iPhone & Android

Or no watch at all

Without a watch, CycleBridge records the ride itself: GPS from the phone, heart rate from any strap that speaks the standard Bluetooth heart rate service.

No watch involved: the phone locates you and the strap handles heart rate.

What it shows

  • Speed, distance and elevation from the phone’s GPS
  • Heart rate from a standard Bluetooth strap
  • A pause button, which in this mode is yours to press
  • The finished ride saved to Apple Health or Health Connect

Any strap using the standard heart rate profile works — there is nothing brand-specific to pair with, and no account to make.

This is the mode where pausing is meaningful. In Garmin mode the watch buttons own pause, so the phone does not offer a second one that could disagree.
