WORLD: Consistent Scenery
Not so much a new idea but an evolution of existing. The 'cruiseliners' seem wrong to me even unrealistic and they block the view. They are too close to the shore ... unless they've actually run aground. How do the passengers get ashore? either a wharf or maybe some shore landing feature with smaller boats tied up ... and anyway is there really enough for them to do and see when they're here?
Perhaps some more modest expedition cruisers might fit better.Georgetown and the other 'villages' seem abandoned and do not have a cohesive style, these need to be…

MECHANICS: Adaptive Cruise Control
The new Cruise Control feature is fantastic, it locks in a target power beautifully. But… it flattens the virtual terrain completely, and that takes away a big part of the immersive feel.
Suggestion: Add a “Virtual Cruise Control” mode where the set power applies to 0% gradient, and you choose a bias (0–10) to scale power with incline.
For example:
Set power = 200 W, incline = 2%, bias = 2
Resulting power = 200 W + (200 × 0.02 × 2) = 208 WThis way, you keep the benefits of steady pacing and get the natural resistance changes…

FITFILES: Stop Virtual from auto-saving to TP account.
After a ride Virtual asks me if I want to discard the ride (I assume to stop it syncing to my TP account) but it ignores me and auto-saves to TP anyway. Then when a sync my watch to Garmin Connect (which is linked to TP) I have two workouts in my account for the one ride. It's easy enough to delete one but my TP account is also linked to WKO as well. The discard my ride button is ignoring me.

EXTERNAL: Apple Health integration
Currently TP "reads" from apple health. Could you please add a "write" function? My current UX is I start my scheduled workout on TPV, then I start an indoor cycle session on my apple watch. (I want my workout data to be sent to apple fitness so my monthly kms and time gets added up, among other things). Anyway, these two sessions get sent to TP and I have to delete the apple one so two don't show up on TP.
I think the simple fix is have TPV "write" to apple health.

UI/UX: Add realtime carb burn to HUD options
TrainingPeaks has just added the ability to show calories burned split by carbs and fat.
It would be great if it was possible to show carb burn (ideally in grams of carbs rather than calories, i.e. divided by 4) in realtime whilst riding. This will help fuel during an activity and replenish appropriately afterwards.

HUB: Apple TV Bluetooth connection limitation
Are there plans to introduce a phone app that can act as a sensor bridge to get past the Apple TV limitation of only being able to pair two devices? Have an older smart trainer with no cadence sensor built-in so have to forego the HRM pairing.

UI/UX: Configurable HUD (+ presets)
It should be possible to freeform configure the HUD - place datafields or elements wherever you want, change the font, change the size, remove the borders, etc.
It should also be possible to save presets, so you can have a different configuration for racing, workouts, free rides etc.

UI/UX: Clearer implementation of virtual gearing. Not clear how the current version works and if/how it can be turned off.
Not clear how virtual gearing settings work. Would be great to be able to turn on or off.

MECHANICS: Increase Climbing Rating Importance for Races with Significant Climbs
Summary:
When calculating event ratings for races that include categorized climbs (Cat 4, Cat 3, Cat 2, Cat 1, or HC), the algorithm should place substantially more weight on a rider's climbing rating rather than relying heavily on TT and Endurance ratings. This would create more balanced competition in hilly/mountainous races.Problem:
Currently, the event rating system appears to favor Time Trial and Endurance abilities in any longer race, even in races with significant climbing. This leads to several issues: Climbers with lower overall ratings but strong climbing abilities are placed in lower pens than appropriate. Larger/heavier riders with strong…17 votes -

UI/UX: w/kg
I understand that you don't want to show w/kg for the riders around you and I understand your reasoning. However, on my bike computer in real life I have my power data set to display as w/kg NOT a power number. It would be nice to have this as an option in the HUD display of my data that others can't see. I think others have also moved away from viewing a power number and instead use w/kg. Again it would be nice to have this as a power option in the displays that are private to the user.
43 votesMany thanks for this more nuanced suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
We've deliberately not declined this one and will add it to the list of suggestions to consider in more detail. Whilst the general position remains that we deliberately choose not to publish this metric, it potentially could be displayed for yourself only (and be blank when viewing other riders) as an option in the custom UI.

EVENTS: Custom event pacebot
What if you could customise a pace bot... no rubber band but any other bots added to the event stick with the pacer.
Options for the bot:
- progression - ramps up over the duration of the event
- Workout - follows a workout from your collection (this is the gamified workout ticked off)
- Climber - hit climbs hard and recovery on descents / flat
- Sprints - ride easy with intermittent sprints
- Fartlek - random intervals of varying length and intensity
Sure other people can add some more ideas. Weight and FTP of the bot should also be customisable to match your…

EVENTS: Pursuit Racing on the Velodrome
It would be great to be able to arrange pursuit racing on the velodrome for 1v1 racing, starting on opposite sides of the track for the usual kind of distances eg 1km, 3km, 5km etc..

WORKOUTS: Expanding the workouts library
Please can you add more workouts and ones with more variety to the library. There are too few workouts in the App when compared to other platforms. Please can you add more or let coaches submit their ideas

GPXplore My Routes for Workouts
GPXplore My Routes for Workouts
I'd love to see the My Routes functionality expanded to workouts, rather than just events. I love the feature, but I don't want to have to create an event every time I want to use a route—nor do I think event riders want the list cluttered up with people playing around with the feature or doing route recce.

MECHANICS: Gamify it!
Add some dopamine boosting elements:
- some kind of bonuses (not necessarily like Zwift ones)
- achievements
- some bonuses for riding through gates
- live ranking of segments
- checkboxes / stats of completed routes
- ranks / levels
- etc30 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
In general, some degree of gamification can be good, but we need to be careful not to go too far - for example, we would not want to do anything that encouraged an athlete to train when it would be better for them to be resting etc.
It's therefore an area we will certainly be looking at, but at this stage it's unclear what changes we may or may not make.

UI/UX: Better Mobile Layout
As a user of TPVirtual
I'd like better log in and password layout
So that I can actually see my entryAs a TPVirtual User And A Person With Bad Eyesight
I'd like bigger fonts and different Layout when trying To Select Workouts, View My Calendar and Selecting my Bluetooth devicesAs a TP Virtual User I'd like a better way to adjust my workout percentage as I can't see the arrow up/down buttons and even when I can see them just using my finger to reduce the workout percentage It never registers accurately or causes other items to show…

EVENTS: Automatic Splits For TTs On Courses Without Arches
Aimed mostly at courses on the new user uploaded routes, if using a route for a TT/TTT, there are no options to have live splits between the teams during the race. If when selecting TT/TTT on a course without arches there was an option to get splits every 2/5/10k automatically implemented, that would be ideal.
