I absolutely love this app. I’ve been cycling on Zwift for a few years now so when I bought a Concept2 rower, I immediately started looking for virtual rowing apps. In the end, I found moving across virtual lakes boring. That began my search for an app where the Concept2 could output my power to Zwift so I could both ride and row in the app I like most.
My initial concerns were that my rowing power is less than my cycling power so I might not be able to keep up with the groups I like to ride with. Secondly, how to get a drink or towel off while rowing (I.e. stop outputting power) without losing the draft. This app easily solves both allowing you to select a multiplier to match your average rowing power to cycling. They suggest 30% which has been pretty close for me. But the best feature is the cruise control. It allows you to store up power and then use that stored power while you towel off, get a drink, or stand and stretch. In 1-hour group rides/rows, this is an awesome feature.
Thanks to the developer for a simple to use app with just the features we absolutely need!!
One disadvantage is that the PM5 can only connect to one app so you can’t use ErgData at the same time so your rows won’t upload to the Concept2 Logbook. I’m willing to go without that in order to enjoy Zwift as I row.
