It looks like the update has gone a little wrong. Completely uninstall Zwift and install it again.
Iâm on it. I hope it works. Thanks.
Youâve clearly been running too much, it rots your brain⊠
If this is the issue where one gets glue to either the left or the right side of the road when accidentally pressing a steering button on the Kickr Bike - itâs unfortunately not fixed.
Just reproduced it. After pressing the Kickr Bike steering buttons randomly for 20-30 seconds, got glued to the left. At that point, both Zwift Play controllers and Kickr Bike steering buttons stopped working.
Itâs possible that the behaviour has changed slightly in the following way: every 10-20 seconds, repeated pressing of the right Kickr Bike steering buttons would move the avatar to the right a bit, only to snap back to being glued to the left within a second or so. But I might be wrong and that may have happened before, too.
Within a few minutes, Zwift Play controllers start working again, but the time to fix itself seems to be variable. Usually itâs after a few minutes, but recently, on a Climb Portal ride, I got glued for what seemed to be 10+ minutes.
Thanks for looking into this.
I do not think this was intended - the road is missing and we are flying! I tried different camera with the same result.
I have just installed the new version on Android and this is how the Climb Portal road looks like (or does not):
Update:
- The only place when the virtual road was drawn correctly was the circle at the top
- I rode the climb 3 times with U-turn at the bottom. Always the same result
- My tron bike frame was white which also seems like a regression
Anyone else experiencing a high number of dropouts using Direct Connect on a Kickr V6? Was working perfectly but since the July 20th update I canât ride 5km without a connection failure.
I did a ride with Coco in Watopia this morning, used a coffee stop 45 minutes in during which I soft pedaled to cool down. When the coffee stop ended my guy kept pulling hard to the left without steering input, and holding the right steer button very slowly returned me farther right on the road, when I let up it jerked left again. Happened on the bridge heading into the desert, once in the desert proper the behavior stopped.
Edit: Steering behavior was 100% normal prior to the coffee stop including at that location.
Choppy and glitchy riding with Bernie in France right now. ATV4K (2022), latest OS and app.
Had to end ride. I have since uninstalled and reinstalled Zwift. Will report back. May be video cap related.
EDIT - freezing post reinstall. Disabled video reply but still choppy. Terminated second ride, about to hop back on using a Windows PC. (gaming laptop with NVidia GPU)
EDIT - running somewhat OK on a PC but every EXACTLY 8 SECONDS, the screen âstutters.â
I just did a race in London with Pack Dynamics 4.1 and new update v1.44.
My avatar jumped out of draft almost every 10sec and i was not the only oneâŠwe all use Zwift Play.
@shooj and @DavidP i noticed this problem only in a race with PD4.1âŠwhen i a did warmup and cooldown with RoboPacers in Watopia this was not happening.

Had an issue after updating. Couldnât get the menu on the right to go away. Had to restart Zwift. PC windows 10.
I thought the âgetting smallâ bit was the avatar switching to the drops. We all appear to shrink when we drop from the hoods and tops to the drops.
Hi folks,
We are temporarily rolling back the 1.44 game release only for Windows users. The next time you open Zwift on Windows, you will be rolled back to game release 1.43.3.
We have had some limited reports of the game appearing black for some users, so we are rolling back the 1.44 game release while we investigate this further.
Weâll post back here when we have further updates, and thank you for your patience.
Evan

Ooh, a rollback. This is an interesting development, and a potentially useful one when required.

I did get rolled back, so itâs happening, somehow. Didnât even have to check for an update.

Yep. The companion app is hard enough to use as it is when Zwifting (sweaty hands, esp racing) without introducing an unnecessary extra step to change camera view. What was wrong with old (simpler + faster) way of doing this? Seems like something was âfixedâ which wasnât broken. Donât understand thisâŠ
