Schnavel Posted June 28, 2018 Share What device did you use? Apple TV, so apparently it's not possible to download the ride through that. However, as you mention, it saves periodically onto Zwift.com, meaning that I only lost the last 10 minutes of my ride as it had saved at the hour mark.

(i assume it's the new one where one can load apps)I have no experience or knowledge of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schnavel Posted July 5, 2018 Share android version (beta) finally being rolled out only issue I have is my phone is not ant+ compatible (Huawei P9 lite) Yeah, that's the next issue - thankfully most new sensors and trainers are both bluetooth and ANT+ compatable.

bertusras Posted July 5, 2018 Share installation just finished, initial feelings (at work so I can't sync and test with a trainer).loading takes forever and they have this annoying background "music" playing. Well it's the same music as the desktop and iOS apps, so I'm not sure what your complaint is. I don't like the app permission requirements, wtf has location services got to do with enabling blue tooth? Sure, but what difference does it really make? the app is very slow (might be my phone) It's your phone Blazingly fast on my LG V30+, but it is one of the latest generation phones. This is great, no more lugging the iPad and stand between my house and The Girl's house for after work sweat-sessions. fanievb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian van Zyl Posted July 5, 2018 Share Support calls...I predict MANY people blaming their indoor trainers and not their device or software. fanievb and HdB 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HdB Posted July 5, 2018 Share only issue I have is my phone is not ant+ compatible (Huawei P9 lite) I use ANT+ with my China import Teclast T8 tablet (using Rouvy or the Tacx (cr)app) - I just use one of those Garmin ANT+ adapters with a OTG adapter. Support calls... I predict MANY people blaming their indoor trainers and not their device or software. No doubt. "Why won't your useless app work on my R1000 Sansui Hi-fi corp special tablet?!?! 1-Star rating for you!" At the same time though, there are a lot of Android phones and tablets these days that are not top-of-the-range, that can play PUBG, Mortal Kombat, etc. at decent framerates. I know synthetic benchmarks don't tell the whole story, but for example the Qualcomm 660 in the Nokia 7 Plus is faster than quite a few of the Apple devices that play Zwift just fine. Hopefully the Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 comes to SA. It will probably cost similar to the cheapest Ipad 6th Gen (which Telkom has a fairly nice deal on the 128GB version!), sure, but at least I don't have to wave goodbye to everything I already own on the Google Play store.

bertusras Posted July 5, 2018 Share Support calls... I predict MANY people blaming their indoor trainers and not their device or software. It's beta software, you know what you're letting yourself in for when you download and install it. Zwift has launched this beta to test as many devices as possible in order to narrow down which devices would be compatible. Once the full version is released you'll see that it will be available to limited devices which meet the required performance standards. They're not stupid.

HdB Posted July 5, 2018 Share So I installed the Android beta on my tablet (Teclast T8), and it actually runs well enough. Not perfectly smooth, but it is definitely playable. Issues so far are that it didn't control the resistance of my Vortex Smart at all.And it looks like there might currently be a limitation on the number concurrent of Bluetooth connections.For comparison, directly after my ride on Zwift I tested Rouvy with everything connected via BT (normally I use ANT+), and all my sensors plus the trainer connected without a problem and resistance of the trainer was being controlled. I probably won't consider subscribing until at least the trainer resistance issue has been fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
