Description

No need to buy a brand-new treadmill to log your indoor run. Runn easily installs on your existing treadmill and transmits speed, incline, and cadence via ANT+ and Bluetooth so you never miss a step.

Runn is factory calibrated to be accurate to within .1mph at a 5mph treadmill pace to ensure accurate readings right out of the box. This is especially helpful for non-motorized treadmills and treadmills with worn parts that may not be reaching the speeds they did when they were new.

When used with the NPE heartbeatz Connect Apple Watch application, your Runn simultaneously gets all of your treadmill data into you watch, while also including your heart rate in the Bluetooth connection to a virtual training app. Gone are the days of needing to wear a chest strap when you use an Apple Watch with your Runn!

Links virtually any treadmill to your fitness app
Broadcasts speed, incline, and cadence to apps over Bluetooth or ANT+
Connects Apple Watch Series 2+ heart rate to a fitness app with the heartbeatz connect Apple Watch app
Rechargeable with the included micro-USB cable
Battery lasts for up to 15 hours between charging

Set-up didn't go smoothly. I calibrated it once then the sensor stopped working; no metrics & unable to recalibrate. I needed to factor reset the calibration twice before the sensor began publishing metrics again.

The Android app could use some UX improvements; i.e., disabling the calibrate button without telling the user it's because the sensor isn't detecting treadmill movement is confusing and seems like the app is broken or frozen.

Speed metrics are incredibly accurate with the treadmill readout, so that's great! However the incline metrics are all over the place, not reliable. Sure would be nice to not allow negative values.

Overall happy with the product, working in the software industry I understand bugs happen and sometimes UIs are clunky.

Would recommend if you're patient and enjoy technology, having treadmill metrics in Garmin is excellent.

Wouldn't work consistently

Despite reading the manual, searching forums, watching videos and talking to customer support I was unable to get it to work regularly.

Have a great day!

Great hardware, mediocre software

The Runn Smart Treadmill Sensor works really well to measure treadmill speed and incline. I wish everything on the software side worked as well as the hardware does. The user interface for the iOS apps looks like an old school Java app and is about a responsive. The bluetooth connection to Apple Watch through heartbeatz is flakey. It always requires patience, but also sometimes requires restarting the app repeatedly to get it to connect.

Great sensor

Love this bit of kit works great on Zwift Run, very accurate, easy to assemble and set up, great configuration app too. What’s not to love about it.

Dominic glad to hear it! Thank you for this 5 star review :)

Not yet received.

UPS still has not delivered this. Furthermore, It was a surprise I would have to pay an additional $46 for customs brokerage fees.

We apologize for UPS not getting what you ordered to you sooner. Per tracking looks like you should receive your order today between 0800-1200 (noon). If you want to reach out and discuss further I would be more than happy to speak with you personally. Our email is marketing@npe-inc.com. Once again we apologize for this bad experience you have had.
