You can do that on any modern Android system by overlaying/stacking STRide App with other apps. STRide has the "transparent background" mode.

STRide v2 Beta Update (for Android)
The application has been completely rewritten on a multiplatform engine. Functionality and UI are now identical on iOS and Android.
Wear OS Support: Added session management (start, stop, record), real-time metrics display, and heart rate data transmission to the session record.
Wear OS Layout Editor: Added an editor to customize the metrics display layout on the watch.
Multiple Bike Profiles: Added support for configuring multiple bicycles. Available settings include drivetrain parameters, wheel circumference, speed correction coefficient, and battery capacity (Wh).
Power Consumption Metric: Added calculation of average power consumption based on battery capacity (Wh) and the percentage of battery used.
Current Gear Calculation: Added real-time gear estimation using drivetrain data (front chainring, cassette parameters) and wheel circumference.
Assist Mode Usage: Added calculation of assist mode usage percentage per session (recorded only when the motor is active).
ANT+ Sensors: Support has been temporarily removed. It may be re-implemented in future updates based on user demand.
Beta Access: Version 2 is currently in Beta testing on Android. To update, join the Beta program on the STRide Google Play page.
Wear OS Installation: Install the STRide app directly on the watch.
Data Migration: Upon the first launch, the app will notify you to migrate previously recorded and imported sessions to the new version. This migration can also be initiated manually at any time via Settings -> Maintenance.

Stride App 1.20.84
Wear App 2.0.107
How does pairing work? I have the app on my watch, and when I open it, I get a message saying "Open on phone." tap on it does nothing (the app is running + paired with the Bike) Do I need to pair the watch with the Stride app on my phone?
Thanks

There seems to be a problem. I signed up for the beta (Google confirmed it) and I got version 1.20.84 installed.

Hi vadll
Any ideas?
I'd love to support the beta test, but I only have version 2 on my watch, and I can't install version 2 for my phone.
Phone is Android 9.
Google is only offering me version 1.20 as a beta version.(the Photo above)
Downloadlink for the apk V2 ?

Bluetooth HRMs are supported
Hello,
I just installed version 2. I completely uninstalled my old version. The speed display on the screen remains at zero, but the cadence is displayed correctly, and the arcs on the side are working. I have a Xiaomi 9T running Android 11, an E7000 screen, and an upgraded E8000 motor.
Any ideas? Thanks, have a good day.

No. Would be nice to see screenshots/screen recordings
BTW, There is no need to uninstall the old version - you will lose your recorded and imported sessions.
Thanks for the new version - would you have any idea what i do wrong? app ver 2.0.112, installed WearOs app on my Galaxy watch, checked permission, both app on the phone and on watch have rights to read pulse. yet, there is no pulse coming through. How to check that it is connected? Thanks!

You have to start the connection with a bike from watch to see the pulse

I ran into the same issue and debugged it a bit. The bug is coming from "Default bike settings" -> "Real rear wheel size". If you change it from the default 27.5+" to something else like 29", the speedometer dies and it won't come back even if you restore the 27.5+" setting. You have to go to the app settings and clear storage — i.e., clean all app settings.
Leaving it untouched (even if it says the wrong wheel size) seems to still give correct-looking numbers.

Thanks for the feedback. Please check the new 2.0.120 version

Oh, super quick fix, thanks! Seems to work now. I think the wheel size was selected by default, whereas a multiplier would be more natural.
Yet, I found another issue with the .fit file timestamps. According to the Garmin specification, FIT Epoch timestamps must be in UTC. However, STRide seems to store local time instead.
This causes issues when trying to sync the data with GoPro videos using gopro-dashboard.py. Since GoPro stores its telemetry in UTC, the mismatch makes syncing very difficult. My current workaround is to manually shift the timestamps to UTC and regenerate the .fit file, which fixes the sync issue completely.
Could you update the export to use UTC timestamps? Here is the Garmin spec for reference: Cookbook | FIT SDK | Garmin Developers
