ANT Forum

Hi

How I can check compatibility of SE Xperia Active or Xperia ARC S and heart sensor, and speed, cadence sensor Geonaute from Decathlon? I must install application like Endomondo who supports this accesories or I can check without it.?

Regards;)      

You find the directory of ANT+ compatible products here:
http://www.thisisant.com/directory/

If your devices are listed here, they are certified as compatible.      

If not, I can test it in the shop?      

Well, if your shop lets you install the necessary apps (ANT radio service and a display app like e.g. Endomondo) on the phone and let you play around with your gadgetery, yes.
However, you shouldn't ask the forum members but your shop holder      

But I ask for easiest way to test compatibility.
From what I know Endomondo unfortunely doesn't support speed and cadence sensors with ANT technology.      

Then search Google Play store with the buzzword "ANT"; there are several apps that support speed/cadence as I remember; I just don't remember which ones. But these should be very easy to find.

Compatibility depends on the sensor being ANT+ and the App having support for the appropriate device profile.

There is a Geonaute combined speed and cadence sensor that is not ANT+ you should be careful to check for the ANT+ logo. It will work in IpBike but I had to add specific code for it and it can not be recommended. I believe the Geonaute separate speed and cadence and HR sensors are all OK.      

If there anyway to know if phone supports ANT+ by software?
