BitGym: Treadmill Cycling Erg
authentic ratingThe app moves your home workout into beautiful virtual scenery around the world and can read your speed with the camera without sensors, and that is what people love. What breaks the immersion is that the coaching voice cannot be turned off in favor of quiet nature sounds, video buffers and stutters when streaming to a TV, and the trails are stitched together from pieces of different places rather than one continuous route. People also complain about sound dropping out, which makes the app useless, freezing at login, and price increases when cheaper options exist nearby.
Reviews are detailed and cite years of use, with people writing about the camera that reads speed, video trails stitched from pieces, and specific routes like Tokyo and Hawaii. The 4.82 store and 4.36 text averages are close, the complaints are concrete, and there is no sign of fakery.
