Training Device Compatibility List Keeps Growing

We are now compatible with iBike .csv files and single workout .hst and .tcx (Garmin) files.

While we're on the subject...

We have spent years improving our systems to make it easier and easier to upload data from the latest workout devices. Just last week, we improved the back-end processing systems again, and in doing so realized that we now support 21 file formats, from 11 different Device Manufacturers. The first device output file we supported was from the PowerTap, in 2001. Since then, we have worked to add more and more devices to our supported device list.

Here's a full summary of our supported device file formats:

We currently see thousands of files uploaded every day, with well over a million files total. When we first added this feature to the site, it was a novelty. People often asked us, why? As uploadable devices are getting more and more common, we're sure there will be more and more devices and we'll keep updating our compatibility list to stay current with the latest technology.

The File Viewer has made uploading even better, with fully interactive maps and graphs. Click below to see what I mean:

Remember, you can also directly upload via the free Device Agent too.

Thanks for adding the iBikePro to the list of Macintosh supported devices. Does your Device Agent now also work for this product? I'm thinking of getting an iBikePro, using it indoors this winter for training. Thanks, Len

The Windows Device Agent does work for iBike, but the Mac Device Agent has not yet been updated to directly download iBike. I don't have a good time-frame on when we'll get iBike added to the Mac Device Agent.
