Overall, I have found this app to be a great way to interact with Zwift in-ride. However, the it seems to disconnect regularly. I put this down to poor wifi connection in my house, but it’s still irksome. I use Zwift on my iMac with no wifi issues at all, but the companion app occasionally struggles.
On one occasion I tried to connect my power meter and other devices via the companion app. This was a mistake as the connection dropped multiple times mid-ride, so I had to play catch up which was exhausting. Since then, I have always connected my hardware via bluetooth only.
