Autostop for Bike Exercises

For bike riders, autostop when stopped would be extremely useful. Otherwise average speed is affected if you forget to hit stop (or worse still, start again). Bit like the usefulness of starting and stopping sleep automatically, for the same reasons.

Even walkers would find that usefull. Sometimes if I am in a hurry, I forget to stop my walk when I get home. The other day my 'walk' continued when I was travelling to town in the car. It was quite impressive.

That's the way to get the miles up! But it's easily done. Fitbit autostops for sleep, and even knows when you're not wearing it when charging. Surely an easy and useful add-on for exercise. Most cycling apps do this.

I think that this is a great idea! I would be very useful and could be implemented also for other types of exercise! 

 

Thanks for stopping by! Woman Wink

I'm cycling every day and it's little annoying that I need manually end Cycling Exercise. Would be nice feature that stops automatically based on heart rate or something. Ot at least ask wether we would like to stop or not?
