### 1/5 — Neither use nor ornament

*2026-01-04*

Simply doesn’t work

### 5/5 — Funktioniert

*2025-11-26*

Die App ist unkompliziert und funktioniert. Update meines Suito war in 5 Minuten erledigt. Zwift und Co vor dem Start beenden, damit Bluetooth für Upgrado frei ist, sonst kann sich die App nicht mit dem Smarttrainer koppeln. Da könnte elite noch einen Hinweis reinprogrammieren

### 5/5 — Works

*2025-11-25*

The Update was simple and fast. I don’t need more, thanks

### 1/5 — Stürzt beim Öffnen sofort ab

### 1/5 — wouldn’t connect

*2025-10-23*

the app wouldn’t connect to my elite sterzo

### 1/5 — Impossible

*2025-06-02*

Ne fonctionne pas impossible de s’identifier ! Vraiment pas à la hauteur cette application et impossible de mettre le Direto x à jour pour le Zwift Cog 2. 
Je pars donc chez Wahoo beaucoup plus simple et service client beaucoup plus réactif

### 1/5 — Can't register to dire to upgrade firmware to use square frame

*2025-06-02*

Bought a square frame, but I can’t pair it with my direto trainer. The square says I have to update the trainer software. But your upgrado app doesn't work, I can't register or login to update direto firmware

### 1/5 — Can’t log in

*2025-04-16*

The app now won’t allow me to login, won’t allow me to reset my password & won’t allow me to contact them 
Not happy 
Pretty much useless

### 1/5 — Nutzlos

*2025-03-28*

Auch mit verbundenem Wifi wird ständig auf die Homepage verwiesen anstatt ein Firmware upgrade zu machen. Absoluter Müll
