I know how I get here; I’ve got a tab in my browser open to the front page of the forum because I go on here fairly often. But how does someone new to Zwift get here? There is no “Forum” link button on the Zwift site anymore. That and the fact there is little to no publicity about the forum has managed to keep participation as a very small subset of the Zwift Community as a whole.
How 'bout letting people know about this place? It would be great to have more than 30 regular posters in here, not that I don’t love the other 29 of you all!
Exactly. I don’t do much web time on my phone and almost none from the Zwift Companion app. There needs to be a well-defined portal to the forum or it’s always going to be 0.1% of the community here. I really hope that’s not what ZwiftHQ is trying to do because this is an important resource for Zwifting…
Nope. I don’t believe it should be this hard. I cleared the cache, spun three times around on my left foot and chanted “Zwift” five times. Still not there. Another one of those “funny” things about Zwift we cannot fathom…
Yeah, I keep hearing the Companion App. Do you really think a majority of the Zwifters even use the app? If Zwift was interested in reaching as many of the paying customers, they’d make it easier to find. It’s like you’ve got to have a the secret decoder ring or something. Just not good business practice and it makes absolutely no sense…
Yeah, I know. I never Zwift without my Companion along. That said, I’ve NEVER even looked for the forum on my phone. So if you take the subset that use ZC and parse out those that don’t use their phone like that, the codgers >50, and you get about 1% community penetration. Less than optimal IMHO…
It hoses my battery for a start. Sometimes I need or want to run other apps instead. I don’t use it for messaging as it’s easier to type on a keyboard.
The only advantage the Companion gives me while I’m Zwifting is the ability to tap myself and give out 5 Ride Ons.
This will shock you even more probably. I Zwift using only my smart phone attached to the crossbar. That’s my main screen for Zwift. So I don’t have the companion app up because the screen is already being used. lol
Yep, the Ride-On grenade is the best feature of ZC. A coupla days ago when they changed from the circle to the little arrows (that I can barely frickin’ see) for one day the grenade would hit everybody in range instead of just five. When I switched to the 0 view, you shoulda seen the RO’s rainin’ down! It was epic! I shoulda done a meet up and it would’ve been put ol’ Dax or Coco to shame…
