ANGI specializes app

Former Member over 5 years ago

I know Garmin has it's own bike and wrist based crash detection app but when, like wahoo, are you going to link to the specialized app for ANGI which is becoming increasingly popular with cyclists. I've switched from wahoo a while ago but I now think I'm missing out.

I did use the idea submission form as stated above and I didnt get a reply...as stated above, I have therefore concluded that they are not interested in angi...as stated above.

.. another possibility could be using a Connect IQ extension for the communication with the ANGI device. You can try finding a CIQ developer willing to create it, or better yet contacting the ANGI manufacturer - it would be in their highest interrest having such plugin for Garmin devices, so they may be willing developing it, or financing the development.

as stated above ( ) they do not answer suggestions even if they are interested, hence your conclusion is not necesarily correct

Nevertheless it is my conclusion also bearing in mind the suggestion was made 7 months ago. The other solution which I know some are adopting is to buy a wahoo which does precisely what I have suggested.

this is useful. Saves multiple apps being open; and phone drain from the specialised app tracking

How does ANGi compare to Garmin's Incident Detection Feature?

Garmin® uses an accelerometer to determine if there's an impact to the bicycle. The regular motion of riding, starting, and stopping can trigger false alarms. Additionally, an impact to a bike that triggers the alarm can happen even when the rider is unharmed.

ANGi is attached to the helmet and is specifically designed to measure linear and rotational forces to the head. The sensor is specifically looking for crashes that deliver dangerous forces that could result in a rider being unable to seek help themselves. ANGi is designed to get riders help when they need it most.
