Kinomap: Ride Run Row Indoor

The core feature of Kinomap is fantastic! However, the app itself suffers from major usability issues, combined with a troubling software quality. For instance, it took me forever to find out how I can create a playlist. Turns out this is not possible in my profile where all my playlists supposedly show up. No, I have to pick a video, open the context menu, add to playlist and then create a new playlist. But the issues do not stop there. For some strange reason, any new playlist takes minutes (!) to actually show up. Presumably some backend problem. But c’mon! This is 2024 and should be immediate! I still haven’t figured out how to delete a playlist or how to find videos that I have previously bookmarked. Also, video playback froze for me at 1/3 the distance the other day. I am on a 250 Mbps Internet connection. This should categorically never happen under my conditions. I will keep on trialling the app during the free trial period. But as things stand, I will not upgrade to a paid subscription. Some serious work needs to be put into the app. Kinomap, hire some UX experts and QA engineers to fix your app.

I really wanted to love that app. Great concept. But it is not working properly and feels like an alpha version. Charging for something like that is not right.

Really good routes many different types of exercises

For anyone wanting to upload to Strava or an app to measure progress/kilometres… avoid kinomap like the plague - they CONSTANTLY have issues with the fit files and the automatic download never works. Support just say every few weeks ‘oh sorry the upload function is down, sorry’ but never properly fix it and you’ll have the same issue. Genuinely the worst app by a mile

This app is outrageously expensive for both monthly or annual subscriptions! Don’t purchase a rower that needs this app to record functions. A great customer focussed update would be to make the ‘free workout’ program free.

I’m using an indoor bike while coming back from injury and have found this app perfect to help get me back to fitness. Love the extensive videos available and have had no problems with it working. It connected well with the indoor bike I have and gives great feedback and resistance through the bike!

Use this on a regular basis, love the selection of rides, never had any problems with connection.

And not worth a cracker

Everything about this app is bad. It won’t pick up your devices. Trainer yes but HR & Cadence no. Try to select a ride, I almost fell asleep waiting. Once a ride selection actually appears you will die of old age waiting for it to open. Once it opens try to ride, nothing it does a big fat 0. Nada. Start nothing. Pedal nothing you can see your wattage but nothing no motion no speed only watts and time. Try another 2 rides I died waiting one just did nothing only a motionless picture of the countryside. The other one just didn’t download. Wasted the best part of 2 hours of my life for nothing. Actually it cost me a subscription to get nothing. I’ve tried 3 of these Euro cycling apps none work as well as Zwift even though I hate to say it. There is just something not right with these Euro apps. Total waste of my time and money. Extremely disappointed I want my money back. Never again.

New to this App but it’s really taken the boredom out of Ergo training! Look forward to using this regularly. Would really recommend this App for anyone doing indoor training.
