The factory App is basic, which I like, yet shows all of the important stuff. It has a wide variety of named workout routines, including cycling and skiing, and the ability to modify or easily create your own named routine. After imputing personal stats it auto-computes your personal heart rate ranges and calories burned, along with easy to read graphs that track each other. On our bike rides we get a detailed map of our route with elevation, speed, and heart rate graphs. Additional pages of collected data can be added at will. The stationary workout routines of course do not show mileage or elevation and are tailored to the workout you choose, all of which are saved in history and easily retrieved or deleted. Linking is easy to a plethora of fitness apps. I personally just use the factory app, but my wife links to Google Fit.
Cleaning is easy with mild soap and water as the sensor is waterproof with no battery doors. I had heard how flimsy the band was, really? Its a soft Velcro band that is very comfortable and after a month of daily use and a few cleanings I see no signs of visible wear. That said, it is not stainless steel or hard plastic which would no doubt last longer at the price of comfort. I think the band is a non issue, when and if I wear it out I'll just replace it, to me comfort is more important than extreme longevity.
Bottom line is we are extremely satisfied and glad we did not listen to some of the bad reviews or get a wrist watch or the chest strap type. Is it perfect? No, and you will need to experiment a little to get your personal 'sweet spot' for where to place it on your body. After that it will perform very well. We use them daily!
Don’t like the inconvenience or discomfort of chest straps, and found wrist monitors like an Apple Watch frequently not accurate and or update rate too slow. But the Wahoo armband is PERFECT! As accurate ( or very close) to my chest strap, but FAR more comfortable and much easier to use, it also updates rate very very quickly ( usually within 1-3 beats), great battery life, easy to charge up in about 1.5hrs.
Arm placement was very easy about1in below elbow on outer forearm works perfect!
Had to take my time adjusting tightness of band to be snug, but not to tight. Very comfortable to wear for long periods during any time of exercise. Once band length is set it just slides on or off very easily, no need to adjust after that. Not sure about the negative reviews, but mine works flawlessly and easily.
Will never go back to a chest strap monitor.
I suspect the reviewers who had dropouts on readings either had tightness of band wrong or incorrect placement,, does take a little experimentation initially.
Great product!! I’d give it 6 stars if I could.
Pros:
1. I like the upper forearm positioning, just below the elbow, sensor on the inner part of the arm. The strap is easy to adjust, even when wet with perspiration. I never notice the device once it is in place, and it is quick to put on even on the tennis court. No need to remove the shirt, as for a chest strap.
2. Waterproof. I rinse mine in the sink.
3. Comfortable, durable band. My first one outlasted the device. Body salts will accumulate in the band from perspiration, and this may shorten the life of the band if not rinsed out regularly.
4. Effortless charging with the magnetic adapter. Monitor state of charge on the app.
5. Excellent battery life. I used almost daily and charged about once a week.
6. Pretty good Bluetooth range, with some forethought and positioning. I often attend tennis drills where we are rotating across three adjacent courts. I don't like playing with my phone on my person, so I leave it in my tennis bag between two of the courts. Set up properly, I could operate across all three courts without drop outs. There is a learning curve here. I found that elevating the phone, and leaving it in an outside mesh pocket definitely improved the range.
7. The app has customizable heart rate zones, so you can adjust for age or fitness level if that is important to you. I like it because I look for a certain amount of time each week in the very hard zone and moderate to hard. The customizable zones makes it easy for me to track.
8. Slim, low-profile design with minimal user interface.
9. Reasonable price for the included capabilities.
Cons:
1. I tried using it on the inside and outside of my wrist, but the results were poor with suspect data and drop outs.
2. Even using it on the inner forearm gave me problems at first. After some weeks I found the sweet spot and appropriate band tension and then very rarely had problems after that. I look for a vein near the surface of the skin and try to position the optical sensor right over that, just below the elbow. If you experience problems initially, don't get frustrated. Keep trying different things, you will get it eventually.
3. When your session is over, you have to push a button on your phone screen to stop your session in the app, and then push another to save it, or data will be lost. That's a lot to ask from person in a post-workout state of hypoxia. Seems to me there should be an auto-save feature.
4. After four years of regular use, when tightening the band one day, the molded-in strap retention bar broke away from the body of the device, rendering it useless. This area needs to be beefed up. Nevertheless, I got so much use out of this thing that I ordered another one.
5. When used during tennis, the calorie count in the app seems way high to me, like probably 2x or 3x estimates based on standard activity tables for calorie consumption. I think this is due to the HIIT-like nature of tennis, with heartrate rising and falling over a wide range. When I have used this device while cycling or cross country skiing, the calorie counts seem much more realistic.

I occasionally use this monitor for running along with the free Wahoo Fitness app. It works well and is a reliable basic fitness app.
