works with my Odin B600 exercise bike (some apps only work with a specific brand of equipment)
adjustable resistance, including on flat sections
display time, length of ride, speed, average speed, gradient, and height meters
Would very much prefer, but not dealbreakers:
real world routes
videos of routes with variable playback speed based on my pace
in absence of the above, ability to record data in the background rather than stop when I switch to another app
Nice to have but not necessary
FOSS or at least not too data-predatory
Apps I've tried so far
Kino: DEFINITELY my favorite so far, it has pretty much everything I want, but it's paid and my trial runs out soon
Trainerday: Freemium, free version doesn't fulfill the third hard requirement
MyWhoosh: ticks ALMOST all boxes, but the lack of variable resistance on flats is a dealbreaker and that combined with the overwhelmingly number of "rivals" to overtake at any moment had me overexerting myself to the point where I had to stop from both exhaustion and risk of injury after significantly less time/distance than I'm usually capable of

Do u have brake levers on your bike? When I bike outside, brakes and low tire pressure and fat tires are the main way to change resistance on flats. Maybe you can adjust the flat resistance by pressing the brake lever?
