A while back I asked about what app to use on my cell phone that will let me track my mileage and time. Endomondo was suggested by a lot of people and I installed in on my phone. It works pretty well (not perfect, but still good). While playing around with it the other day, I noticed that it can display data from external sources: Heart Rate Monitors, Cadence Sensors, etc... So, I put on my HRM cheststrap and tried to get it to connect. It won't. It keeps looking for a bluetooth device. I thought that maybe my HRM strap was a bluetooth device, but it can't find it.

For what it is worth, I have a Mio watch with HRM (Energy Pro). When I use the watch, the HRM works. When I try to get endomondo to see the HRM, no good. Any suggestions?

-Thanks, Ken

I still can't get this to work.... It's been a while, so I figured that I'd bump it up and see if anyone responds this time around...

EDIT: Aargh... Of course, this time I was able to find it on Google:

Heart rate support: Polar Wearlink® + transmitter with Bluetooth® and Zephyr heart rate monitor

So, I guess it won't work with a Mio HRM.

It also works with HRM's that use the ANT protocol, such as the ones made by Garmin.
