OneWheeler Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Hello, Need your advice: Going to buy a KS16S. Which iOS (preferred) or Android App will work, which disadvantages do they have. Please no guesses, only experiences with KS16S. Thanks a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneWheeler Posted July 17, 2017 Author Share Posted July 17, 2017 Bought one. Will come this week. App seems not to be neccessary. Better than expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mine hopefully, too! you'll need the original ks app to unlock the speed limit once and to set alarms and tilt back. Also for future firmware updates. just current and speed imho changed from unsigned to signed (forward and backward riding is distinguished), but the app does not support this by now. there are good chances that gyrometrics ( former 9bmetrics) supports this - its also nice for logging all the wheels data of a ride, in case you are interested in this.

OneWheeler Posted July 18, 2017 Author Share Posted July 18, 2017 Next week I'll get a used Android mobile from a colleague. The Android app seems to be more up to date (hopefully) than the iOS one. This gives me the possibility to compare both apps. (Wien? Muss ich auch noch mal hin mmh, ca. 1.000 km ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneWheeler Posted July 29, 2017 Author Share Posted July 29, 2017 Testet the KS app on iOS and Android with my KS16S: both work fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrelwood Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 The official KingSong app works fine on iPhone6 running iOS 10.3.2, and has connected dozens of times without a fault. Darknessbot and Gyrometrics both connect, but IIRC both show some values way off. Not updated to the 16S I think. Gyrometrics needs a few tricks to connect for the first time, but after that it connects automatically. You have to disconnect the KS app before connecting with Darknessbot. The official app is the one I use as I tend to switch the riding mode occasionally, and don't really need other info than battery level and distance travelled.

The official app is the one I use most often, I just like to see total distance and battery level also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
