Giving Ride On from Computer

General Discussion
1

Can Ride Ons be given from a PC? I lost my cell phone with the Companion App but would like to give Ride Ons to my fellow riders.

I only know of two methods (there could be more of course!)

  • click on the name of the rider in the list of riders on the right side of the screen
  • you will start to ā€˜followā€™ them
  • you will see the RideOn Thumb beside their name
  • click that to give RideOn

Or: When riders near you do something special (new PR, finish a workout) a RideOn Thumb will appear beside their name (temporarily!) Click that to give a RideOn

i use a PC with wireless keyboard, and i never make it in time to ā€œreturn the rideonā€. i always feel bad about it, and sometimes i canā€™t find the person to return it after itā€™s gone!

definitely wish there was just key-press or quicker to get to button.

I use an iPad connected to my TV and can only give a ride on from the companion app. I have tried clicking on names from the iPad screen and nothing happens. That is very frustrating as my cell was dead so couldnā€™t use it today and Sadly could not return any ride ons. If someone knows of a way to give ride ons from an iPad running Zwift, Iā€™d love to know it.

I do agree It will be nice to have more options on PC to give ride-onā€™s.

Does F3 do it?

That just plays the audio.
