wahoo Fitness records bicycle distance. I still get variations of plus or minus .4 to .5 miles on a 13.5 mile course. The end distance shown on the current screen at the end of the ride does not match the distance recorded in the summary. I’ve tried adjusting wheel circumference. With the inconsistency I could not get the app to record distance that was close to my known course distance. The app responded counter intuitively. Increasing wheel circumference decreased distance measured and vise versa. I set the app to use GPS for speed and distance. Still the same inconsistency. Before the April 2019 update, the distance measurements were consistent and close to the known course distance. Something happened in April and I am getting restless for an effective update. Six weeks should be enough time to resurrect the old code and patch it back in the app.


Gets the bare minimum right

Gets the bare minimum right. Flaws are trouble recognizing non-Wahoo sensors, lagging GPS pace, elevation has been off anywhere from 2-10X (upload to other apps and they correct this).


No longer a fan

I have used the wahoo tickr to track my running for awhile and had no issues. It was very accurate in tracking all my runs, unfortunately I updated the wahoo app. recently and all I have are issues now. The app will randomly pause my runs multiple times throughout my workouts and it has become more and more frustrating.


Glitchy

kcinspb

I was satisfied at first with the heart rate monitor and app because I knew I bought the cheapest possible. But lately the GPS function had been glitchy forany workouts- giving me crazy lines over the globe and then of course all the data is inaccurate. I could put up with that if I could see the time spent each heart rate zone. But on my last workout there is data missing there--About 15 minutes discrepancy between the total time and the sum of time in the zones. I was looking as I ran, since I was runninhintervals in certain heart rate zones, but I'd love an accurate summary, too.


Inconsistent

lo george

I’ve had rides that don’t connect to gps and other rides that show different miles from the dashboard to when you open the history. This needs to get fixed


Good data, would like more customization controls

_LA_Lesly_

I found the heart rate zones data very useful in previous versions. The changing color background was easy to see. Now that data is in a much smaller box without the color changes. Just make the info boxes modular. Let me arrange which feeds to watch and how to arrange/resize them. please thnks.

I’ve used other gps in other sports they did ok. Wahoo has stepped up and modernize the game without making it look and feel like a game. Hats off for that. The only irregularities I see with GPS is one I’ve seen even in the service and basecamp units. Civilian GPS units are not as precise as thousand dollar units. Basically if you have a 25 foot proximity value in your GPS reading you can be anywhere within the proximity. Another important bite is, GPS needs three satellites to start calculating where you’re at at any given moment. When one of those satellites change the information changes just enough that you may think your gps device is acting up or broken. ITS NOT IT’S THE GPS system and fact “it’s Way better than it was 10 years ago” I feel for my investment in Wahoo Devices to take cycling with me that they are the best. The service and support that’s been is top notch. Thanks Wahoo


Used to work

It takes 3 minutes of hard work on a bike for one calorie now. Something broke in the last release.
