Connection with Bosch devices via eBike Connect account
If you own a Bosch Nyon or a Bosch Kiox, you have the option to use your komoot Tours on your Bosch devices. Additionally, you can sync back your completed Tours to your komoot account. For this to work you'll need to set up the connection as explained in this article.
Attention: Learn how to set up connection to Kiox 300 here: Connection with Bosch Kiox 300
Note: Tours can only be transferred to Bosch if the region in which the Tour starts is unlocked in komoot.
How to set up the connection
In order for the connection to work you need to have a komoot as well as an eBike Connect account. In case you don't already have an eBike Connect account, you will need to create one on the Bosch website. Establish the connection either via the Bosch website or the eBikeConnect app.
- Log in to your eBike Connect account via the Bosch website
- Click on "Route Planning"
- Select "My Routes"
- You’ll see the option to “Connect with komoot” on the left side
- Confirm to set up the connection by tapping "Yes, continue"
- You’ll be directed to the komoot website where you need to enter your komoot account credentials and login to your account
- Allow Bosch access to your komoot account by clicking Grant Access
Now the connection is established.
- Log in to your Bosch eBike Connect app
- Click on "More"
- Select "Settings"
- Toggle the komoot switch under Connected Apps
- You’ll be directed to the komoot website where you need to enter your komoot account credentials and login to your account
- Allow Bosch access to your komoot account by clicking Grant Access
Now the connection is established.
Attention: To ensure you are establishing the connection to the same komoot account, that you are using on the phone, please compare the used email address in your komoot profile settings in the app: Profile > Settings () > Profile Information.
Transferring Tours between komoot and Bosch Nyon and Kiox
All your planned komoot Tours will be available in the Bosch portal after establishing the connection to komoot. You will find the Tours on the Bosch Website under "Route Planning" > "My Routes".
Once your Nyon is connected to WiFi the Tours will automatically be transferred with the next synchronization. In case you use the Kiox, the synchronization will take place as soon as the Smartphone is connected to WiFi. To manually start the synchronization on your device, click on the double arrow symbol.
All on the device completed Tours, that were created after connecting your accounts, will be transferred back to komoot automatically, as soon as an internet connection is established via WiFi.
Note: Only activities longer than 500m will be uploaded to komoot and only routes shorter than 240km will be transferred from komoot to Bosch.
Tip: In the Bosch privacy setting on the website, you can choose if you prefer to upload your activities as "Rides" which might upload your Tour in different segments eg. when you took longer breaks on the Tour. By selecting "Trips" multiple activities are combined.
Navigating komoot Tours on Nyon and Kiox
You’ll find the synced komoot Tours on your device under “Map & Navigation” > “Saved Routes”. All your komoot routes will have “komoot” written in front of the title of the Tour. Follow the instructions on the device to start the Tour.
Note: The navigation instructions are done by Bosch.
Disconnecting komoot from Bosch devices
