Bosch eBike Connect 4+

Could do with seeing battery charging remotely

I think this app is pretty good, although haven’t experienced others so hard to compare, I like certain functions and features plus paid for the premium to change settings of support via the 4 modes, admittedly haven’t been convinced I’ve set up properly and only had Cube e-bike a little while, charged 3 times so far, what would be good is to see the battery percentage while charging on the app when being charged outside in Asgard e-bike storage, so have to guess, usually around 4 hours, the app does have room for improvements and maybe a few more tweaks are in development?

Developer Response ,

Hi Daz00707, thank you for your feedback. We will forward this to our development team for possible updates in the future. We appreciate you taking the time to help us improve. Your Bosch eBike Team.

An update for the bike!!

My Nyon on-board computer has just received an update. I thought "hey, they've listened to my complaint that you cannot save a destination or a route, nor can you point to the map and tell it to create a route to that point. A bit lacking really, considering that it's supposed to be a sat-nav.
Anyway, after the update, I find that the only thing that seems to have changed is that there are more "points of interest" installed. I now have a category for Helipads. As all serious cyclists know, it's a big problem when you can't find the nearest helicopter.

9 Aug 2017. Update on my update about the update....
There have now been a few more (updates) since I wrote the above, and, credit where it's due, it is getting better. The whole Nyon thing is becoming better and slicker, with screens that are nice to use. So long as you use the excellent online portal to set up your Nyon then it is a great thing for the bike, even though the on board satnav control is still way too basic. (Anyway, I've added a couple of stars)

Poor for Bosch

After upgrading my eBikeConnect to a Kiox very excited to try the app. It connected easily great start. Went out for a ride to see how it all works. The kiox works fine showing all the features first ride complete let’s check on the app.
Unfortunately that is the positive over. The big issues I have.
1. As I found out unless you keep the location tracking in the background all the time (I have issues with location data on all the time) other apps have it just when using app. This does affect the battery life of the phone and why do Bosch need to know where I am all the time.
2. The syncing is done in Bosch time so first ride only half the data was available until the next time I used the bike. 2nd ride tried to force the sync no chance. The last ride I did showed on the kiox, Never arrived on the phone. What is the point of tracking your months ride if it does not log everything. Nearly every ride has different data missing. Telling me “synced just recently” does not help 2 days later and not updated.
3. What is the point of showing fields in the activity if it never shows. Ascent and decent have never given a value . It shows altitude so why no ascent or decent.

Use this for fun, if you want to log rides use a cycle computer or cycle app far more reliable.

Come on Bosch you are supposed to be leaders in this technology. At the moment others give a far better user experience.
