About this app

CATEYE Cycling™ App for Android. This app works with Bluetooth SMART sensors or can be used directly with a smartphone to measure and record ride data/route information, and upload this data to the CatEyeAtlas™, Strava™ and TrainingPeaks™ sites.
Mirror Mode and call/email alert features can be used to enhance your riding experience when Cateye Cycling™ is paired with a CATEYE smart computer.
In Mirror Mode, data from the smartphone is sent to the CATEYE smart computer where it can be viewed. Phone call and email alert icons are also displayed. The smart computer can work with Bluetooth SMART Speed, Cadence, Heart Rate and Power sensors in this mode. When smartphone use is not an option, Sensor Direct Mode can be used as a backup. This mode syncs the smart computer directly with the Bluetooth SMART Speed, Cadence, Heart Rate or Power sensor.
Other features include smart set-up (configuration of various smart computer settings, automatic clock adjustment), display customization, automatic clock adjustment, and importing of a summary of ride data in Sensor Direct Mode.

Ratings and reviews

Summary: this app is the only app that syncs with Cateye's smart computers. And it doesn't do it very well. If you like Strava and syncing your trip/stats to your mobile and other services, DON'T BUY AN CATEYE! I recently bought a Cateye Strada Smart that sync to this app (and only this app). The app has a horrible design which I can live with. It crashes frequently, but after a while you figure out when (for example when you push android back button instead of using the back-arrow in the app). But after upgrading to Android Pie is crashes constantly at startup. Tried reinstalling but same same. Contacting support just left me with an somewhat arrogant "sorry, you device is not supported". To me it's quite unbelievable they don't put any more resources into this app (or preferably a rewrite of it). Strava and analysing trips stats is a must these days. Garmin gets it.

There are too many issues on this app. While riding, mirror mode measurement is working fine, the moment when I stopped for some time, speed/cadence sensor and computer turn it off, when turn it back on, both computer and sensors unable to resume the connection with my samsung S10 phone. It only able to work when I re-launch the app again, rotate the pedal, turn on my computer, wait for a min then I able to connect. As such, this causes the route unable to be traced exactly where I rode as well.

The app crashes since the update to Android 9 . I think when you sell device at those price it is a minimum that I should be able to use it . Since it is the only way to connect it . They should update the app as fast as possible . Disappointed . But had to agree that it was working fine before.
