To broadcast heart rate over Bluetooth from your Galaxy or WearOS watch, you’ll need to use an app like Heart for Bluetooth or HR2VP Watch Bike Computer I’ve had several users successfully get things working, but I think those apps can be a little buggy and require that you have the settings just right, i.e. […]
When using your Favero Assioma Power Meter Pedals with Cadence, in the Assioma app, be sure to select “Unified channel L”, and if using the UNO model, turn on the option for “Double the power”.
Cadence only supports Bluetooth sensor data (not ANT+), and unfortunately neither SRAM eTap AXS or Shimano Di2 sends gear data or allows shifter buttons to switch screens over Bluetooth. In fact, Shimano Di2 doesn’t send that data over standard ANT+, but their own proprietary Private ANT protocol. SRAM eTap AXS doesn’t send gear data over […]
Not yet, unfortunately. Both the Magene L508 or Bryton Gardia R300L radars only work with their own apps and don’t broadcast radar data over Bluetooth for other smartphone apps to use. Please see below for the latest updates. April 10, 2023: The Magene L508 now supports showing radar data in the Magene Utility app. Unfortunately, […]

The Fitbit Charge 6 supports broadcasting heart rate over Bluetooth, see details on Fitbit’s website. Unfortunately previous Fitbit devices don’t broadcast heart rate data over Bluetooth, so there’s no way for third party apps to connect to them. Some watch style heart rate monitors that do work are Apple Watch, Xiaomi Mi Smart Band, Garmin […]
No, Cadence doesn’t support ANT+ sensors, but nearly all running and cycling Bluetooth Smart (BLE) sensors are supported.
Any standard Bluetooth Smart (BLE) heart rate, speed, cadence, power, and trainer / indoor bike sensor should work just fine with Cadence. While all standard Bluetooth Smart sensors should be compatible, below are sensors that have been confirmed by users to work with Cadence: Heart Rate Monitors Speed and Cadence Sensors Power Meters Radar Sensors […]
Connect your Garmin Varia just like you would any other Bluetooth BLE sensor! Cadence is compatible with the Garmin Varia Radar‘s that supports Bluetooth Smart (BLE), which includes the RTL515, RVR315, RCT715, and eRTL615 radar sensors. When paired you will receive both visual and audio alerts on your phone warning you of approaching vehicles.

If you’ve followed the steps below and are still having trouble, please […]
