I am having issues with Zwift sending elevation to my trainer, more so with the latest update. I do use the Companion app and everything is connected, but I see lots of people are having Companion Bluetooth issues, so maybe it’s connected.
I really hope today’s planned outage somehow fixes this.
I don’t disagree, but you can correct it to an exact figure in prefs.xml.
Easy enough on a PC for sure, but on a tablet or phone?
Won’t be possible without digging into the file system. And that would be on Android, good luck on anything Apple. 
One of the drawbacks of a simplified experience, and another reason to have markers as you suggest. Was just pointing out one solution. 
All good. Thanks for the tip
i did the same with the same results. Did you ever get yours to work or know of a way?
It appears to be a bluetooth connection with companion.
Oh yes, Zwift’s such a mess! Buggered if I know how Zwift have managed to f-up such a well-documented protocol driver, everyone else seems to know how to do it. But it’s not the first time they’ve stuffed up these drivers (ANT+ issues anyone??). I’m using the 3rd party app BlueHeart, works reliably as expected.
Got bt dropout yesterday during a race… game over. Took over a minute to repair and solve that problem, so this “Bluetooth devices should now be easier to pair and reconnect for Windows users.” is not working as mentioned…
“Fixed a bug making it difficult to pair a Sterzo while using the Zwift Companion Bluetooth bridge function.”
Since this update I cannot pair the Sterzo Smart using the Zwift Companion BT bridge. Before this update it paired and worked like a charm. I have reset my iPhone 7’s network settings but without any result. The same exercise I did with the iPad Air2 and iPad Pro. No pairing with the Sterzo possible.
Anyone else getting odd behaviour in the last ~week with gradient?
All of a sudden, on 70%+ of my rides, Zwift isn’t sending gradient correctly to my smart trainer. Sometimes it doesn’t send it at all. Other times, in a random flat part of the course, it’ll send 3%+ for 5 seconds and then go back down.
I’ve not found a single consistent fix to this. Restarting Companion, restarting my laptop, rebooting my iPhone, unlinking and linking back the power source and the “controllable” connection, changing the Zwift trainer difficulty… I try all of these and in combination some of these seem to fix the issue, some of the time. Other times, it’s almost like I have to go off the route I picked for it to work again – almost like it didn’t load the gradient profile when the route/game loaded.
I can’t really explain it well, but I’ve only lost gradient ~3 times in 5 months of daily riding vs. 4-5 times in the last week.
Do we get to find out what the server downtime was intended for, aside from general maintenance? It was described as bringing upgraded system performance. Will this be felt by customers in any way?
same problem here
I just found a further update for my Apple TV - one after the one from this post. New version 1.0.57818 wirh some crash fixes
Same happened to me… except it was weeks 1-11 and workout 1 of week 12z
just tested the atv update. sterzo via companion app to atv still not working (pairing ok, but no signal/positioning data). sterzo directly to atv works (but then no heart rate monitor)
I have the exact same setup and issues
Another update was released a few hours ago.
Yes. And yet to find anyone with an answer
An update was released a couple hours ago that should resolve the issue.
