comment: batch update
** I found some smoothing and rounding of the pace data, but not much.
** Occasionally I'll find the watch won't detect the Stryd at the start of the run. In those situations, I have to go into settings, sensors, Stryd, and select "connect", which time the watch connects fine and the connection persists when I go back to start the activity.
** Note '''Warning: there are credible reports that the Fenix 5 and 5S (but not the 5X) have Ant+ connectivity issues. I'd recommend connecting them as Bluetooth Footpods, which means you will not get the Connect IQ support'''.
* [[Polar V800]], [[Polar M400]], [[Polar M430]]
** Pair as a normal footpod. Settings -> General Settings -> Pair and Sync -> Pair Other Device -> select Stryd. Then go to Settings -> Sports profiles -> Running -> Stride Sensor. Calibration=manual, factor = 1.0, sensor for speed=Stride Sensor.
** '''Warning: The V800 does not work properly with both Stryd and a heart rate monitor. This looks like a bug that hopefully Polar will fix soon'''.
** Remember this is using Bluetooth, so if you have a problem it might be because the Stryd is still linked to your phone.
** You can set the M400/M430/V800 to give distance and pace from footpod, while recording GPS tracks. The menu just says "speed source" but it sets distance as well. The menu talks about "stride sensor" as that's what the Polar footpod is called.
