My iPhone does not support ant+, but my android does, and since trainerroad doesn't support adroid, I can't use the power meter with trainerroad, what are you guys using for indoor training that has work out libraries like trainerroad?

Get the ANT+ Dongle from Wahoo and a cable to plug it into your iphone. 4c or older you can plug it directly into the phone.

iPbike works great indoors (and outdoors as well). Better yet, it has a virtual power estimation for Kurt Kinetic trainers (if you happen to have that trainer). It's pretty awesome. It's on Google Play (Android).

Garmin Edge does it all. Heart Monitor, Cadence, Powermeter, Strava. Turn the fan on, GCN on the TV and set it to 40 minute hill climb, pop the bike on the rollers, and ride.

Android iPbike on my Samsung Galaxy S4. I have a SC Ant + sensor and a Miolink wrist HRM. It's the same set up for riding outside.
As for 'inside' some, including me, have allergies which preclude riding during the spring months. Seventy-three years have taken its toll. I'm happy to be able to ride a bike, even if it is inside when the weather prevents going outside.

I am using the Wahoo Fitness Key sensor
Amazon.com: Wahoo Fitness Key for iPod/iPhone: Electronics
and I have it connected to the IPad using this adapter
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0097BEG08/
I considered some of the other uncorded adapters, but reviewers seemed to have problems with them flexing the lightning connection and failing.
