AI Gym 4+

As the title states, this app has potential, but loading failures, not uploading progress post session and inaccurate training feedback make this very disappointing. If there was an alternative app for the Renpho AI Bike, I’d be using that instead.
Just finished a video ride session, worked hard throughout only to find the app didn’t register a single thing. I appreciate it is a ‘free’ app, but come on, please get it to work properly.

Dear customer, we feel really sorry for the late reply. Please note we have fixed this problem in the newest version, you can try it again now. Please feel free to contact us if you have any problems via mail: support@renpho.com. Merry Christmas! Customer Service Team

Firstly the positives. The massive one is it comes included with the purchase of the bike, so it’s not another subscription you have to buy into. There is a nice mix of ftp sessions, traditional bike ‘spin’ classes and some video sessions which are becoming popular. The app is also relatively lightweight and doesn’t download everything until you request it. If like me you’re a bit of a peloton/AF+/Wahoo user, this provides a nice alternative. I also think the FTP test they use is one of the better ones I have done, and doing it regularly means the ftp program in app is constantly changing to meet your new score.

There are a few downsides. Firstly, the app is prone to bugs upon update. Although these are becoming fewer and far between. The biggest issue for me though is integration into HealthKit. It’s pretty none existent in all honesty and if you use the watch to monitor your heart, the calories/distance data is not transferred to the fitness app, only the heart rate, and this is annoying.

Overall, three stars. Good little app that enhances the experience on bike, although not essential and does need some issues looking at.

Dear customer, thank you for your feedback. AI Gym app only supports connecting ANT+ heart rate monitors such as Polar, Wahoo, SCOSCHE, CooSpo, MOOFIT. It only supports the heart rate data currently. Please accept our deepest apologies for the inconvenience caused. Regarding your suggestion, we will forward it to our technical department to evaluate the possibility. Sincerely, Renpho Customer Service Team

I appreciate that this app has been written and made available for the Renpho exercise bike. It’s a free app and has 70+ cycling exercises. This a great alternative to Peloton which are just ridiculously expensive IMO.

The main improvement points I would like to raise are the power watts, FTP ….etc These are white numbers on a grey background and are not that easy to see - is it possible to change the background to red and the numbers to black or a similar highly visible contrast to make the numbers stand out more

Other than that I am enjoying use the App with the bike! …. Thanks

Dear customer, thank you for your feedback. Regarding your suggestion, we will forward it to our technical department for improvement. We hope you can enjoy the Al Smart Bike all the time. Sincerely, Renpho Customer Service Team
