Love this app - it’s fun and easy to use

I started on Zwift about two years ago as a cyclist. I bought a trainer specially having never tried the app which was a risky investment but was a great choice. I liove cycling on Zwift. I don’t feel safe on the road and I go further knowing only have top hop off the bike and I’m home. I had to give up cycling for the minute due to herniated disks (hoping to be back on the bike soon) so I bought a treadmill and started running with Zwift. I love it! I’ve never really enjoyed running before but the Zwift environment makes it enjoyable- i ran 65 miles this month! Training plans are good. I have no issues with app stability (using IPad). When you start it is hard to understand how it all fits together / there is the Zwift app (where you do the activity) but also the companion app where you organize everything - took me a while to make sense of that- but once you get going it’s excellent.

Bad metrics and limited routes

I quit riding to day mid ride. The metrics are a total joke! I picked a ride that was 7 miles long with 232 feet of elevation. They put the 232 hill challenge right at the start. I put in 7 miles on my Bowflex and only went 1.2 miles on Zwift and never saw the top of the hill. Total crap!!! I ride irl and have hills around me of 850 feet and it takes me about 10 minuets to get up them. I spent 25 minutes on Zwift and never got to the top of a 232 foot hill. 🤮🤮🤮🤮 there’s no way their metrics are even close to real life. I don’t need this app to ride!! I can do it on my own!! There also the fact they limit your choices of rides everyday. I PAY for all content. I should be able to access any ride any time any day I flipping want!!! It’s mine I paid for it!!! But nope. Zwift gives you limited choices of rides and only certain days you can access certain rides. What if I don’t train those days??? I won’t ever be able to ride half the routes I’m paying for then. Good bye Zwift. Enjoy the $$ you ripped out of me. You won’t get any more ever!!

Excellent cycling app

I have read a lot of the reviews and I honestly have not had any of the connection problems. At first, I attempted to stream from my phone to the TV but it was significantly delayed so I bought the Apple 4K and downloaded the app directly on the TV and no problems ever since. I use a Wahoo Kickr core trainer and a Wahoo armband HR monitor and I have never had connection issues. I love this app so much so that I get accused of having agoraphobia!My son, the gamer, feels the graphics are rudimentary compared to his video games so perhaps that is an issue that can be addressed. Also, there are times that my avatar will literally ride right thru someone which is unsettling and obviously not realistic.Overall, this app has changed the way I ride. You could never get me on a trainer for an hour prior to Zwift. Now, I often opt for the trainer rather than going outside!

Got charged for free trial a day early

I tried the free trial of this app and canceled it a day before the app said my trial expired but was charged anyway. I sent a message to customer service and never got a reply. I wanted to like this app and bought wahoo sensors for my spin bike so I can watch but even though my wahoo app instantly recognizes the sensors, the wahoo and companion app almost never does and when it does easily disconnects. I was only able to get it to work 2-3 times in the entire week of the free trial. I spent 40-50 min trying to connect it every time I tried to ride, which is longer than a workout would have been. Very disappointed both in the app and the service. It’s extremely clumsy using this and now I’ve paid $15 for an app that doesn’t work- trying to “wake up” the sensors doesn’t work and there should be a way to control the main app while sitting on your bike by using the companion app. Seems like this works well for people with smart trainers but people relying on separate speed and cadence sensors will probably not be able to use it consistently enough.

Not consistent

I bought a Wahoo trainer a month and a half ago and was super excited to try Zwift. I did about 3 great rides, and then did a calibration and it completely changed my experience. My avatar would barely move, and as someone else shared in a review, going up a 5 & 6 degree hill I couldn’t get past 4mph and got passed by a runner. In the “real world” I am actually quite good at hills. The trainer started to read the landscape incorrectly and all the pedaling could not let me advance…very different from my first experience. I’ve contacted customer service who have been responsive, but also not solution based. They’ve suggested doing a Wahoo calibration (I did 3/4 to no avail), deleting and downloading the app again, and logging in from a different device. I deleted my account and canceled my registration. Ideally, I’d like to try again, but have a strong feeling it will “remember” my trainer and the internal error that it (zwift) created. I’ve done a TON of research the last few days, but I guess just had to read the reviews, as Zwift developers should too, to fix these inopportune and unfortunate experiences.

