When loading Zwift there a number of random messages popping up. One of them exhorts me to “Ring my bell” but I can’t see that option anywhere in the Companion App. Could it please be added? If necessary, just remove one of the lesser-used actions like the Wave.
Thanks
It’s the bell on your handlebars. Go ahead, I can’t hear it.
on the Action bar:
Not on my ZC, running on an Android phone. I’ll need to report it as a bug.
Did you try scrolling the bar for more icons?
Please god no, these annoying buttons (“ride on!”, “I’m toast!”) need to go, or at least have the option to be muted. People just spam them endlessly in pacebot groups and its irritating as hell
There are 2 volume sliders in the settings. I have game sounds almost all the way down, and hardly hear the dozens of “Ride On!” while in the start pens.
I did that mainly to stop the annoying “bee-boop” when the “Close the Gap” shows up or goes away.
The 3D sounds I keep turned up more, since that doesn’t annoy me. It’s interesting to hear where some sounds have been added, like the wood cutters on the way up the Alpe.
There are but they’re not fine-grained enough, you have to shut out sounds you want to hear in order to get rid of these annoying ones.
They are good enough for me, as I noted above.
What would be some game sounds you would want to hear?
Well, that’s what has added to my confusion. I hear “Ride On”, “I’m Toast” and “Hammer Time” but never a bell. I therefore assumed that nobody had that button but it appears some have and some haven’t. That fits the “bug” criteria for me so it should be fixed.
Aha!
Question then; does anyone have it on the Companion App?
Not on mine.
I have it on my ipad (main device) but not in iphone companion app. The whole “strip/ribbon” interface needs reworking though, since its hopeless currently - the buttons move positions meaning you can try and hit one button and end up pulling a u-turn instead for example. Its like playing whack-a-mole.
Just leave it be, please!
No one sane wants to yell those stupid exclamations or even ring a bell in Zwift.
do you actually want the bell? if so why?
