What OBB does

Your band is a pro running sensor. OBB sets it free.

Section titled “Your band is a pro running sensor. OBB sets it free.”

Your Xiaomi Mi Band, Garmin watch or Under Armour HOVR (Atlas) footpod already measures what premium pods measure — cadence, stride, and, in footpod mode, ground contact, vertical motion and foot-strike. The official apps keep that data locked inside. OmniBandBridge opens it up, live: to Zwift, to your watch, to your training platforms, to you.

How OmniBandBridge connects your sensors to your apps

Run in Zwift with the gear you own

OBB turns your Mi Band, Garmin watch or Under Armour footpod into a live running sensor for Zwift and any fitness app — cadence, speed and power over Bluetooth or LAN, indoors and out. No premium footpod required.

Stryd-class insight, budget price

In footpod mode the band streams ground contact time, flight time, foot-strike and vertical motion — the biomechanics serious runners pay hundreds for.

Power that is truly yours

OBB doesn’t guess a generic wattage: it computes metabolic power from speed, grade and your own physiology, learned workout after workout. Your zones. Your thresholds. Your engine.

One bridge, every source

Mi Band on wrist or shoe, Garmin watches (via the free OmniBandBridge Connect IQ data field or Virtual Run), Stryd or any RSC footpod, FTMS treadmills, HR straps, GPS with offline elevation maps — OBB fuses whatever you have into one coherent run.

Your data, your files

Every session saved as TCX / CSV / FIT with the advanced metrics included — one tap to Strava, intervals.icu, Garmin Connect, Health Connect.

Private by design

Local-first. Workouts live on your phone, not our servers. Even the AI diary runs against a model you choose, on your network.

  • It’s the only bridge of its kind. No other app unlocks the Mi Band’s live footpod stream — not the official one, not the open-source alternatives.
  • It’s a lab, not just a logger. Segment analysis, grade-aware power, running economy, personal performance model, HR zones — the numbers get smarter as you train.
  • It plays with everything. Standard profiles in and out (RSC, FTMS, HR, cycling power, DirCon/TCP) mean OBB fits the gear you already own — from a smart treadmill to a Garmin watch.
  • Free at the core. OBB is free to use; an optional Supporter tier adds conveniences and keeps development running.
