So there are a ton of threads about garmin vs AWU I dont see any about apps that can help garmin users make the transition to the Ultra.

I am trying out the ultra and am looking for apps that can make it as much like the fenix as possible. I realize that the metrics that the fenix provides are head and shoulders above the ultra but what apps can make it "feel like home"? Thanks!

My recommendation to you is don't buy the Ultra. Trying to make any device behave like another is usually going to fail.
Makes sense. There are things that can make garmin users like the watch more that we may not know

as the Ultra still wont talk to my bikes ANT+ stuff, she wont replace my Garmin. Dont get me wrong.. i love my AWU, but those devices can not replace each other, they rather complement pretty good, i'd say.

Maybe apple will start making cycle power meters. Could be that they are just testing the running power feature first.

I am using the stryd app + athlytic app. That's basically all you need + music..., Apple Pay, phone, messages...
