Excellent customer service. Thanks, Brian. Elliptical app gives good information. But the distance from the app and what i get at the gym is about a mile in difference.

Thank you for reviewing. This apps does need to be calibrated to match your elliptical machine. The best way to calibrate is to A.) workout for 5 minutes, B.) then adjust Stride Length value until the watch distance matches the elliptical distance. The Elliptical app will post the recorded distance to the CIQ data section. Due to a Garmin NonGPS distance Policy, at this time CIQ apps cannot write to the Main Distance that is displayed at the Connect Summary.

I removed my previous review which did not give this application five stars due to it not recording the distance in the Garmin app. But apparently that is a policy enforcement by Garmin and not the fault of this application. If you go and look at F3B's blog post, it talks all about how you can politely request having this functionality added to the application or allowed to the application. I used this for the first time last night. It recorded with pretty great accuracy. My distance my heart rates my calorie consumption's. It worked fine with my Ant sensor on my Sole E35 elliptical. So my heart rate also showed up on my elliptical which is what I really bought the Garmin watch for. I would highly recommend this application. It worked much better than the stock elliptical application that came with my Garmin watch.

I just upgraded from a FR245 to a Fenix 7. I am very happy with the Eliptical workout stats. Distance and speed is dead on. I use a HMpro chest strap and all the stats from that is amazing. The 245 worked with this app, but the Fenix 7 works great with this app. Great job f3b!

I had a great deal of trouble purchasing this app through Google pay. I had tried the trial version and liked its features. When I was successful at completing the purchase through Google pay I was charged the incorrect amount. I emailed the developer and within 30 minutes everything was corrected and this happened on a Friday evening. He clearly cares about service and I do not hesitate to recommend this particular product.

Habe die App einige Zeit nicht benutzt. Jetzt ist mir Aufgefallen dass ich die Distanz nicht mehr manuell eintragen kann. Geschwindigkeit ist vorhanden aber Distanz fehlt

The product worked really well up to about a year ago on my VA3 music. Then the heart rate tracking has become extremely inconsistent by up to 30bpm higher and lower during an activity (comparing to a chest HR monitor). When using the standard Garmin activity for Eliptical the HR varies by 1 or 2 bpm compared to the chest HRM. Is there perhaps a setting that can rectify this?

Developer Reply
July 23, 2021, f3b

Ed, sorry you are having an issue, a low battery will cause inconstant HR. Contact me directly.

Struggling with the setup - I've followed the directions several times. Got on the elliptical today and it stopped at 7 minutes (trial version) ? Help ?

Prinzipiell gut und mit den erweiterten Werten sehr informativ. Leider ist die Einrichtung der App in der deutschen Übersetzung ein Graus. Man muss einen Wert eintragen der nirgends klar erklärt wird. Es hat wohl mit einer Seite des Crosstrainers zu tun. Es sind aber weder Meter, noch Zentimeter... Hat man das aber mal raus funktioniert die App recht gut. Schade das die Distanz nicht in Garmin Connect übergeben wird, aber das liegt nicht am Entwickler oder der App.

Can anyone help and tell me were is the CIQ in the connect or the IQ in the connect? I have been looking for the speed and the distance. I have spent hours looking for it. Website is not very friendly .

Developer Reply
February 22, 2021, f3b

Thanks for reviewing, the data is in both Connect app and Connect Web IQ Stats and Graphs. the IQ values and graph sort below the base Garmin values and Graphs.

I'm a BIG fan of all of the "fbbbrown" apps (especially Training+, the only crossfit app worth a darn, IMHO). I'd almost prefer to delete all native Garmin apps and replace them with the full suite. That said, the ellipse app's stride length only being only measured in meters (or factions thereof) leaves me wanting here. Typically, I'm really only concerned with a good reading of my heart rate, calories burned, and training score, and on an ellipse machine, "distance" is kind of a joke anyway, nevertheless, but here I am still wishing I had that particular data point in a relatable unit of measurement all the same.

Developer Reply
January 18, 2021, f3b

Thanks for reviewing, i will revise the stride length input to match the units.

Sorry the app went to trial mode, the Garmin Connect updates resets the users data. Enter your purchase email again and the app will unlock.
