Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Polar Bluetooth Smart Stride Sensor by Brent Walker

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Only works with Polar app

I run on a treadmill so I mean Record distance and keep going. Use the same app for all your activities (outdoor running, biking, skiing). Unfortunately, the only iPhone app that supports the foot pod is the original Polar app. It also doesn't create a file that can be exported from the Polar app to Strava. I spoke to Polar and Strava about it. Apparently Strava is working on supporting it and it will be released in time for winter training. Don't get me wrong, Polar has a really nice and well-functioning app, but it's just a working app. I appreciate knowing this beforehand as this expensive gadget now sits in my kitchen drawer awaiting assistance.

Pros
  • Includes smart features to measure running speed and distance when paired with a Bluetooth Smart enabled device and a mobile training app like Polar Beat
Cons
  • No automatically
