Cannondale
gamed ratingThe native app for Cannondale bikes is valued for service reminders, working with the rear radar and on-screen alerts, and connecting to sensors over Bluetooth. It breaks often, the app drains the phone battery within a dozen or so miles, speed and distance are inflated, and sharing a ride throws an App Store promo video instead of a link. The lack of an Apple Watch version and losing the sensor connection, which stalls a ride on pause without resuming, add to the pain.
The store holds 4.84, but the text average is 2.34 and almost every specific complaint sits next to short empty five-stars like 'Great Bike' and 'Great work out' that are about the bike and workout, not the app. That sharp gap and the pile of one-word praise with no detail give away an inflated score.
