User Reviews

The app is praised as a useful ANT+ testing tool and valued for testing devices, with positive sentiment from some users. However, it suffers from widespread crashes and major compatibility problems on Android 10/11 and latest Samsung devices. Some features fail to work after updates, and users urge ongoing maintenance to restore stability and compatibility. Overall, usefulness is acknowledged, but reliability is inconsistent.

Pros

Useful for testing ANT+ hardware.
Positive sentiment; described as great to have and handy for testing devices.
Valued tool for developers and testers working with ANT+ hardware.

Cons

Frequent crashes and instability across options and devices.
Not compatible with newer Android versions (Android 10/11+) and newer Samsung devices (e.g., S10, S22).
Specific features often don’t work (e.g., Geocaching Chirp routine, HRM strap) after updates.
Requires ongoing updates/maintenance; many reports of it stopping work after Android updates.
General device compatibility issues on newer systems reduce reliability.
