I wonder if Santa will bring us landscape mode for our companion apps this Christmas 🤔

Did this ever get sorted for the Android version of the companion App ? as soon as you move to a large tablet you want this in Landscape not Portrait so you don’t need to keep swiping the bottom buttons. The option would also allow for a better mounting setup on some bikes.

Lack of joined up thinking by Zwift. Sell a bike with tablet holder and then make an app you cannot rotate. Genius.

Short answer = no.

It’s been requested on numerous occasions but as of yet no word on this ever being a thing.

Its been a standing request since 2018 apparently. No idea why it cannot be implemented and also have my idea of an option to drop all the HUD on your main screen to your iPad or tablet during the ride so I can enjoy just pure scenery on the big screen. Probably this would be the greatest outstanding fix that Zwift could make.

Not sure it’s classed as a fix. It’s not technically broken as it’s by design.

And there’s far more important things that need resolving.

I don’t have them to hand but the statistics for those that use ZCA is surprisingly small compared to Zwift game users.
