I am stoked to see that this isn't just me, I've seen quite a few unknown apps on the app store which I've downloaded. I will activate my trials one by one and see which is best Feedback from my "Bold and the Beautiful" soap: downloaded and used Kinomap this morning. Could not get the Apple TV to connect with the trainer. Used Kinomap on the phone and it was quite a workout. Made me think: does the bluetooth connection drop during a ride on Fulgaz? That lead me to head over to our friends at one of the online shopping platforms and got myself a 10m HDMI cable. My plan: pull the cable through the ceiling and drop the Apple TV directly above the trainer (like 30cm away), then I will test Fulgaz again to see if the drops persist, if it does hopefully Kinomap picks up the trainer.

Kom Posted June 13, 2023 Share I had my first MyWhoosh app failure on the iPad yesterday, regretfully didn’t recover so lost the ride completely. luckily I was connected to the trainer with my garmin as well, so at least had the numbers for the effort. im going to see if I can engage with there devs/product team, keen to see if they are open to “suggestions” 😆 Dexter-morgan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duane_Bosch Posted June 13, 2023 Share Running a Samsung blah blah (the new one) tablet. With an Elite Zumo. It's been collecting dust for a year. Thoughts of lockdown workouts still turn my stomach. My better half did a ride on mywoosh this morning. The only issue was that once my user had been connected to the trainer her user would not find the trainer. Switched bluetooth off and back on and off she went. She used a youtube playlist on her phone for tunes. It's not Zwift but it's not bad.

Bub Marley Posted June 13, 2023 Share Fulgaz is a terrible platform. Used it to do that virtual Argus stuff during lockdown and will never use it again. I thought sufferfest was amazing back when it was sufferfest. Have they changed it since Wahoo bought it over? Duane_Bosch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frosty Posted June 13, 2023 Share I must have done something wrong yesterday, as today’s workout went to plan. The white vertical line ticked by as per the plan. Dexter-morgan, its evange1ium and Kom 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not this time; Tried to create a workout to match my plan for today; screen too small to make the changes required; Picked a workout from their workout list, that was close to my plan for the day; Ride completed fine, but the workout never started. Will give it a go another day. I've given up, the constant world updating everytime you start the app just isn't worth it. I think their intention is another race only platform, whenever I tried to do a workout I had some or other issue. for now I'm stuck with zwift (x2 thanks CancER for the extra cost) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever you see in Strava is how it comes out from the 3rd party apps. I’ve been having continual data dropouts on Zwift, so decided to try MyWhoosh again. The dual recording on my Garmin (Vitality reasons) is more stable, so that goes through to TP and Intervals. Kom and Dexter-morgan 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
its evange1ium Posted June 18, 2023 Share Was reading through the topic because I’m relatively new to the cycling world, so I’m not fit and strong, and have been looking at apps to use for training. I’ve been using mywhoosh in a sort of ad hoc way but am starting a plan - hoping it’s not terrible and it helps me get fitter and stronger.

Have come to the same point, was using Fulgaz but Bike The World is a decent alternative coupled with some music and I’m sorted. Recovery / Zone 2 sessions I just catch up on a series or some You Tube that helps to pass the time. Frosty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I start with about 50-60Km to go in each race/stage, and my 90-minute session goes by quickly. GCN+ works well, being able to scrub the time back to the 50-60Km marker. cadenceblur 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let me give my current situation: 1) I have an Apple TV with a 40" mounted in the man cave with my old 26er on a Kickr (direct drive) - the struggle is real. 2) I've been using Fulgaz since lock down - I am a Knight from another platform - all the Sufferlandrians will know what I'm talking about. Fulgaz has been giving me endless crap, the resistance keeps dropping and sometimes the video freezes. What I have done to mitigate the issues: A) Pulled a Cat6 Lan cable from the router and got a mesh to boost the signal B) I have removed all other bluetooth devices and changed back to the laptop and phone as well C) I have bought another trainer. D) I have reached out to Fulgaz for advise and their platform had two releases since the start of my issues back in Feb. 3) I cannot use Rouvy as you need a first Gen remote (which costs R1900) and I use a generic remote I got for like R200 4) I refuse to use Zwift as that is absolute rubbish 5) Sufferfest does not have elevation on their videos (this sucks - so everything is at 0m) 6) I will much rather start doing crossfit than cycle outdoors 7) My Whoosh is not currently on Apple TV So based on the above mentioned, is there any other options out there that I can consider? Also battled with various Cycling Apps. Now using Golden Cheetah and it works perfectly. No gaming and funny avatars but you can do a multitude of training programs and if video is available you can sync program to video. Run my own on a antique laptop with windows 7 and my wifes on a i7 Assus Laptop. We have build about 50 programs linked to your FTP and downloaded about a 100.

Block Posted August 23, 2023 Share Tried MyWhoosh for first time and it worked quite well for two session. Last night I tried to get it going but it got stuck on the opening screen. Thought it might be an update so I waited. Afte 3 hours still on same screen. Downloaded it again to mt windows 11 laptop and exactly the same. Has anybody experienced a similar problem and how was it rectified. Waiting for a response from their support team ChrisF 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dexter-morgan Posted August 24, 2023 Share I have recently did the 13.2GB download and everything worked fine, Probably the best look and feel since its launch, with the agreement between UCI and "Mywhoosh" for the official esports racing, I suspect that it is going to grow from now.

Best no-frills training, and super detailed data analysis of anything and everything (especially after linking with strava to pull your IRL rides in for analysis.

Maniax Posted August 24, 2023 Share Mywhoosh doesnt like my laptop.. too old. But it runs amazing on my Ipad. Workouts, rides everything is 100%. I'm learning to love it. But my main training sessions are through TP running through my Garmin 530. No fuss, just business. My screen occupies me with some One Piece Anime, to get my head focussed elsewhere when the watts burn the legs and the interval is still 15min to go.
