Pro Tips
- If heart rate data displays irregular or inconsistent numbers, strap contacts may not be properly seated or device may have a low battery. Contact device manufacturer for more information on specific troubleshooting steps.
- Having trouble recognizing a device? Ensure that Bluetooth is enabled in your phone settings.
- It can take up to 20 seconds for a device to start displaying data in the app.
- Devices will only need to be paired once. Simply begin recording after initially pairing and devices will be automatically recognized, as long as they're on and within reach of your phone.
- If your speed seems abnormally high or low, check your wheel circumference setting to ensure it's accurate.
- If you're using Bluetooth audio devices on your ride, make sure these are connected via your phone's settings, and not directly in the app.
