The most advanced Apple Watch app

In this latest release we have added support for the fitness industry Bluetooth FTMS standard.

This means we now supports indoor rowers, indoor bikes and treadmills.

This is the only Apple Watch app that works with Concept2 machines (rowers, BikeErgs and SkiErgs) and with indoor rowers, indoor bikes, indoor bike trainers and treadmills.

The FTMS acronym stands for Fitness Machine Service and it is part of the Bluetooth standard.

The FTMS standard is supported by the Spinner® Chrono™ Power bikes, the Atom Wattbike, Technogym rowers and many others.

More and more “smart” connected machines are in the market. With our Apple Watch app you can track your workouts and automatically analyze all your activities in the Selfloops website. Activities are automatically uploaded at the end of the session.

With the Apple Watch application is also possible to join group heart rate tracking sessions in your gym (the only Apple Watch app able to do it), and track cardio workouts.

Download our Selfloops Spark app from the App Store.

Videos and music in the Group Fitness sessions

We have created an integrated experience that makes it possible to simultaneously track sensors and play multimedia content in a single application.

This features is available in our Group Fitness Premium application and allows a coach to play videos and/or music while tracking the workout data.

With just one click, it is possible to switch, during the session, from the video screen to the tracking screen.

The multimedia content together with the structured workouts feature allows the coach to create highly interactive and structured experiences.

For more information on how to use it, please check our support pages.

Activity Feed

The Activity Feed is a view that shows the workouts of your team and athletes performed over a certain period of time. This view is part of the tools we offer to coaches to better track and support their athletes.

The date range of the feed can be selected and the information available are the summary of their workouts and their notes. The coach can add his notes directly from the feed. An in-depth view of the activity is available by selecting the specific item in the feed.


Available on Android TV

We are happy to announce that our Group Fitness service is now available on the Android TV platform.

Our Group Fitness service is the first application that supports ANT+ sensors on Android TV. And we support Bluetooth sensors too.

The application has been redesigned to support a user interface that do not have “touch” for user interaction. You just use the TV remote control to run the service.

This means you can run our Group Fitness applications directly on the Android TV operating system.

There are many TV boxes and TVs available in the market that use the Android TV OS.

Continuous innovation is what pushes us forward.
