Fun app adds to the overall positive Zwift experience. A few months ago, I suggested that route elevation profiles be made available in the ZWIFT App to complement the existing route maps. The developers listened and made it happen with 2 profile types: 1) an overall route profile that shows the whole route, and 2) pop-up profiles for each climb that includes gradients. This development deserves MAJOR KUDOS because this allows Zwifters to plan, gauge, and adjust efforts during routes!

ZC is like having a broken knife in the jungle: it doesn't reach its potential, but anyway, it's still invaluable. It's the app that's most sensitive to low WiFi signal strength, and sometimes it goes flaky for reasons that are not apparent.

Generally it's great but every now and then the Microsoft tablet version locks up and you loose what you have done. I think that was really a problem with the Surface Pro and not the phone app. It's really great when it all works because you can see exactly what you have done in terms of distance, power and heart rate afterwards. The new routes in Watopia are really great and the Tour of Watopia is always fun and good for your fitness!
