Best Cycling stats app I have ever used
I’ve gone through a lot of apps over the years...this one is by far the best one I’ve ever used. All the information I want is there. The customizable interface is amazing.

Love it
Large, customizable screen is easy to view at a glance. Automatically syncs with Strava. Tracks more data than I need for the riding I do. Support quickly responded to questions I had. All in all I’m very pleased with the App and the service backing it up!

An incredible app
I just saved myself buying a cycling computer. There’s no need, I’ve been using this app on airplane mode, with my cadence and speed sensors connected over Bluetooth, and it works like a charm.

Best in class
After hundreds of cycling apps tried, this one is so far the best one I ever had. Easy to use, very customizable and clear layout, easy to add sensors.
