This follows existing support for treadmills from other manufacturers.
As previously promised, Peloton has added additional third-party device support to its smartphone and tablet app.
Having already enabled the use of the app with treadmills from other manufacturers, the smart fitness firm has now included Bluetooth connectedrowing machinesto its list of compatible kit.
Only exercise bikes remain omitted from the list as Peloton continues to make good on its promise to expand the app and service’s reach.
As withtreadmills, rowing machines from other makers need to come with Bluetooth FTMS support in order to connect with the Peloton App. You also need to be a Pelton App+ or All-Access member to use it.
When connected, your rower will work in similar fashion to Peloton’s own – you’ll be able to capture and store stroke rate, strokes, pace and distance. These will be assigned to your profile during or after a workout.
It’s each to connect your device to the Peloton App, just open the app and begin a Tread or Row class, select “Connect a Bluetooth Device”, and select your third-party treadmill or rower from the list that pops up. You’ll get a green checkmark if successful.

Milestone reminders
Also recently added to the Peloton mobile app are milestone reminders.
Peloton Bike,Treadand Row owners will already be familiar with them, as they have already been available through the built-in tablet on each, but they are new to the app.
I personally like seeing what milestones are approaching (when on the Bike) so I can ensure I am in one of my favourite class types when I reach it.
