Apple watches & phones only allow 3 active bluetooth connections if I remember correctly. Those that use this likely also pair a wheel speed sensor, cadence sensor (ie: crank rotations per minute), heart rate meter, and power meter (accurate measurement of power outputted by legs). Bikes with electronic shifting also will allow display of which gear you're in. Some electronic shifters have accessory buttons that can be mapped to functions on this device - ie: you can 'turn the page' without taking your hands off the grips. And of course - this can all be recorded / archived / uploaded.
Additionally, you're paying for software designed around and dedicated to cycling.
Having said that - I personally pair a heart rate meter, cadence sensor, and slickdeal earbuds to my iphone for rides. But I also only go on ~1hr rides on a $500 bike in basketball shorts....I'm not the target audience for a product like this.
