I'm a new user of the Polar V800
Welcome! :smile:
and would indeed like to autosync the PolarFlow entries to Strava but it seems I'm not completely getting how to enable this via the Bipolar tool.
Just to be clear, Bipolar won't automatically upload to Strava (yet) - it exports to TCX, which you can then upload via the Strava website.
I'm using Windows 7 and would like to know if there is an .exe install file or MSI install file.
The .exe can be downloaded under the "releases" page (https://github.com/pcolby/bipolar/releases) - unfortunately the Github site doesn't make that link all too obvious.
The latest current release (0.3.1) exe is: https://github.com/pcolby/bipolar/releases/download/v0.3.1/Bipolar-0.3.1.520.exe
Also I've read that at some point a hook needs to be set by replacing a Qt5Network.dll file which sits into the PolarFlow install directory but the file it needs to be replaced by is not within the downloaded zip file.
The zip file you downloaded was the source code only, so no Qt5Network.dll
file there.
If you download the .exe linked above, it will install both the Bipolar GUI application and the Qt5Network.dll
file for you automatically.
I'll put together a wiki page showing the step-by-step installation for new users soon. In the meantime, give the above .exe a go - its pretty basic and straight-forward.
Let me know if have still have trouble.
Cheers,

Paul,
I could indeed download the exe file and install it now. I’m keen to see the tool perform an auto update to Strava so I’ll keep an eye on updates ;)
So now that the Bipolar is installed I only need to Sync my Polar V800 to PolarFlow and run the Bipolar tool on my PC. Is that correct?
Regards, Kris

Am I missing something?
