The system is not that good but I prefer to spend my time working on IpBike than trying to set up an alternative. It is at least good at keeping the spam away.

It is advisable to 'copy' before you try and post as the captcha stuff is a bit to agresive and the back buttone is not working for everyone.  You can at least then paste and have another go.

Pawel83 Posts: 3	Aug 05 2017, 16:14 I sold my Garmin edge 820 and returned to IpBike. IpBike + few other apps in my opinion covers most functionality of Edge 820. I miss one important function: Alert in case of crash. I see this this way: [When device "feel" high stress (from g-sensor) or weird side position, and in few seconds speed drops to zero, IpBike show pop-up window with alert which user can cancel in 30-60 seconds by long press of special button. If user didn’t react - device will send message to predefined contacts with alert and current position of user. I think that this would be unique and valuable features. In this video - I show how it works in Garmin (As You see - device will also generate sound alert) https://youtu.be/OiALryHwCxc My wife and daughter also will be really grateful If You consider this option Please give me feedback what do You think about this, If this is possible to handle in near future Have a nice day Last edit: Pawel83 Aug 05 2017, 16:16
