Indoor Cycling Workout

ICW aims to be the most reliable, efficient and easy to use indoor cycling workouts app.
ICW lets you design your workouts using a powerful and intuitive editor. It then connects to an ANT+ FE-C trainer (not bluetooth) and automatically adjusts the resistance level according to the planned workout. Power, cadence, speed and heart rate data are collected as you ride and displayed on a comprehensive interface. Once the ride is complete, training data can be analyzed inside the app, uploaded to Strava (Pro version only), or exported as FIT files.

Key features:
• Powerful workout editor: mix interval types in a single workout at will (grade, power, %FTP), pinch to zoom in/out, move intervals using drag&drop, easy interval copy, etc.
• Comprehensive user interface, with extended ride control.
• No internet connection needed. Workouts, activities and private profile data are saved locally and not shared with anyone, unless you decide to do so (Strava, FIT file export).
• Works on both phones and tablets (a large screen is recommended as ICW will be able to display more data).
• Support for multiple user/bike/trainer profiles
• Free ride mode
• Works with ANT+ FE-C enabled trainers and heart rate monitors.
• Lean, efficient and smooth app in a small APK

Indoor Cycling Workout is a free app, without ad, and can be unlocked to a Pro version to achieve even more:
• Direct upload to Strava, including multiple activities at once
• No workout duration limit, ride as long as you can (45min max in the free version)
• Unlimited number of workout plans for an increased flexibility (5 max in the free version)

If you like this app, please consider switching to the Pro version and support the development of ICW!

Please note: in order to benefit from this app, you need an ANT+ enabled Android phone or tablet, as well as an ANT+ FE-C compatible trainer.This includes most Tacx smart trainers, Bkool Pro and similar. Other ANT+ FE-C trainers should work as well. In case of issue, please report it by e-mail so that it can be fixed. Warning: some trainers can operate in either ANT+ or Bluetooth mode, please make sure that ANT+ is selected, Bluetooth will not work. Cadence sensors and heart rate monitors need to be ANT+ too.ANT+ on Android is built into most Samsung and Sony devices. For devices without integrated ANT+, the feature can be added with an USB dongle and an OTG cable (ICW has been tested with Garmin and Suunto USB sticks).

In case of issue, question or feature suggestion, no hesitation, send me an e-mail at [email protected]. Thanks, and now go for a ride!

Great App. I paid for the pro. Cheaper than the alternatives. I've been using this for a few weeks now as an alternative to Trainerroad. As stated, it works only with Ant+, but that's exactly what I was searching for. I prefer it over Bluetooth. In no time I created my own workouts. There is plenty out there to copy. I'll be buying the extra workouts offered too. The only issue I had was no option to reduce the FTP for the workout, during a workout, only the segment or lap.

Great alternative to all the subscription-based fancy online VR mega-applications. I use this for training with my wahoo during the summer while Zwift is paused. For straight up training it is all you need. (Add TV for entertainment if you must). Improvement suggestions: 1) The data-fields are a little small and on my phone not fully visible 2) The main part of the screen is focused on the chart, which I find not so useful. I'd rather see my current and average metrics bigger and analyze any charty-thingys after the ride. 3) Doing intervals without pre-defining them could be easier. The +/- buttons only do in-/decrements of 5W. That's a lot of button-presses between recovery and threshold wattage. Maybe have a +/-50W button? Or a button to switch between two settings (like TV remotes have this "PREV-Channel")

It just works. I like it and paid for it. Some feedback (using Galaxy Note 8): 1. On landscape view, the metrics on the top are cropped, so could not see the numbers properly. 2. Font for the numbers could be a little bigger. 3. Be nice to have some sound to alert for an upcoming interval.

First, I have to say, I really like this app. It is my favorite indoor ANT+ cycling app, and therefore I bought the pro version. The reason I rate it with 3 stars for the moment is because I encountered some errors, and I hope that the developers could maybe release an updated version. Afterwards, this app would be a clear 5 star rating for me. Findings: 1) When trying to create a backup, I get an error message (space and Java). 2) The Upload to Strava works for me just when signing in with email + password. When using the "Google login" option, I receive an error 403. 3) When checking my logged session the session time is showing a strange value, this is because the first "lap" is not showing the correct timing. When checking the Strava upload, the timing is fine. Last but not least I have a feature request, I would like to export/import custom created workouts, so I can share them with my friends.

Can you please add Bluetooth support? I love the app, but I have to use it on my old phone that barely works since Samsung did away with ANT+ This is better than any other smart trainer controller app I've used except for not having Bluetooth support. It crashes when I try to upload to training peaks from the app. I could be using an outdated version since I have to run it on my Note 5 since that has ANT+.

