Zwift for Android

It seems l like every time I decide to skip the gym and use this app another update is requires. This latest 1.26.2 is taking forever to update. Losing my interest and its appeal for sure. Should have just gone to the gym.

Went to start my workout and here comes another ‘required update’ before I can start. I wouldn’t mid so much if these were security updates but they’re typically minor features I don’t care about. Unlike other apps I update on the Mobile, these updates take long enough to be annoying.

For those of us that ride primarily outdoors and supplement with trainer, required 5-10 minute updates virtually every time you open the app is infuriating and makes deciding to ride an annoying chore.

There’s no question that Zwift makes training much more fun and engaging, but I find the app interface to be very busy/clunky - information is presented in a way that is not terribly intuitive and navigating various menus is not straightforward.

I use the app a lot and will continue to do so because the idea is cool. But this is a seriously terrible app design. It makes no sense in layout, nothing is where you think it should be. The maps and graphics are counterintuitive and actually really hard to understand. Want to see how you’re doing in a challenge? Well you have to be in the middle of a ride to see that. Can’t check before or after a ride from a main menu. Why would you want to do that? And wait, there really is no main menu. Huh? Stuff like that all over the place on this app. Zwift, seriously, you have enough subscribers. Hire a professional developer and get the app right. Your idea deserves better execution than this.
