VeloPal

VeloPal is one of the indispensable apps for cyclists. With this iPhone client, you can track your current location, determine your altitude, distance traveled, calories burned along the way, measure speed and time.

The app is not only for cyclists but also for runners.

iBiker

The main difference from the applications mentioned above is the interaction with a large number of accessories that do not support even the most serious programs. The functions are mainly the same as those of the aforementioned applications: determination of time, speed, path length, calories burned, drawing up graphs with diagrams and so on. In addition to accessories, iBiker also supports wearable computers, in particular Polar, Adidas, Fitbit, Jawbone UP, BLE Foot Pod. The client can "take" data from other programs, for example, RunKeeper or MyFitnessPal.
