Basic features for workouts

Everytime I’m looking to do a specific workout I’m forced to painfully scroll through a list of all the workouts to hopefully find the one I’m looking for by name.

What we need… Workouts

  • alphabetical sorting
  • pinning/favourites of workouts
  • search box filter

What we need… Riding Interface

  • ability to maximise and or move any of the stats panes, yes because sometimes I just want to ride and see the stats while listening to an audiobook.

For such a massive platform it should be really easy to support more than one layout. The gamification of the platform is really nice, but sometimes we just want to ride without another glowing silly rig flying past me on a screen. Needless to say for the guy who just wants to get a workout without leaving his house you don’t need to see all the names of 100s of people changing order. Sometimes I just want to work out “alone”.

Cmon team you can do it.

disconnect your wifi after starting the ride, everyone will disappear, just don’t forget to reconnect before ending and saving the ride or you will lose the progress.

or go use one of the worlds that isn’t on the calendar for that day

Where everyone else goes for the same reason.

I support the ride alone feature which should be possible to do without disconnecting computer from your network. People have asked for this feature for a long time.

Howdy @David_K7 I’m Norman from Zwift! Thanks for the feedback, love your suggestion.

This would be massive for me personally, I’ve been wishing for a simple search bar so I’m hoping more people give attention to this post!

For this one, I’ll be honest, I get your point but Zwift is heavily built around sharing with the community and the social aspect is huge for us! So I can’t see that being implemented, but who knows?

Thanks again and Ride On.

Aren’t they already sorted alphabetically? (Numerically then alphabetically)

You can already do this.

It’s also a privacy feature for some who would prefer to do their rides in privacy or anonymously.

Some might not want to be seen on Zwift or could be hassled/threatened by others. Unfortunately that does happen.

Thanks Norman.
I didn’t mean to say I want to ride alone on the map.
Rather I’d prefer if I can have an alternate screen without a virtual world and only my ride/workout stats as a full page. This way I can concentrate on the next ‘5 min @400w’ block without the noise.
Ok, more like 200w :wink:

Point is.
Give me a choice on what I’d like to see while working out.

Show me how

Could use the stats from Companion and mirror the Companion device to your display instead of looking at the game screen. Ultimately you’ll be left with workarounds like this but honestly Zwift is not the best app for what you want. Many others are purpose built for that experience.

David, to save me writing everything out again please have a read of this old post.

Instead of using the example word ‘anything’ (in this old post) use the word ‘Favorite’ or any other useful search word you like.

You will see from my example screenshots at the bottom that I really don’t use the workout facility very much at all but I have messed about with the options to set up a few examples.

How your in game Custom option would look if you save workouts you want to use/find again:

If you want to place certain workouts into your newly created subfolders, using the tag option, you can find them by going into the Plans option and then change to Workouts option:
