I had no intention of using the Echelon app simply because 99% of it's functionality is tailored toward having a subscription. As soon as I saw the freestyle window as a full screen ad with a tiny stats bar at the bottom, I knew that app was coming off. There's supposed to be a way to re-load the Echelon app if you want to keep using it but I haven't figured that out yet.
I paid for the qdomyos-zwift app off the Amazon appstore and installed that on the tablet instead. It has a relatively basic interface but displays all the important info I need (cadence, speed, resistance level, etc.). It's also able to interact with the Peleton app if desired, which I hear good things about. For now, I have Plex & YouTube Vanced loaded on the tablet and run that with the qdomyos-zwift app in the background or in split screen.
EDIT: I was finally able to re-load the Echelon app after following step 5 on post 532 [xda-developers.com]. Installing the app this way allows you to do everything the stock Echelon app would (including update the bike itself) but will not firmware update the tablet and lock it back down in the process.

it shows you how to hack the echelon tablet to install the apps you like, and also to split the screen to display qdomyos-zwift and peleton app together, so you can enjoy the peleton app with a more reasonable monthly fee

Also as a side note, you will need to install adb on your computer in order to send some commands to the tablet. I would also recommend using the power adapter and connecting directly to the tablet and having it next to your computer during the entire process rather then mounting it to the bike.
IC4 from Schwinn literally advertises you can use the bike with Peloton.
Did you have to do this, or is there a way to bypass activation? Also, are the instruction for the youtube hack on the other thread?
Doubt.

I already ordered IC4 from Bestbuy but now in two minds

According to this video, it should be good for people up to 6'5".

This bike is magnetic resistance, so it's mostly silent.

I ordered Schwinn Fitness IC4 from target for 450 plus tax.
Which is better value for money between Schwinn Fitness IC4 from Costco for 499.99 and Schwinn Fitness IC4 from target for 450?
Thanks!
