CrewNerd Lite app for iPhone and iPad

CrewNerd turns your cell phone into an on-the-water training tool in any rowing shell, canoe, kayak or dragon boat - with no wiring! With a waterproof case, you can get real-time data during your workout and even relay it to your coach.

Using the accelerometer in your device, CrewNerd is able to accurately calculate your stroke rate as well as how much bounce (vertical movement) and stern check you are producing. Speed, pace and distance are calculated via GPS.

NOTE: CrewNerd Lite works exactly like the full version but is limited to 100 strokes or 5 minutes of use each time you run the application. In CrewNerd Lite, you also have the option of eliminating the trial mode restrictions by purchasing a 30-day subscription which can be renewed indefinitely.

• Configurable display

In landscape mode there are up to six configurable data fields, and in portrait mode there are up to ten. Choose from the following:
• Stroke rate
• Elapsed time
• Distance
• Speed or pace
• Average speed or pace
• Heart rate
• Stroke count
• Interval count
• Meters per stroke
• Total distance
• Projected time and distance
• Check
• Bounce
• Course (direction)
• Time of day
• Distance to waypoint
• Time to waypoint (estimated)
• Course to waypoint

Set the top line to be double-height to make the most important data stand out. In portrait mode, the top two lines can both be made double-height.

• Custom workouts

Select from one of the provided workouts, or create your own based on distance, time or strokes. An auto-start feature starts the timer when the first stroke is taken, or you can set a “countdown” of 15 or 30 seconds before the timer starts to allow you to build up speed before starting a piece.

• Custom courses

Create custom by plotting your start and finish lines on a map. The application will start the timer automatically when you cross the start line and stop when you reach the finish. This is great for hands free operation in long distance races or for set routes you routinely use. You can also add waypoints, which help guide you through turns and other landmarks along the course. CrewNerd can give you course corrections to help you maintain a straight line between waypoints.

• Review your data

All workout data is recorded and can be reviewed on the device or uploaded directly to Strava, Concept2, TrainingPeaks, Sportlyzer, or the Apple Health app. You can also export data as GPX, KML, TCX, or CSV. You can view a map of your workout or view an interval data chart with configurable distance markers showing split times on your phone.
