Ratings and reviews

I have to agree with other reviewers about the very poor quality of the latest version of this app. I have done four rides over the past week and the app has not successfully uploaded ANY of them to Strava. The previous version of the app was very reliable at uploading. In all of the cases, I was able to email myself a copy of the FIT file from my phone/Bolt. In three of the cases, I was able to manually upload the FIT file to Strava. In the fourth case, the FIT file would not uploading and I spent about two hours trying to diagnose the problem before concluding the file the app emailed to me was essentially garbage data. Like many other reviewers, I would simple like to have the old app back! Wahoo clearly hasn't learned the old adage "if it ain't broke, don't try to fix it!"

If after having this app for some time it suddenly begins crashing, not even letting it load even a little, then clear the cache and data, and it will probably come right up the next time you try to open it. This occurred to me, causing much frustration. It now works like a charm again, and I really like this app. I just think their troubleshooting steps on their website could have said something about that so I could have avoided several months of frustration.

Used to work well. Recent update, or maybe it's updates to the Bolt, have resulted in very inconsistent behavior mostly in terms of keeping connected. I've set the app so it won't get paused - that fixed the connection problem for a while when I noticed it last year, but with the most recent update the problem is back. Connection keeps resetting during the ride and I have to wait a good 10 minutes after finishing for the data to sync.
