About
RowEdge - Outdoor Rowing App for Garmin Edge
An open-source Connect IQ app that turns Garmin Edge cycling computers into outdoor rowing performance computers.

Outdoor rowing has very few sport performance computers. The dominant product (NK SpeedCoach GPS, $400+) is expensive and limited. Meanwhile, many athletes already own a Garmin Edge for cycling. RowEdge repurposes it for rowing with features specific to the sport.
