Best Answerno, I tried playing volleyball with the sensor in my shoe and it didn't record anything with the ipod touch on the sidelines. It has to be pretty close by to sense the sensor.

With IPhone 4 do I need to buy anything to use Nike+ app
I don't understand. The app is already built in but I can't activate the sensor. I already turned the thing on but ive walked around a lot without any result. Is there something additional I need to buy?

Can you get the same nike+ website/workout tracking on the 5G nano without the adapter (white piece)?
Seems that many people have asked this question or at least a similar one but I've seen three answers; yes, no and perhaps.
I have a 4G nano now and thus must use both the adapter (the white thing that plugs in to your ipod) and the sensor (the one that goes in your shoe). I know you need the sensor regardless of which ipod you have. My question is twofold.
First, with the 5G nano, do I need to use the adapter to get my workouts recorded using the nike+ software or can the nano "talk" directly to the sensor? (Not looking for just the pedometer.)
Second, if I don't need the adapter, is the nike+ website tracking and all of that stuff the same as with the adapter. In other words, I like using the nike+ software and like the fact that it will track my workouts over time and that I can set goals so I want to keep that aspect of the training tool. Basically, if the "perhaps" answer to this question that I saw means that you don't get the full use of the software side of things without the adapter then I'll continue to use it.- Asked by Jennfer S from Dartmouth

IS THERE A NIKE WORKOUT FOR THE IPOD CLASSIC?

AnswerIf your looking for an alternative Nike make a band that has the same functions to track your runs. Go to niketown.com and search nike plus products. the band comes with a nike plus sensor so you don't have to buy it separate. Got it a few weeks ago and i love it. All you need is a computer with the internet and a usb port on it and you get the same thing as having it on a ipod.

Can I wear the sensor through airport security?
- Asked by Jennifer F from Harris
- Mar 5, 2011
- Flag as inappropriate
AnswerNow that we have to take our shoes off at airport security, I would say it's probably better to take it out. Your shoes are going to be x-rayed and you probably don't want to have to try to explain why you're hiding something under the sole.

Does the sensor stream live results to the iPhone 4 or can results only be viewed at the end of a run?
My iPhone is strapped to my forearm with an armband. I want to know if I can view my progress by glancing at it or would I have to wait until I've finished?
