  Xert EBC was the first one, but now it is available in the App Store, so no need to side load it.

  I have APK Pure, which allows to install apk without having to use USB, which is handy, then installed

  Google Maps

  TrailForks (but GPS does not seem to work)

  Wahoo App

  Zwift Companion (which is very handy to use when Zwifting)

  I really don't see any advantage yet to side load apps on Karoo, since I have also an android phone where apps run better, larger screen etc. And I always carry my phone on a ride.

  Only if they have a direct integration with the device apps, then I will consider to use apps on the device.

  None, because I have an iPhone.

  When the stability of the HH OS becomes a reality, and with the cellular capability.  If there were a text messaging app, and a dedicated SOS text/phone app, then having to take your phone with you becomes redundant.

  Screenshot touch - to take snapshots of the screen should I need to post it here for issues reporting, etc.

  @MartinB I was going to ask about a screen shot app, not sure why the functionality is not there with the Karoo long press on power button. Screenshot Touch works well?

  Ah, I forgot, DropBox

  @Marco, yeah works fine. I've tested few and this app seems to be working well on karoo.

  I installed Ripit, a simple but good app for workouts. It works also with my cardio band and sends the status change to the audio speaker.

  Hi y'all - pls throw all your votes on a single thread / feature request, otherwise it will be diluted in votes and never be considered, I'm afraid. This is what past HH practice has shown, unfortunately.
