Selfloops Spark

Downloaded the app on my Apple Watch to sync it with my Concept 2 rowing machine. But the support is really buggy. It only registers one training interval more than one are not captured by the Watch. And if you press menu on the erg before you end the workout on the watch, it doesn‘t get saved at all. Nice try but that way I cant recommend it

Connected to my Concept2 ERG, recorded all data, and synced with Apple Health on the first attempt. Using Apple Watch Series 7. Awesome!

Bad app. Can’t keep connection, lose data

It will not sync for longer than 45 mins for a group workout session. It will end the session and then start a new session. It will track the new session on my watch & phone but now on the workout screen at the gym so I cannot easily very my HR

Missing without because even thought it says it’s connected to the rower it doesn’t record the workout. Had one where it recorded a partial workout.

UPDATE Mar.22.2020 Watch stopped syncing after about 2 Weeks of using the app! WISHLIST - Mar.07.2020 The trial version does not allow syncing with third party apps - so I have no idea how this functionality works (for concept2 dashboard). It would be nice to give it a full testrun before deciding which app to purchase (as I am assessing several). That said, the reporting and presentation of stats after a rowing session are very good. UPDATE SelfLoops support very responsive - and the issue I originally reported was resolved in a few days. Feb 2020 : BUG - when iPhone set to dark mode - there is still a white background with white text. So you cannot read the text. However, this is better attempt than concept2 at integrating the Apple watch with the world's most popular rowing machine.

I love it!!! I just walk in to my gym and tap the spark icon on my apple watch and my name is up on the heart rate monitor for my workout! And it fills in my rings cause I am a freak about closing them!!

Selfloops is outstanding! Spark is the only app that lets you connect your Apple Watch as a heart rate monitor for group fitness classes on the big screen, and uploads all your workouts to the Selfloops dashboard for analysis. I have trained for 50k paddle board and trail running races with Selfloops as well as all my day-to-day fitness over the last 4 years and adding Apple Watch support was a great (and convenient) addition!

Paid for premium to connect to my Concept2 rower and it says its connecting but it doesn’t transfer any of the data over. Completely useless! Updated 1st March 2020: Stand by the fact that the app didn’t work even when paying for premium. Developer did send refund after brief email back and forth discussing the issues.

I have downloaded this app many times. Unfortunately I have yet to get it to work on my watch. Customer service has been trying to help but all through email. I would like to talk to someone on the phone that can lead me to fixing this problem.
