Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

It works fine with my (Bluetooth *and* Ant+) Stages.

I'd be more tempted by the Wahoo dongle to talk to the (Ant+ only) Wattbikes at the gym if it was Lightning-native, bit it needs a 32 pin/Lightning adaptor, which all seems a bit clumsy.

Tell me about the wahoo dongle, does that pick up ANT? But needing a lightning adapter is clumsy, I agree

It's partly your fault Corona, I keep seeing people's zwift rides on Strava!

*APPARENTLY* a Wahoo dongle + adapter *should* talk to an Ant+ Wattbike or powermeter running the iOS app. I'll undoubtedly buy one in the new year, just nervous.

The iOS app talking Bluetooth works fine though - thumbs up for that at least.

I *think* that the Wahoo dongle has an issue with Zwift? or Garmin sensors? one of the 2. I cant find the info now but I think DCRainmaker had something recently mentioning it. Worth checking prior to buying.

I haven't tried iOS. I'm getting an iphone 7 plus for work after christmas so may put it on that (they're OK with personal use of the phone) but the faff of getting my ant+ hrm to talk to it means I'll probably only use it if I can't use the PC for some reason. My PM has Bluetooth so it will at least do the basics.

If your PM does Bluetooth then it'll be fine. One of mine does, one doesn't. It's the Wattbikes at the gym that are the big issue for me. I was hoping it could pick up Bluetooth from the Wattbike Hub - the Watter app does this - but it seems not.

I'll be Zwifting Weds and Thurs eve, both about 6pm if anyone's about :-)

One of these will be the sweetspot (medium) workout, the other a general play (may do a group ride of around 2.5 w/kg for this if there's one).

Anyone seen that nutter doing a ridiculously long ride, over 1000 miles or something.

I've no idea about all this dongle shite, my watter pumps out ANT+, I have Zwift on the Laptop + the app on the phone (Android). It all happens on the lap top but you can control stuff, send messages, enter group rides and see your stats on the mobile.

I assume they will Zwiftify Android at some point now IOS is done. Courses are noticeably busier since that was launched.

That's the 'old' controller app TRO yes? I'm running Zwift-qua-Zwift on my iPhone 6plus. Works fine.

Can't really lug my laptop to the gym, hence the desire for an iPhone/Ant+ solution.
