I've got a bike that lives on my turbo, and am looking for an app for my android phone that can;

- display speed and cadence from a Bluetooth speed and cadence sensor, and 'distance' from the same, although obviously I'm stationary!
- display heart rate from a Bluetooth hrm, workout time.
- calculate distance, calories, etc
- cherry on the cake would be Myfitnesspal integration.

Any recommendations?

Of course, Wahoo, that's the one.

In knew there was a suitable app that I had tried for my road biking before settling on Strava for that purpose, but couldn't remember which one it was. Thought it might have been Endomondo, but having downloaded Wahoo, that's the one.

Cheers chaps!

Just had my first turbo session using Wahoo plus HRM & a Speed / Cadence sensor, and it's exactly what I was looking for.

What HRM are you using? Would quite like one as a training tool, but can't really run to a Fenix...

I needed a Bluetooth smart one as I don't have ant+ on my phone, and tried a couple of cheap ones including a Lidl one that others have had good results from, but my super sweat made light work of finding its way in and dissolving them to a lump of non functioning plastic. I'm now using a Decathlon own brand one that was good value, and has lasted over a year.

I've ago just brought a Decathlon speed and Cadence sensor which is on special offer at the moment; I'm hoping they lasts as well as the HRM.
