Bluetooth cadence sensor pairing

[JohnSimeone]

Hello everyone, I have recently got myself a bluetooth cadence monitor for my bike. Is there an ETA of when I can expect the Strava app will be able to add this device to my account. I have connected heart monitor, but there isn't a cycling cadence option.

Hi there,

We currently don't support pairing sensors besides heart rate monitors through the Strava app. It is on our roadmap, but I do not have an estimated timeline for when it will be implemented. We recommend using one of the many 3rd party applications like the Wahoo Fitness app which can connect both power and cadence sensor types and will automatically upload your activity to Strava and sync your cadence data too. Or, if you are using a standalone device/watch, you can check if the device can sync directly with Strava by visiting https://www.strava.com/apps.

To recap, here is how to record activities with non-heart rate Bluetooth sensors:

Strava Mobile App: Download and record your activities using Wahoo Fitness.

Strava Wearable apps for Apple Watch, Samsung Galaxy/Gear and WearOS devices: Continue recording normally.

GPS watches and cycling computers (Garmin, Wahoo, Polar ETC): Continue recording normally.
