ZwiftGame Android FAQ (v 1.0.60239)

Android
41

I’ve installed newest version from Google Play 1.19.0 (100118)
Devices:
Ant+ dongleAdidas MiCoach (worked with PC last year without problems)
Samsung S21 Ultra with android 12
Tacx Neo 1st gen
Polar H10 HR strap
Power2max ngeco crank

There are few problems I’ve noticed:

  1. To connect FEC trainer, i need to connect power first. If I disconnect power, to connect external Power Meter, I am loosing trainer connection
  2. Althought phone was on side of my handlebars, HR was dropping very often
  3. I paired Tacx Neo as cadence sensor → Had cadence on pairing screen but no in-game.
  4. I couldn’t pair Power2Max as cadence sensor…
  5. After short ride, literally 5mins, I finished ride, and clicked save… ride is not visible neither in zwift, nor on strava, although zwift says I have 23trial km’s left

Hello, I have problems pairing my Garmin Rally 100 power sensor to Zwift Android.

I’m using Samsung galaxy s21 ultra Phone that have no build in ANT+ hadware. Rally pedals have Bluetooth & ANT+ and I think that, should be able to connect tose via Bluetooth.

Garmin connect software can find and sync that power metter, but Zwift Android would’n find it. I have linked Zwift and garmin connect accounts and tried close (and open) Connect app before opening Zwift.

What should I try next, is any one else having same problems?

Hello
First of all, thank you for everything you do for the community!
I have installed the 3 prerequisite ANT services.
Zwift Android always asks me for a bluetooth connection and I cannot use the ANT + connection.
In bluetooth, Zwift cannot find my Elite Tuo.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards,
Cyril

Try installing “ANT Tester”, and check if it shows any issues?

On my S10:

However, from app Windows Zwift + Companion Zwift → All is in order…

But, i hope to fix App Android… it 's better for me…

I have not seen the settings wheel next to firmware, but if you select the red lock next to Service radio ANT, it should take you to the permission page for the service. There is a permission needed, something like “Use ANT hardware”

My zwift app keeps freezing my phone mid activity. My phone then restarts after a couple of mins. I’m using a galaxy s21. Nothing pisses me off more than being kicked out mid race. At the point now where I am about to leave zwift behind and find another app

Good morning all, I am trying to pair my Samsung Z Fold 2 with Zwift, but it won’t find my Kickr, any help would be much appreciated👍🏻

I have a problem. Zwift does not find the trainer in FEC mode. The power meter is found, the cadence too, but the controller is not paired.

Hi,
I’m trying to use a Huawei Mediapad T5 with Zwift, but I’m not able to connect my Bkool Smart Pro 1 through ANT+. I’ve checked the ANT+ service (all the additional apps are installed) and works fine using BKOOL app, but it’s impossible to connect with Zwift, even the app runs fine on the tablet. Also the trainer works fine with Zwift using my Mac Mini, but I have the message that the graphics card will be not supported after this month (Intel HD 3000), so I’m trying to use the android device as alternative to continue using Zwift. Can you help me with this issue?

In order to have the trainer paired controllable as FEC you have to pair as a power source, first.

Pairing a power meter as power source and the trainer as controllable FEC does not work.

I just got a used TACX Neo 2T and did my first Zwift ride today. Definitely felt the cobbles and the gravel :slight_smile:
