The Official BLEvo Thread

[VaseLEVO]

@PaoloBLEvo,
I bought the app a while ago, but I don't see a user guide and an easy step by step guide with explaination of what the parameters mean would be great. Can you add one we can download or open a thread on here with instructions you can update when the app is updated?

could you also create some useful user setting defaults like they have in mission control?

@PaoloBLEvo this is what I get when I try to share to Strava:

Sorry, but I don't understand your question..

@Rob Hancill there should be a nnn.GPX attachment (mine appears right at the bottom of the email sent from BLEvo) which you save locally and then upload to Strava. I use an x too and it works for me...

EDIT: Just seen your further post...

My process is to hit the "send GPX" (which composes an email with all the textual data AND the GPX attachment) and then save to the computer and upload to Strava from there.... (you can actually do it all from the phone if you save the GPX from the email to cloud storage and then upload to strava from the same place)

Perfect, thanks mate. Sorted

It is better to use the tcx file, because in this file there is also the biker power, not present in the gpx file..

Thanks. What about HR? Does that get uploaded to a strava too?

Yes sure.. also cadence..

Can’t wait to get the iOS version ?

 

[PaoloBLEvo]

Can’t wait to get the iOS version ?

Under testing.. today I found some bugs..
The new release will be postponed in 2 or 3 days..
Sorry

Noticed on my ride with BLEvo that often in spotty GPS reception sections the speed does not display. But in Mission Control its always available. Can you perhaps use the last known value in the last x amount of time or calculate from wheel speed perhaps so we can just look down and see relatively accurate measurement?

Are you talking about iOS or Android version?

 

[VaseLEVO]

iOS version.

 

[PaoloBLEvo]

iOS version.

Do you mean that the Speed is not shown correctly in the bike monitor? Sorry, but I don't understand the issue..

 

[VaseLEVO]

Do you mean that the Speed is not shown correctly in the bike monitor? Sorry, but I don't understand the issue..

It show zero ( 0 ) mph. While mission control is showing 12 mph for example. It seems the GPS reception is the issue because I noticed GPS was showing red. Then it gets reception and suddenly speed shows. Mind you at same time your cycling speed rpm is showing, so my question is if you are relying on GPS, and it is spotty, can you instead use the rpms to calculate the speed then sample the GPS when it is available? It may have been coincidence, but that was my immediate conclusion. Has no one else noticed this, or is there a sensitivity setting I can adjust so it samples maybe a little less frequently so speed always shows?

 

[Kimmoi]

There is an issue with GPS on IOS(or iPhones) i think. My iPhone 8 did the same all the time, i bought old Sony Experia to do the job. No issues with Android.
Android version is better in every aspect in my opinion.

Could you try to use the data coming from the bike and not from the GPS? There is a configuration for this...

What is the issue in the GPX?
I will check tonight...

Sorry.. I read GPX and not GPS..
In the next release I will review the GPS accuracy..

Can some one tell me. Do you need to be conected to your mobile for the sipped limiter to be removed or do you just have to deactivate it once and it's off all of the time.

Just activate once and it remain without smartphone connected..

Google Blevo Guide and it will point you in the right direction

Will BLEvo work with the 2019 Levo's?

Do you have a Levo 2019 to test it?

HAHAHA, i wish
But no rumors regarding blocking of third party apps?

 

[PaoloBLEvo]

HAHAHA, i wish

I asked to Specialized, but I didn't received any answer...
We will test when the bikes will be available...
Some rumors say that there will be a new App to handle the new bike, but I think (and I hope) is a fake rumor... But we will see...
May be Specialized takes so many time to release the new version of Mission Control due to adding the handling of new bike.. But I don't know... these are only suppositions...

 

[ccrdave]

I think something is coming called flex mode which from what i have been told is like Blevo smart control

Apple is releasing iOS 12 beta version this week. Who is going to test it?
