About this app

Have you already downloaded Zwift? If so, you’re in the right place—Zwift Companion makes Zwifting better.

It’s like a remote control for Zwift that you can use pre-ride, during your ride, and post-ride.

Zwift Companion is a great place to plan your next activity. With all the events in one place and thousands to choose from, you're sure to discover like-minded athletes who want to get fit together. You can also find and join clubs on Zwift Companion.

You'll see rides chosen specifically for you based on your preferences, fitness level, and upcoming events. You can even set reminders, so you're never late for a ride.

You'll also find a bunch of cool information on Zwift Companion's home screen, like the number of people currently Zwifting, as well as any friends or contacts you're following.

Have a Zwift Hub smart trainer? You can also update the firmware with the Companion app.

DURING YOUR RIDE
With Zwift Companion, you can send RideOns, text with other Zwifters, bang U-Turns, choose between route options, and more. You can also adjust the resistance of your trainer on the fly during structured workouts, to increase or decrease intensity. Want to turn erg mode on or off, take screenshots, or see riders nearby and their stats? All of this happens on Zwift Companion.

POST-RIDE
Take a deep dive into your ride data and the folks you rode with. You’ll also find a progress bar for any Tours you’re participating in and the latest on any goals you set for yourself.

Ratings and reviews

Zwift continues to listen to user feedback and provide a great platform. Delighted screenshots now just save to my phone gallery, so I can share while riding. The companion app is pretty much essential when I'm training with Zwift on a tablet (...and/or projector to a garage door.) If I had to nitpick, the HUD font is smaller in the latest version (both companion and main app) - I have to squint if I don't have my glasses on (e.g. while training). HR is the thing I care about most.

Completely messed up for group rides. One of three things happens and happen quite often during a 1-hour ride. Either I will get booted from the messages screen to the map, I'll get booted from messaging to the home screen with the option of re-entering the game, or I'll get booted to the home screen with no option to re-enter the game. In that case I have to restart the app. after restarting sometimes I will have the option to rejoin the game chat and sometimes I won't. I pay too much for this

There are capabilities in this program that should be moved to the main application. One function is to be able to do a ride on bomb. The application is also missing key features from the main application which should be incorporated to increase value. One is the current standing in the number of XP needed to get to the next level

What's new

- Fixed some app crashes.
- Fixed an issue where the number of route completion badges was inaccurate.
