    Great great great solution. Using a treadmill requires manually adjusting speed anyhow so this takes an extra few seconds and without connectivity or accuracy issues. Thanks for the great recommendation!

    Hiya, is it possible to use this App on the Apple Watch without Zwift? Just being able to run on a treadmill and manually select your running speed and add that to the other metrics picked up from the apple watch and export

      Yip it does. You can find a screen shot of the main landing page for the app in my blog post: mountain-road.com/blog/zwift-running-tss-app You’ll notice that there is a toggle to switch between Metric and Imperial.

    Thanks for sharing this! Is there a similar app to this for a non-smart stationary exercise bike to be used with Zwift? Would be nice to be able to translate power on the real bike into power in zwift when I'm traveling and have to ride in a non-connected gym bike.

    • @MountainRoadRide
      @MountainRoadRide  Рік тому +2

      I’m not aware of any app that can do this. I think the main reason why there isn’t something like this available is to prevent cheating during Zwift races. You can see how some riders will broadcast a fake power to Zwift while using it in a race.

    The App is now $2.99 as of November 8, 2020.
    Can you add incline on the app as well to match the Zwift incline indicator?

    • @MountainRoadRide
      @MountainRoadRide  4 роки тому +1

      I guess inflation has taken its toll. Still a great bargain even at $2.99. Yep you can manually adjust the incline input on the app. When the Zwift world shows say a 5% grade, you can set that same grade on the app. This data will then be stored and uploaded to something like Strava after your run.

    Hello, My Zwift is installed on my MacBookAir and the Treadmill Smart Speed App on my Iphone. I followed the steps of your video, but Zwift doesn't recognize it, even if you active bluetooth in both places. How should I proceed? Thanks

    • @MountainRoadRide
      @MountainRoadRide  4 роки тому

      What year model is your MacBookAir? Your iPhone can only connect via BT to newer Mac models. My MacBook Pro from 2011 does not support it, but on a 2018 iMac it works.

    • @roselainegallicio8106
      @roselainegallicio8106 4 роки тому

      My MacBook Air is from 2010 and my IPhone 5s. So it is not compatible. Understand. Do you know of a similar application that is compatible?
      Thank you!

    • @MountainRoadRide
      @MountainRoadRide  4 роки тому +1

      I did some more research and it seems that 2011 might be the cut-off. MacBook Airs made before then does not have the technology needed for this app to work. I know of another app (called Treadmill Speed Transmitter) that works on Android devices, but I don’t think there is a substitute that will work with the older macs.

      Should work. This isn't something that I've tested, but if you're elliptical provides a speed reading, then you'll simply match the app's input to the speed reading.

    • @MountainRoadRide
      @MountainRoadRide  4 роки тому

      I've never tested it on a non-apple device. I suspect that the connection between the phone and the other apple device works kind of like Airdrop in the way info gets exchanged. The app developer only listed this on the app notes: "*Connection to MAC Requires BLE 4.0 -
      The Mac mini , MacBook Air were both updated with Bluetooth 4.0 support in 2011.The MacBook Pro Mac 2012.The Mac Pro in December 2013."

      That is odd. I’ve been able to receive all the rewards and level-up just fine while using this app. The only place where the app might “disqualify” you is on Zwiftpower when you use it for races.

    Total waste. try hitting the phone button when you are running at 12 mph or doing high intensity intervals There is simply no comparison to likes of Stryd...a totally different league! Then again, you get what you pay for!
