Having seen these issues for some time, I decided to try my luck at reaching someone that can bribe a Zwift HC person to show some love.
1-If i have two rides (Group and meetup) overlap on time, the app pops up a message to leave the 1st ride in progress and jump to the second one about to start. But, if I dismiss this as I want to join at the last minute, as opposed to Zwift choice of 5 minutes. The join ride button disappears and shows up for a second every 10 seconds after the dismiss even if I quit the first group ride. Very user unfriendly. Just leave the join button up not flashing and barely usable. Also loose the automatic join countdown feature. Just show the two options. Dismissing the timer join makes the option disappear less the blinking join even if I leave the group ride. Having to quit the rides back to pair graphics is a work around but annoying and time-consuming.
2-Once I jump from Group ride to meetup ride, Zwift leaves me in the group ride kit and it can’t be changed. Just fix it so all non group rides uses my default kit. This has also happened when in quit the first ride and join the second meetup ride. Sometimes this kit malfunction is made permanent and a garage vist is needed. Other times isn’t. In all cases during the second non group ride(meetup) it can’t be changed in ride from garage visit.
Hope this can get some attention as it’s been like this for years.
I use ATV or iPad for app and iPhone for companion.
