After my Wahoo Elmnt Roam bike computer died, I have been using an old smartphone with android apps instead of a dedicated bike computer. I noticed that Wahoo Fitness and Strava have some significant limitations when it comes to either customisable metrics being displayed (both Wahoo & Strava) and BT sensor support (Strava only supports HR, not Cadence, Speed or Power). For example, “Ride with GPS” has a fully customisable metrics screen (even with the free version!) and supports many different types of sensors. It would be much better if Strava supported more than just HR and it is quite insulting to subscribers to suggest it has been “resolved” with the topic linked here: https://communityhub.strava.com/topic/show?tid=5083&fid=6
Furthermore, the Strava metrics screen should be customizable with more than just Speed, Distance, Time and HR, e.g. it should support other BT sensors like Cadence, Speed and Power as well as typical metrics found in wahoo and garmin devices. You might find that if Strava does a really good job that people ditch their Wahoo Roams and Garmin devices when their batteries inevitably fail (like mine) and just use their Strava “premium” metrics display on their strava app as their new “bike computer”.
