Our new enTrainer 1.2 version allows you to customize and save your Target Cadence presets. For example, you can set separate paces for warm-up, jogging and running. Then easily switch between them during your run.

The cadence measurement has been completely re-worked and you don’t need to do anything to see it displayed. It now is shown on the main music player view. You will see it next to the “Tempo” setting of the song being played. When Tempo = Cadence, it feels good! Simple, eh?

This also means that the Adaptive Sync – now called “Music Follow Me” feature works much better now, more responsive and natural. You’ll also see a change in the display when it you use it.

Finally, the distance measurements and other stats are more accurate, and behave well with the “smart pausing” feature.

It is rare that users already have BPM data in their iTunes library.

enTrainer’s automatic Beat Detection feature will calculate the tempo of each song in your playlist just as a song starts to play. It may take 5 seconds or so to complete this task, which is why you may notice a change in speed once the calculation completes.

enTrainer strives for accuracy, however some music is challenging. Fortunately, the best music for your activity usually has a steady and pronounced beat anyway, so you should hear excellent results.

The song’s tempo will be displayed once the BPM calculation is complete.

The “ratio” shows you how much the music is slowed down or sped up to match your target cadence.
