Re: Ergdata and apple watch
I have been using the new ErgData app and Apple Watch - Getting great results.
Is it possible to use my ipad with ErgData and the Apple Watch or do i need to use the iPhone?

Re: Ergdata and apple watch
I've used Ergdata for years with my iPhone, but I just got an Apple Watch (Series 8).
This may sound dense, but I'm not exactly sure what I should use Ergdata on my Apple Watch for. I currently use a chest strap HR monitor, and there's an indoor rowing option on the exercise menu on the Apple Watch. I assume that Ergdata on the Watch provides more accurate exercise data to Apple Health than the generic rowing option does? Or not???
Also, when Ergdata updated to the new version of the app, it didn't automatically install on my Watch. I installed it via the App Store on the Watch, but when I tap it the only thing that comes up is "Ready to workout? Create and start a workout on your phone."
Am I doing something wrong or missing something?
Thanks!

I tried posting this yesterday, but checking back I ee it's not here. Hopefully just a technical glitch and not something I wrote.Zuman wrote: ↑November 9th, 2022, 1:07 pmI've used Ergdata for years with my iPhone, but I just got an Apple Watch (Series 8).

I've got experience with the Peloton, and the Apple Watch now, after a recent update, works well there. I checked around a bit, and it seems to work the same way with Ergdata. What that means is, first, it handles the heart rate automatically--no need connect with Bluetooth or ANT+ or whatever. If you "Join the Workout," your heart rate should appear on the PM5. (Not sure, but I think it's PM5 only.) The other thing it does is make its data available automatically to the whole Apple Fitness/Health system on the watch--so if you're working toward those daily fitness rings, your Ergdata workouts will count toward that. (I'm fairly new to the Apple Watch myself, and I'm still figuring out how all that works.)
