ErgBuddy is an iOS application (designed to run on an Apple iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch) that displays performance data from your Concept2 Indoor Rower. ErgBuddy provides a large, bright display and is fully compatible with the iOS VoiceOver feature which means ErgBuddy can announce your performance data at regular intervals, making it an ideal training partner for the blind and visually impaired or when rowing in a dimly lit or dark room.

The app is now available to download from iTunes and the ANT receiver is available form the Concept2 Shop