3 Star

As far as when Zwift works, I would always give it a 5 star rating. However, getting zwift to work is always such a struggle. I have refrained from complaining for a long time, but I can’t hold back anymore as it is hard for me to be able to use the app every single time I try. The calibration freezes on the spin down, and sometimes I have to restart the app up to 10 times before it will complete to 0 MPH to complete (it usually freezes and stops at either 2 or 4 MPH, and will not complete) . Also, after the new update when I FINALLY did complete the spin down, I got on the map (Watopia) and started pedaling. When I started pedaling, all the sudden I was going 35 MPH, and it said my power output was 490 WATTS. I was barely spinning at a warmup pace, and no matter how many times I restarted/recalibrated it wouldn’t fix the power output error. Zwift has been such an amazing training tool, but it still feels like it’s in a test phase as far as development. Maybe instead of keeping on trying to give us new maps (we all want 24/7 watopia) try fixing all of the bugs the app has. Regardless of the issues I still LOVE the app and the program! I just want to be able to hop on and spin with ease!

Dropped out nearly every time I used it!

I had been using Rouvy or TrainerRoad with my Smart Trainer, but thought I’d give Zwift a try since our daughter and son in law are now using it. I’m not a big fan of the Virtual World, but was willing to give it a go. I should first point out that the firmware was up to date on my Hammer H3 and I ALWAYS run a calibration before riding any routes as part of my warmup routine. Right off I noticed absolutely NO synchronization between negative and positive grade changes. It was actually HARDER to pedal DOWNHILL than up hill. I have NEVER had such a blatant issue with either Rouvy or TrainerRoad. 50% of the time Zwift simply stopped in the middle of a ride leaving me scrambling to keep my workout going. Seems it lost contact with the trainer and my HR monitor, something that has never happened with the other Apps. Another peeve is Zwift only shows the grade changes in graph form as you progress, not of what’s ahead whereas Rouvy and TrainerRoad display the grade/resistance profile of the entire route so you can more accurately pace yourself. Unlike Rouvy, where you can ride REAL roads from all over the world, I found the choice of routes limited and repetitive. I also found simply TOO much going on visually with Zwift for my taste. If you are looking for a App that functions properly and gives you the impression you’re riding outside on a road forget Zwift, go with Rouvy instead!

NOT a true running app. Great cycling app!

When I started on Zwift, I absolutely loved it! Finally a workout video game; what a concept. But then after my trial period ended and I became a paid subscriber, I found that some of the features and functions began to wean. It first started when I was riding a race and got a message that I was riding at “superhuman” and “professional” speeds before wiping my results from the leaderboards. I was super annoyed with the first couple, but became enraged with the third and fourth after I recalibrated my equipment. Then came the running problems. First of all, Zwift should not advertise itself as a “running” app, because it has very little that runners can do compared to the cycling events. Aside from that, it quit syncing up with my Garmin Forerunner 945 all of a sudden. Even after several “uninstalls” and reinstalls of both Zwift and resetting my Garmin, it does not sync up still. So the app is completely useless when that happens. I am so disappointed, because I thought I found an app that would keep me working out basically for the rest of my days. However, I have canceled my membership and hope that another developer will come up with something that far exceeds that of Zwift. Goodbye, Zwift!

I constantly use this app!

I have a modestly priced Schwinn stationary bike that hooks up via bluetooth, and have never once had issues. I am not a fan of the spinning, motivational-style of Peloton, nor the price, and this is a far better option for me.I also am not looking to “kill it” or be on a bike forever, so having a bunch of rides that take in the 30-50 minute range is great. If I feel like it I can do a race, but even that is not real competition unless I want it to be.There is, however, something motivating about seeing progress in the routes you take and points compiled. And just like real life, seeing others makes you want to keep pedaling.I do wish I could cross some of the longer rides off my list by riding them in chunks, but otherwise have no intention of ditching this app after (as of now) almost 2 years of use.

Caution: there is no logout on this app and it will mess up your drips and badges

I love Zwift. But the Zwift app on iOS, not so much. I’m sure it’s wonderful on an iPad, but on and iPhone it’s too small a screen to be useful. I use it to check my route/badge status when planning my next ride, because the only way to see completed routes, as of June 2021, is in Zwift itself. (Not in Zwift Companion as one would hope). The danger of using this app in that manner is that, if you accidentally stay logged into Zwift here, then go ride in Zwift on your PC, MacBook, Apple TV or whatever, is that your Drops and Route Badges may not post to your account. This has happened to me on more than one occasion. Zwift Support says it’s my fault for not logging out of one device before starting a session on another device, and they are right. Except that there is no way to actually log out on iOS Zwift; you must kill the app by swiping up, specifically. For this, and because Zwift on a mobile device isn’t a great experience anyway, I am giving the app one star because it allows you to corrupt your data, when Zwift is very aware that there is an issue.
