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

Overall the app us great but lately it doesn't allow me to end and save my rides from the app. I have to cancel the attempt to save and redo it from my computer. And also not a fan of how it takes so long to reconnect to the zwift "game" function when you exit the app to go into a different app, even for a second or two. Also does the same when closing the phone and re-opening. Otherwise it works great.

5/2023: Adding the new world has been great and the additional levels (yet I'm only on 30) but I specifically had a shed in my backyard built for working out and Zwift. It's been a great winter and wet spring activity to do so thank you. But why did you get rid of the pause in monthly payment? 1/2021: Unfortunately it sucks a lot of power from my phone (wouldn't work on my old tablet) so uploaded it on an older phone. It works well.

Generally it's great but every now and then the Microsoft tablet version locks up and you loose what you have done. I think that was really a problem with the Surface Pro and not the phone app. It's really great when it all works because you can see exactly what you have done in terms of distance, power and heart rate afterwards.
