Same for Garmin forerunner.

2 times Zwift has frozen while trying to save rides after the last update on my laptop. Have had zero issues before the update. The ride still saves and is uploaded to my zwift and strava feed but the app is completely frozen.

Windows 11, Intel 10300h, Nvidia Geforce 1650, 16 gb ram

If you have video screenshots enabled in settings, try turning that feature off

Can try, but doubt it makes a difference. One of the crahses was me just checking that my zwift play was working and not even riding anything. So no video screenshots was recorded

You should read the thread that i linked

They are always recording, thats why they cause so many issues

First ride after the update to 1.59 and several of us in the 14:00 GMT VO2 Max 40/20 group workout ride did not have the workout, just a timer. I am not sure if this is a known previous glitch. but this is the first time it has happened to me.

Connection to Garmin Dual HRM doesn’t work anymore. Running on Apple TV.

Oh interesting - and I thought mine was broken after only 3 months. Even changed battery, but to no avail. Im using the Garmin Dual HRM on an iPad Pro (2018).

Anyone noticed any odd behaviour with wahoo tickr? HR seems to fluctuate periodically after latest update.

Works for me. Are you sure it isn’t connected to another app?

Not connected to anything else, it connects without issue just noticed multiple fluctuations throughout rides which are not in line with actual HR.

Are you sure that the fluctuations really aren’t in line with your actual HR? If they’re not then perhaps the Tickr or strap is faulty.

A lot of posts pertaining to HRM.
I encourage people to remember that HRM are a disposable piece of equipment.
I used the same one for years out doors with no problems.
After a few years of using it on the trainer, it got flaky, still worked, but just periodic weirdness that slowly got worse.
Started changing the batteries and new chest straps and that kind of helped.
Finally I realized the connections had changed color from corrosion and moisture had got in around the battery seal.
Riding in doors is just like dipping all your equipment into a corrosive salt brine.
your HRM is prone to fail and when it does, just buy the cheapest one you can find and use for a few years then repeat.
A lot of people who joined Zwift during Covid have put enough sweat into their HRM so that it may need to be replaced.
and,
If Apple watches are not supported, buy the cheapest HRM you can find and move on.
The Apple watch is probably the most expensive HRM on the market.

I find the first thing to do when my heart rate strap is playing up is to change the battery.

Just last week while out on a run my HRM Pro was dropping connection and m giving reading as high as 230bpm. The Garmin app said battery okay, but a fresh battery put it right.

Hi Shuji,

Has anyone mentioned Zwift crashing since this latest update on Windows 11 systems? I’ve been on Zwift since 2016 and never had issues with Zwift crashing until this update. There are a series of screen stutters and then the screen goes black. A notice will pop up that Zwift.exe is not responding. Close or wait.

Agreed. It’s visually disturbing; the halo effect makes the video appear clunky and low quality. It feels as though my avatar has been crudely dropped into the scene – an imposter that doesn’t belong. Maybe it’s important on smaller screens? It’s unnecessary on mine. Let me turn it off.

You can turn it off by turning it off. That turns it off.

Hope this helps.

You should just turn it off by turning it off, then it would be off
