Unreliable connectivity
I spend 10-15 mins daily figuring out what has disconnected from Bluetooth, not having touched anything from the previous day. I have only had this bike for a few weeks. Super frustrating

If you disconnect from bike before stopping the workout session in the app the session is lost
There is a WATTBIKE in the work gym. It has been mostly broken for the last 2 years but finally got repaired. It is regularly set for tall people and after past the “limit” for the bar height, and it creaks and flexes. The control loop for ERGO always has a lag to it, and the thing often shuts down part way through a workout session. Maybe it is user error, but it is frustrating to get it to work consistently.
I got the Atom a few months back. I wasn’t doing cycling training at the time, but I did intend on incorporating it. I like the smooth and dependable increase in resistance with the App and the bike. It is easy to adjust (considering you are provided with the necessary tools to do the adjustment). I am a bigger rider at almost 95kg and the seat is very important to me. My last stationary bike broke the clamp and that was unnerving (but nothing compare to going through the turn at speed on the velodrome and having your seat attitude go south!). Anyway, good job to the makers of Wattbike. Now can you make Me produce power like Sir Chris Hoy…
Interface and design is quite good, however the app tends to disconnect from the bike and lose the workout data. Probably 10 or 15% of the time i have issues with ride data loss. Works better on android. If you have issues really try to avoid switching out of the app while in ride mode.
Really enjoyed using this with my atom. The only struggle is finding/pairing my heart rate monitor, which also sometimes drops in the middle of a ride.
The app has been working great for me. My only complaints are the size of the in-app shifter buttons, which are these tiny triangles inside big boxes. Whenever I try to tap onto the triangles I seem to miss and the gears don’t change. Why can’t the full box simply react on touch input? Switching back and forth between apps has been working fine for me - at least on my iPhone/iPad. When I start a ride and click onto the “play” button I sometimes get my bike ID displayed. Then I have to go back and do the same thing again and it will start.
I have been on hold for over 10 min For the third time in 1 year the app will not allow me to log in I can log in from my computer to the account but not my tablet When I requested new password the app doesn’t accept the temp code that watt bike sent Apparently they have a us and us site and the two do not communicate probably causing the issues Great bike when app works Crappy customer support Crappy interface that loses password every time app or iPad updates
I have had nothing but problem since getting Wattbike and using app. First bike had to be replaced entirely after calling engineer three times. Replacement bike worked briefly then again started glitching with bike not response gear changes. Customer service experience very disappointing log a ticket with 3rd party app and get an email response 3 to 5 days later with no capacity to speak to anyone. A very disappointing experience for a very expensive piece of equipment. Please don’t respond and ask me to end a ticket to Wattbike support.
Reported before the app resets mid training and loose data. App creators has the audacity to ask me to log a call… is it in my interest or theirs to improve the app? I am definitely looking for an alternative!
