2. Connect direct to Treadmills

RunSocial is proud to directly connects to treadmills from Life Fitness, Bowflex, Landice, Star Trac and Woodway.

With bluetooth “On” in your Apple or Android device, select "Treadmill connect" in the RunSocial app Speed Tracking menu. Then, if you are using any of the following treadmills, simply tap on the treadmill’s bluetooth signal to connect:

  • Bowflex T616, E616, T618 and E618 treadmills
  • Landice treadmills with Cardio or Executive Control Panels
  • Woodway 4Front
  • Life Fitness Track Connect
  • Star Trac 8-TRx and 8-TR

If you are using Life Fitness’ Discover series tap on "Connect with QR code" and point your device camera at the Life Fitness QR code (see video for demo). You can also connect with Life Fitness’ inbuilt connector on the Discover and Track+ consoles.

All models above provide direct speed connectivity.

3. Connect to wearable sensors

RunSocial on Apple devices can also connect to wearable tracking sensors that send "RSC" run data using Bluetooth Smart (also known as Bluetooth Low Energy or BLE).

RSC is a Bluetooth standard for "Running Speed and Cadence" data. Examples include Polar's Stride Sensor Bluetooth Smart (www.polar.com) and the MilestonePod (www.milestonepod.com) which are both pod sensors you attach to your shoe.

4. Manual if you need it

For manual we don't track you. You set the speed. It's easy to use - once in the video, just swipe the screen. You can also tap the + / - buttons.

You can use your iPad screen

If your fitness machine console cannot support your iPad or your iPad tends to bounce around as you exercise, our unique PadGrip iPad holder can help.

However, if you are using your phone or just want a bigger image

RunSocial is designed for it. This means when you connect your Apple device to a TV screen, the screens are not just duplicated; the TV will display your video route and your device will become a control panel.

It's awesome - try it!

Ways to Connect to TV

  1. Connect via HDMI; you’ll need Apple’s HDMI adaptor.
  2. Connect via Apple TV. Please note that performance will depend on the WiFi router
    you use. We recommend Apple’s Airport Extreme.
