SmartRow

Ergometer Innovations B.V.

About this app

The SmartRow App (together with the SmartRow-conversion) will turn your WaterRower into a lab grade ergometer. It will not only show you power, distance, work-per-stroke, calories etc., it will show you each force-curve, heart rate graph and much, much more! It keeps track of your workouts, and even shows you well-known fitness metrics like 'Watts-per-Beat' and 'Watts-per-Kilogram'.

This is the best training tool you can invest in—after hiring a coach, of course!

Ratings and reviews

The main reason I bought this was for more accurate metrics, but also the integration with exr. When I first got it there was a bug that caused a huge lag. Not only did they fix the bug, but support was incredibly helpful and kept me informed while they were fixing it. Now the integration works great and I can also use this main app to improvemy performance.

This app sucks. Been using it for 3 months roughly 4 times a week and it syncs inconsistently. Workouts might show up at 2am, if at all. Its fine for tracking in real time (my splits are accurate) but do not expect them to be saved to your profile. Cmon guys.... I now track my efforts on the rower with strava. At least it shows me SOMETHING and end of my workout...

Connection to SR and HRM is solid and dependable. Workouts are challenging. Two suggestions - 1) for specified stroke rate, a metronome would be helpful 2)An option to pause a workout or row and then resume would be fantastic (like happens, kids need help, dogs bark, rowers get used as an interval in a workout with other equipment and activities)
