Ratings and reviews

I would have given this five stars had the GPS map tracking continue to work with my H10 monitor by continuing to accurately capture my exercise route. Unfortunately, within the past 2-3 months it has become extremely unreliable and inaccurate. For many months before it seemed to track very accuracy to within just yards. Now when I look at the map after my workout there's a jigsaw of two to three points making no sense of my distance jogged or walked. Totally inaccurate and very disappointing.

Distance not correct on cycling activity. Figured out that when app is set to "Imperial" (versus metric), it does a Km to Miles conversion on whatever my final distance is even though it's already in miles. I.e. if I ride 10 miles, it will show I've gone 6.2 miles (10 Km = 6.2 miles even though it was originally 10 miles). Contacted support but only 1 response saying it was a phone issue and not the app. Workaround is to record in Imperial, then switch to metric to view results in miles (it will say distance is Km but it's the exact unit in miles). As someone else mentioned in a review, the wahoo app works much better. It's accurate, and the Bluetooth connectivity is more reliable with the H7 heart rate monitor.

To the Polar developer: The location should not be required for viewing past sessions or updating settings. The main/home screen is why this happens. After almost everything I do in the app, I'm eturned to a screen that prompts me to turn on the location. This is simply bad app design. Since the developer did not address the lack of an Elliptical option I will repeat that it is lacking. There is o Elliptical option for categorizing an activity. The app constantly asks to turn on location.
