It’s probably easy for Bluetooth Speed/Cadence sensors but if you only have an ANT+ sensor it is not currently supported.
If speed can already be read from Bluetooth sensors, I suggest using Virtual Power. Try to find the Speed/Power curve for your trainer. And send it to Alex so he can build a database for non-smart-trainers.
Altough, if you have a crank Power meter, I don’t see much use of implementing this in the Trainerday app. Because being the owner of a crank power meter means that you have a Bike computer… Use that to record all data from your indoor ride and use the Trainerday app to visualize your structured training with Power from your Power Meter. Your bike computer almost certainly uses FIT file format and that format can contain a lot more data compared to TCX used in the TrainerDay app.
I already made my point in the App Expectations thread https://forums.trainerday.com/t/app-expectations/66/16
I don’t need another app that can do anything like a Swiss knife. I need an app that let’s me control my indoor structured training as best as possible. And TrainerDay is getting pretty close to perfect for my use case.
But please feel free to disagree with me…
I do see the usefullness to record Speed, but would display Virtual Power iso of speed. Speed is pretty meaningless on an indoor trainer because very dependent on the resistance setting.
And if you record your activity on the bike computer, you got it there anyway.
