Android App with Cadence Display

I've got an Android phone running 4.4 (CyanogenMod 11) with BLE capability and a Bluetooth LE speed/cadence sensor (Jarv). Does anyone know of an app that will show my cadence during a ride? I've tried several and am getting frustrated.

-- edit--

Note that I can get several apps: RideWithGPS and Strava, to "see" the cadence sensor. However, there is no way, that I can determine, to have the app prominently display my cadence or to have it provide it via voice feedback. I also cannot see how to access the data ex-post-facto except by writing my own code to extract it from the recorded data. Having to code my own seems to really limit the value of apps that seem to all beg for about $60 per year!

Since the ability to calculate gear from speed and cadence is obvious, the ability to look at gear choices after the fact would be nice. Is there anything that does this? For reasonable close to free?

<inchoate>SCREAM!</inchoate> Ahh, feel better now.

I have been using this app for the past several months with the same sensor. Works great for me and shows everything you need and you can customize the layout to fit your needs. When using bluetooth you also neeed to download the sensor man app also. You can upload data to several sites to look at later.

Shot in the dark, but have you tried Wahoo Fitness with it? At first glance Wahoo Fitness seemed like it was just for Wahoo products. But I notice it works fine with my Polar H7. Which means it might be compatible with your Jarv speed/cadence sensor.

I also use the Wahoo fitness app. I would be willing to bet money that it will work with your sensor. They update the app pretty regular and it just seems to get better and better.
