On the 'truth' post they said 'We are also finalizing the ANT+ software that makes Karoo compatible with both Bluetooth and ANT+ sensors.'
On Bookface they've said 'An imminent software update should see full ANT+ connectivity before the vast majority of customers receive their Karoos.' which to me means that at the moment ANT+ connectivity isn't working.
Ant+ is not a complicated protocol, most ant+ chips have the software stack included so this makes me curious. I wonder if they’ve decided to write their own ant+ stack?
Not sure. They seem to claim it's no big deal, which makes me wonder why they've left it until after starting to ship production units to get round to doing it. ANT+ on Android is after all hardly novel.
