This should work the same way as it does with Garmin ClimbPro.
The elevation profile is shown on the route that is mapped out, not necessarily the entire profile of what is ahead (the route may turn off of a full climb).
This should be an easy fix.
The issue with the minimap displaying the wrong route has been around forever and this is just an extension of that. It will never be fixed.
That explains probably why it pops up at weird times then that I hadn’t noticed until today. “Look, this huge climb is coming!!!” … jk, you’re turning off this climb!
Certainly a half baked feature I think many of us were indeed looking forward to; but it’s got some major flaws; including showing the climb on not your route, and popping up FAR too often, on bumps in the road.
To the point of someone going around my local neighborhoods and enabling climb pro on individual speed humps…

Has the TVOS update gone out? I still haven’t received it yet
@Neil_UK Scroll up:
“Version 1.73.2 for iOS / Android / Apple TV will release next week via the Apple / Play Stores pending review by Apple and Google.
Apple TV users - we are skipping version 1.73.0 and ask for your patience so we can deliver the new heads up display (HUD) without the risk of an app crash in 1.73.2. Thanks for your patience.”
Thanks mate. I couldn’t find it! Cheers for posting.
Sorry if covered before but could the new routes be added to the companion app?
Also, the new climb thing would look a lot better if the black background above the elevation indicator matched the translucent grey as in the rest of that display.

Please can we have the option to deselect the elevation profile. It dominates the screen and I’m not interested in it at all. Visually, I find it a distraction.
Please give us the ability to deselect it.

Can you move the elevation profile to the companion app or atleast provide that option, so on/off/companion app.

I was accomplishing the Zwift academy 2024 Race 1 yesterday at 1730 central time. When i was racing at around 26 minutes I received a message new FTP reached. As I was trying to remove it from the screen, I was kicked out of the race. I was on a windows laptop and had the companion app open on an iPhone.
Pretty disappointing to lose the event. These kinds of messages should not be appearing during racing events.
That looks awful.
D.
And while you are doing that add that same option to turn it off to :
time Vs time
KOM ranking list
Nearby Rider list
Close Gap remark

When I saw that come up today on my ride I thought I needed to rotate my monitor to portrait mode
What’s funny is… isn’t that a thing on mobile? They can slide away the elements they don’t want to see?
So it’s like… already a feature (that’s been around for an incredibly long time), but not globally for some apparent reason.
No idea how that works on a mobile. I was doing a free ride yesterday for a route badge and decided to completly turn of the hud so I could actually see where I was riding and not have the screen cluttered with info I dont need on a free ride.
It made riding so much better, so please Zwift, let me decide what I do and dont want to see.
Just the map, center hub with the route info and the top left one with the watts would have been plenty.
No need for climbing thingy, no need for time vs time, no need for close gap notice, no need for riders nearby, no need for KOM result screen. Let me enjoy how the world looks with just the info I need/want and let me turn off all the others.
Yeah HUD off is fun, I do it once in a while; sometimes switch to first person view as well (which I wish we could see our bars but that’s not a big deal)
But yes, on mobile, you just swipe on things like nearby list and it can be hidden.
(Granted it’s been broken more than it hasn’t I think in the past year, but the feature for mobile is there)
Just wondering if anyone else who’s using their Garmin watch to broadcast HR data to Zwift has been experiencing dropouts lately - mine was working but the last two rides I’ve had frequent drop outs. This started with the last series of updates, not sure if it’s related or not but I’ve tried switching USB ports/hubs, restarts… I just eventually switched off the graph from the bottom of the screen because it was too annoying to look at the red line constantly going up and down.
It is difficult to read the new smaller font with the 1.73 HUD update

On ZwiftApp 1.73.2 (PC), I just did a recon of the Pinarello Stage 2 before bed. I noticed that at the end of the event, the clock “discredits” elapsed time. I have seen this in other events before with distance, sometimes going up and sometimes going down. Please see the video here:
The clock goes from 39:31 to 39:03.
