asensei + Concept 2 RowErg
The asensei app is compatible with the Concept 2 RowErg rowing machine with a PM5 monitor (as shown in the image below). The PM5 is the only performance monitor from Concept 2 to support bluetooth connectivity but this is standard on all recent RowErg, model D and model E rowing machines and can also be retrofitted to any Concept 2 model.
Note, If you are using an Oartec rowing machine such as the DX it is possible to retrofit a Concept 2 PM5 to your machine and then connect it to asensei.
asensei + WaterRower
The asensei rowing app is compatible with WaterRowers. The following WaterRower devices can connect to the top-rated asensei rowing app:
- WaterRower with an S4 Performance Monitor and a Bluetooth ComModule add-on (sold separately).
- WaterRower with a S4 Bluetooth Performance Monitor - has Bluetooth connectivity built in. As of 2025 many WaterRower models come equipped with this by default.
-
WaterRower Performance Ergometer with PowerPulley. Only the more recent, Performance Ergometer models have the PowerPulley, which comes with built in Bluetooth that can connect directly to the asensei rowing app.
Older Performance Ergometer models only connect to the SmartRow app directly and are not compatible with asensei rowing.

Requires asensei rowing app build 1.12.0 (1424) or higher.
asensei + WaterRower Original SmartRow/Performance Ergometer
Note that the asensei rowing app will not connect to the older WaterRower SmartRow (also known as the WaterRower performance ergometer).
The original SmartRow system requires two mobile devices (phones or tablets) in order to connect to 3rd party apps, with the first one connecting directly to the SmartRow via Bluetooth, running the SmartRow app which then rebroadcasts to the second device, running the 3rd party app (asensei rowing does not currently support this configuration nor the older model SmartRow performance ergometer).
asensei + Rogue Echo Rower
Dec 2024 sees asensei bring support for the new Rogue Echo Rowing machine (requires app build 1.20.3). Renowned for their Crossfit gear, Rogue have created this robust rowing machine gathering great reviews and it looks set to prove popular amongst the Crossfit community - already being the The Official Rower of CrossFit & the CrossFit Games.
To connect, start your workout in the asensei app, when you get to the connection screen turn on the Rogue Echo rower, select CONNECT and press the SELECT button. The asensei rowing app should find the Rogue Echo rower, connect automatically, then proceed to the remainder of the workout. For more information see this article: asensei rowing is now compatible with the Rogue Echo Rower!
asensei + FluidRower
Another new rowing machine compatible with asensei is the FluidRower with a Bluetooth console. Made by First Degree Fitness these rowing machines have a variety of different model names. You should lookout for the Bluetooth symbol at the bottom of the console, as shown in the image below.
