Bipolar (and V800 Downloader) with Vantage V3

[roesassi]

Hi, this is not an issue, but more sharing a small piece of information.

After more than 8 years on a couple of V800, I just got a fresh Vantage V3. In case you might wonder if the Bipolar hook still works (as it still does on my V800), the short answer is nope.

The AppData\Local\Polar\PolarFlowSync\export forder now contains only the file "v2-users-275367-activities" and Bipolar obvisouly says there is no new session to convert.

V800 Downloader on the other hand says "Failed to open device!"

Also, using FlowSync (on Windows 11) I now received everytime the following pop up:

Have a nice week end

Thanks @roesassi. As they're sunsetting FlowSync (as per your screenshot), I guess Bipolar will become useless when that happens. As I understand it, the Flow App is mobile (iOS and Android) only, so I won't be able to port Bipolar's hook to work there (not without a huge amount of effort / hackery anyway).

I'll add a relevant summary notice to the project's README.md file soon.

Honestly, I'm impressed that Bipolar has remained at least somewhat useful for this long 😊

Cheers.
