Erg mode not visible

The Erg mode toggle button no longer appears in my pop-up menu during a ride. I have tried re-calibrating my trainer (Wahoo Kickr) and updating all apps (I just use my iPhone for Zwift). Any advice?

Hi @sarah_chamlee.

Welcome to the forums! I’m Haziel from the Zwift Support team, I appreciate you making sure your trainer is calibrated, and everything is updated.

I see that you’re having trouble with the ERG mode not appearing, and I’m here to help clarify this for you. Just to let you know, ERG mode is only available for workouts and training plans.

It sounds like ERG mode might be turned off during your workouts. Let’s try to get this sorted out together. Here’s how you can turn it back on in the main Zwift app:

  1. Open Zwift.
  2. Join a workout.
  3. Bring up the action bar and look for the ERG mode icon.
  4. Click on the icon to turn ERG mode on. You should see a message indicating when it’s activated.
  5. Continue with your workout, and that should engage ERG mode.

Just a quick reminder: the action bar, with the blue icons at the bottom of your screen while riding, can sometimes be hidden. You can bring it up by pressing the up arrow on your PC. If you’d like more information, feel free to check out this article.

If you’re still having issues after trying that, I recommend checking out the ERG Mode Troubleshooting article for more solutions.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any more questions or need further assistance.
