Just stopped working
Great device (in concept). Nice big display on the iPhone which is helpful when working out in the gym . Works with a range of app s and worked well for about a month and then just stopped connecting. I have reloaded all the apps, reset bluetooth, tried the fix suggested by the manufacturer and none of these have worked. …

Works great till it packs up totally.
Worked great for 3 months until it just stopped working. Changed batteries tried connecting to a number of iPhones all with no luc k. Works great when it 'works' but presume the transmitter just breaks. Even tried the Wahoo Utility and that can't find it. AVOID!
Going back to Polar. …- Written by ANTHONY A from birmingham

Works well but mine packed up after 4 months
This works great for the 4S and is compatible with plenty of apps. You can also use it with some app running on the iPad 3 gen wh ich is great if you are exercising at home and want a nice big display showing your heart rate (I use walkmeter 7 for this)
However my unit just stopped working while out on a bike ride and even though I have changed the batteries I can't connect to any of my devices. The problem is there is no indication at all on the strap if it is working at all, so you are left trying to get the apps (and the Wahoo utility) to try an connect.
Hopefully it will be replaced quickly by the supplier (in my case Amazon) …- Written by Ian B from Kings Hill

Great but maybe the quality it not up to scratch
Purchased end of Oct 2012 and used it with my Cyclemeter App connected and setup in minutes and all was working fine very pleased but then as you will read with other reviews the HRM stopped working Feb 2013 approx 3 months of use, tried a few things eg replaced battery etc but no joy. Took it back to Apple Store replaced without any fuss impressed with the service from Apple. I hope the replacement will be more reliable and longer lasting. …

Brilliant - Great with Strava
I bought this and Wahoo Fitness's Bluetooth Speed and Cadence sensor 'Blue SC'. Together they allow me to collect all the data I n eed when cycling and running. The Wahoo app is really well designed and can upload a completed session to loads of fitness apps. I have just opted for Strava and Dropbox. Dropbox can receive about 8 different file types, I have settled for GPX, CSV and Wahoo's own file format. The quality of the hardware is comparable to my backup Sunnto T3c.
So far the device is working as expected, I have not had any of the other problems described here... I will be sure to report any problems should they occur. …- Written by Brodie B from Selby

Does this device work with Runtastic Pro to provide heart rate info?
- Asked by Stephen M from Berwyn
- 17-Mar-2013
Answer
Yes. I bought this today after looking thru the compatibility on the manufacturer's website. I hav e been using Runtastic Pro for three months and every week I use this App to track my running habit. This Blue HR strap works well. Keep in mind that switching on the Bluetooth on your iPhone might not discover its presence. It is not until you wear it on and batch your App will you find the reading showing around the red heart icon. Enjoy! …
