Version 4.0 of this App has been verified to work with all versions of the iPhone and iTouch that run iOS 8 or newer. The iPad screen sizes are not supported, so it might run but will look odd.


How do I adjust the chirp volume?

Anytime this App is running you can adjusting the volume with the buttons on the left of the device. You should be able to plainly hear the volume change and you should be able to make the chirps quite loud.

If the chirps sound low to you they will also sound low to the treadmill. On most treadmills there is no reason to crank the volume way up. Most treadmills work just fine at the normal iPhone volume.

I tried numerous things including killing apps running in the background but turning off "Settings > Sounds > Lock Sounds", as shown in the picture below, fixed the problem. It stayed fixed when I turned Lock Sounds back on. Whatever...
