When I went to connect my HR monitor of my Apple Watch to Zwift companion the app no longer is available. Is there a new way to attach Apple Watch hr to companion/Zwift

Try this ECHO Heart Rate: Connect your Apple Watch to any workout equipment Since the Apple Watch cannot broadcast data to equipment, we created an app that would do just that! In short, the ECHO phone app communicates with the Apple Watch (much like a regular fitness app would do). Th…

Came here to write this very post. Companion app worked fine a couple days ago. After the last update (Zwift Companion 3.51.0) the app disappeared from my Apple Watch (watchOS 9.6.3) and is no longer available to install. Tried removing and reinstalling Zwift Companion from the app store this morni…

So pissed that Zwift stopped Apple Watch Companion. How the hell are users supposed to track their heart rate?!?!!! Zwift just love giving reasons to dump your service (and that’s coming from a level 60 user). I’ve really had it. And I’m not going to download another app that costs money to link…

Did YOU read my post saying I wasn’t going to get an app (like Echo) that I need to pay for?!?! ZWIFT Companion should NOT, NOT, NOT have been un-supported! Buying an app is not the solution. Zwift fixing Companion (and without making it a paid app) is the solution. It was working nearly fine un…

I’d direct that anger at Apple. There are long established standards for transmitting HR data that every other watch and HR strap manufacturer uses. It would be very easy for Apple to transmit HR data via a standard BT signal but they chose not to and that’s on them not on Zwift.

Your comments not withstanding, but my devices worked yesterday and the same devices don’t work today. Zwift leadership/programmers should be ahead of these hurdles, not causing users to trip over them!

[image] Samuel: my devices worked yesterday The interesting thing is that Zwift formally posted that apple watch devices were no longer supported (and the companion app would be removed from the store) a long time ago, and that actually didn’t happen at the time. They did say they had a plan…

Zwift officially dropped support for the Watch app a long time ago (last year?). Now it’s finally gone (without any announcement about it happening in this update - hard to say if it was intentional but since it’s unsupported, it probably won’t be fixed). Here’s another app that’s free. I haven’t t…

Yup. It’s completely gone from my Apple Watch, yet the Companion App says to connect my Apple Watch through the devices screen in the game, which doesn’t work.WTH is going on Zwift?
