Target Watts display is too small to read since the latest update! Please change this next time!

Average and Max HR last and current interval would be a nice addition.
And in current state, it’s impossible to know what is what unless I remember what I set.
ie the icons for anything power related are all the same.
It would be helpful to know that one of my power readings is normalized

So more of an actual review after doing a workout since this update…
Major issue:
By default nothing is set; so any users who have not set anything are going to be massively confused where cadence and HR went off to; someone at HQ needs to at least set cadence and HR in by default. Not sure if it was just me, but… mine were all blanked out.
Personally I’m rather reliant on HR and Cadence when in ERGmode / a workout. I guess I can understand some people might not want to see these things?.. but for me personally they need to be visible at all times.
I don’t feel like this update really did anything except make all of the typefaces smaller than they were before the update.
Once again from a UX/UI perspective this is still amateur. Pick one thing, you get 3 blank rows and 1 non-empty row; nothing is scaled.
And for I’m guessing the last decade ongoing; when can we see these kinds of settings on the “bike computer” portion of Companion… or companion actually be updated in parallel to these changes. I feel like I’d almost rather Zwift the app look like the speedo gauge on Companion during workout. Or something… there’s plenty of room inside Companion’s workout mode to fit the same 4 tiles of stats to match.
But please please please… make interval specific data a priority for this so called feature.
It’s incredibly important when doing a workout to know if my HR, or cadence, or for non ERG users their power, was higher or lower further into workouts for a given interval.

I think according to the principle of least surprise, the HUD defaults should remain unchanged, so if it was on the HUD before the new release, it should be on the HUD after the release if the user doesn’t select other options.

Exactly! I run Zwift on my phone, and now the target power, cadence, and HR are too small to be visible anymore. I wish there was a way to roll this back to the old style, it was so much better. I’m sure this is great if you’re running this on a 55-in TV, but I’ve got a 6-in screen. I have to study the workout ahead of time to memorize my power targets now.

How come the area to the left has the information in it in almost sentence form? “Hold 150 watts for 1 minute”. Seems redundant since I know the interval, I can see how much time is left. Perhaps displaying bigger font and less info like targets: x watts, y rpm might be more useful.