Max. H. Sep 5, 2019     

Really excellent. (Note: it’s ANT+ only – no Bluetooth). I’ve been using ICW for over 2 years – it’s been perfect. I’ve used it on two different Tacx trainers with Wahoo HRM and cadence sensors. I’ve used the app on a Samsung Galaxy S5 (which is ANT+ enabled) and separately used it on a Samsung tablet (no Ant+) with a Tacx dongle. The app has always worked perfectly – I’ve never had a problem with it. I’ve prepared my own custom workouts – easy to do. Note that if you add or change a trainer, HRM or cadence sensor you need to select the new one under Profiles (the app takes you through this on first set-up). Overall it’s an excellent app which is easy to use.

Oma. G. Sep 27, 2018     

Great app. Bought the subscription. It was very easy to connect my Ant+ HRM and Cadence sensor to my Samsung. TACX Vortex Smart also connected without an issue. Connected to TrainingPeaks and could send structured workouts from my coach directly to ICW . Upload to Strava/Trainingpeaks was also smooth. The only thing I'm missing is for ICW to display a cadence target from the uploaded workout when I am doing cadence drills.

Lat. T. Jan 21, 2020     

i like the practicality of thia app it's probably only one that cna combine ERG mode with slope mode in one workout but the glitches that it has spokes with resistance after each change in interval after 30s and also when doing long slope interval where resistance suddenly drops after 30s also lack of use of Bluetooth makes this only *, please fix at least the glitches

Hi, As a Samsung Phone user everything was going well. Now with tablet on android 10 i’m having problems doing and restoring backups. Please provide a solution as this is not pleasant. I purchased the full app including the training plans and want to set back my previous history. Now i’m not capable. Bummer

Simple and functional. Two downsides are that 1. The UI layout is slightly broken so that top field and second field overlap with each other 2. Only ant is possible and no bluetooth

Pri. S. Sep 4, 2020     

Just tested it with Trainingpeaks and my Kickr Core. It is great for the price. I used this to control the trainer and my Garmin FR935 to record, but the data was identical from both. There is not a lot of information on how to make this work. So, here's a brief tutorial. Create and edit your profile. Download your workout from Trainingpeaks in the .erg format. I used my computer and put it on Google Drive. Then, on my phone, I uploaded the custom workout by navigating to my Google Drive.

Tested, works great, so I bought the pro version. The workout creator is pretty easy and the app in general is very straighforward, so it was definitely worth the money. Also been able to import workouts makes the app even better! Good job guys!!!

Tra. Jan 3, 2021     

The app is usefull. I paied for the pro version however i would like to make a suggestion. Importing the erg file is great however the app does not show important information like the required cadance rpm. The information is available into the erg file however it is not displayed. Same thing apply also for the plans that comes.with the app. No rpm info. Intead a.part of the comment is displayed which actually useles. Please correct that. Will be very nice.

Great app, simply all what is needed, it is just that the font size is way too small and cannot reconfigure the UI. I regret I need to drop it

Abh. K. Apr 23, 2021     

Simple easy to use app! Loved the simple uncomplicated interface. Would love to see more training programs though

sea. h. Nov 20, 2018     

Perfect for use with Samsung tablet phone and my Tacx Neo. I create the workouts on my phone then either use then or download the workout to Google drive then upload to tablet and control the Neo. Brilliant.

Will not work with a classic trainer that does not transmit? Will not allow me to manually configure the trainer type and will not identify my Garmin speed sensor. I like the interface and really wanted use this

Xellent app Would be perfect if background was black and an audio signal feature added that signals the beginning of an interval.

Man. O. Mar 10, 2021     

Worth it, bought USB OTG cable with USB Ant+ Receiver, install Ant+ software, tried it, then upgrade to Pro version. Ignore the speed indicator, focus to others 😁

Lau. v. J. Oct 21, 2019     

As mentioned this is ANT+ only! Works really well, simple and jet advanced .... exactly the trainer app i was looking for.

Fio. A. Apr 21, 2019     

Great for custom building structured workouts - nice, simple interface.

A. G. u. Dec 26, 2018     

It's only ANT compatible. Both My phone and bike sensors are Bluetooth only. Uninstalling the app.

o. g. Dec 11, 2019     

Never connected via ant+ with my smart trainer. I use a taxc satori smart..also I got all the side apps it needs.

Pie. C. Aug 3, 2019     

I got the premium right away, want to pair device .... and it is not compatible BT... seriously. the worst is you can't get a refund

Ama. M. Apr 16, 2021     

Simple, useful and at a just price. Just what I was looking for so far, thank you!
