Description
Use your phone as a sensor while running on a treadmill for Zwift or Arcade Fitness Broadcast speed and heart rate (with Garmin watches) over Bluetooth Low Energy Manual Mode ⭐️ Set the speed manually by pressing on screen buttons. ⭐️ A custom button allows you to enter your own speed value which can be great for hiit. ⭐️ No calibration or measurement issue. ⭐️ Speed is recorded very precisely.
Auto Mode ⭐️ Put your phone in an arm band ⭐️ Or take it in your hand ⭐️ Running speed will be computed automatically ⭐️ Adjust running speed by setting up step length parameter (we advise you to do this when you are running around 10km/h)
With ANT+ Footpod ⭐️ Bridge ANT+ footpod into Bluetooth Smart sensor with Running Speed and Cadence feature ⭐️ Requires ANT+ native smartphone or ANT+ USB stick
With Garmin watch ⭐️ Use your Garmin watch with its integrated accelerometer ⭐️ Broadcast heart rate from optical Garmin watch sensor to Zwift over BLE ⭐️ In case you get an exclamation mark when starting the watch app, please reboot the watch, start the watch app alone. If you get the same, this means that your watch is probably not compatible with our watch app. In this case we advise you to use the manual mode.
🚨 Important to read with Zwift 🚨 ⭐️ If you start and your avatar doesn't move or if you get disconnected regularly this is probably because you are using the Bluetooth direct connection which is selected by default with Zwift on Windows. ⭐️ In this case you need connect through Zwift Companion app on a separate phone ⭐️ If you get multiple 'Speed T', this is because Zwift connect to your device in order to know if running speed is available and the virtual address of your phone changes for privacy reasons. This address change is implemented by device manufacturers and cannot be avoided by developers since it is linked to 'privacy and security'. Don't worry, your phone still have only one address but since it has changed, it appears in Zwift as a new device. ⭐️ We regularly update the help page and strongly advise you to read it carefully when trying to connect Speed Transmitter to Zwift : https://bipr.fr/treadmill-speed-transmitter
The app is free for 8 minutes workouts, if you want to do longer exercises, you will have to buy the full version.

Comments on Treadmill Speed Transmitter for Android
★★★★★Grant Pyper· Jan 25, 2023
Wow, for Swift runs on my treadmill, does exactly what I need. BT pairing with my ipad also still allows BT connection to my phone for the companion app at the same time. I've only used it twice, though, so fingers crossed. I was using a Swift Run pod, which can vary by up to 2kph at higher speeds. I use this app on Manual and Match the speed on the treadmill perfectly now. Saved me £150 as I was considering a Stryd run pod.
★★★★☆Richard Harris· Apr 14, 2021
Sort of works for me. I am only interested in the manual mode to send a treadmill speed to Swift. Typically works for about 20–25 minutes and then the Bluetooth connection drops out. Better than my Run pod for most of the time but not perfect.
★★★★★Stephanie Reed· Dec 3, 2020
I use this to run on Swift on my phone without a $100 running pod. Later, I got a Garmin foot pod, and it turns out the Gamins don't transmit speed. So I still use Treadmill Speed Transmitter.

Paid for this app on Google play, connected it with Garmin Fenix 3HR, and tried to connect Swift on PC with Ant+ dongle. Only HR sensor works, not the speed. Disappointing app.

Doesn't work for pairing fenix 5s to zwift

Have a Samsung Galaxy J7 and Amazon Fire HD 10 with Swift on PC. No problem running the apps or pairing the Speed T run/cadence sensor in either configuration of device acting as Companion, but never able to see an actual speed detected after hours of cycling power on devices, uninstalling and reinstalling apps, forgetting and pairing Bluetooth connections, and checking permissions.
