Been experimenting using my iPhone as my cyclometer/head unit, but haven’t found a great app for this. Recommendations ST?
Requirements:
Supports Bluetooth LE accessories (speed, cadence, hr, power)
GPS/Map (like to have)
Displays Current Speed, Cadence, HR and Power
I tried Strava, but the small display and lack of current speed is a dealbreaker.
RunKeeper won’t support cadence, power and non-GPS speed.

Thanks, looks like this is the most flexible one.
In doing this, just keep an eye on your battery consumption. Granted I have an older iPhone but still the GPS-based apps tend to consume battery. Just be aware of it and have a plan for longer rides. You don’t want to need your phone to call for help and not have juice.

I’m using a 4s, and get ~2hrs. with the screen and GPS going.
I like cyclemeter by abvio. I believe it was the first app that worked with all the wahoo devices

You could always turn the screen off at certain times when you don’t need the info in your face. I know that when I’m going straight on flat roads, I don’t really need the odo to tell me what I’m doing.
Wahoo has great exporting capabilities. I recently tried out iMobileIntervals, but have had a few issues with it (losing connection with my RFLKT+, will not connect to garmin connect) and cannot recommend spending money on it.
