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.

Hi, been using IPBike for about 3 years, never had it before. During a long ride I've lost the sensors (HR, SPD+CAD). It was around 7 hours ride and I've lost it at around 3 hrs. I was using IPBike and Garmin Edge 500 at the same time paired to the same sensors. No problem with Garmin reading and communicating with sensors.
There was a message on the screen 'lost sensors' or something similar, but I was in woods and thought that's about bad GPS reception. Later have noticed that HR and cadence fields disappeared from the screen and after importing it to a computer I've noticed that there was obviously no sensors reading since it happened. The HR stuck at 121, cadence at 0. Please find a screenshot below:

Any idea why it happened?
Kind regards,
Greg

I have more or less the same situation. I started using IpBike 2-3 years ago during spinbike winter sessions and it always worked and connected smoothly.
Only during the last weeks it has a lot of troubles connecting to both Garmin HRM and Cadence Sensor. I checked the batteries and they are OK.
Phone: Samsung Galaxy A3 - Android 6.0.1

On a 4 hour bike ride, suddemtly I lost ,y power cadence and Hr.. All at same time. Power and cadence are given by the P1pedals, but the heart rate is from another sensor, so it coudn't be batteries.
I stoped the ride, cloed IPBIke, started ipsensor and was unable to find the sensors.. Only after I reboot the phone, where the sensor active again. Nothing else changed.
When I lost the sensors, I was riding alonge, not switching anything on the screen. It seams that the phone lost it's ANT+ capability.
I have done longer rides without any problem, and there have been no updates for the phone (Samsung J5) for quite some time
