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.
45 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: 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.

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 -
Visual indication (UI) that HUDs are hidden.
Visual indication (UI) that HUDs are hidden ←Please add.
"h" toggles all HUDs displayed/hidden.
There is no on-screen control for this. There is no setting for this, afaict. There is no indication, visual or otherwise, that all HUD’s are toggled off. This is barely mentioned in the documentation. It does not come up when searching for, e.g.: “TrainingPeaks Virtual HUDs not showing”. Google’s robotic donkeys braying from distant hilltops (so-called “AI”) does not mention this shortcut.
The shortcut is useful. The documentation less so, and the UI not at all. Please somehow promote this information in the documentation, add a…

MECHANICS: Sprint segments and PR's
I would really love to have visual sprint PR's and segments in the TPV routes. How Zwift has implemented it is really nice. Would be a great feature for me and could be a nice motivator during free riding/group rides/races.

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
Thanks.23 votes -
WORLD: Avatar lean and drift around corners
Cornering currently feels completely off on TPV. This is partly due to line choice (a lone rider follows the curve of the road and doesn't take a racing line) but visually it is also disengaging to watch as the avatar does not put an outside foot down, lean and fight centrifugal force in a bend.
Biketerra have recently updated their avatar animations to do this, and it totally transforms the feeling of cornering. You can see their implementation here:

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
- etc32 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.

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..

polar H10 and Verity Sense Connection Issues Post Polar Update
Yesterday I updated 2 HRM's polar H10 and Verity Sense to the newest polar firware. I tried to connect the h10 devices to tp virtual - it sees the device but no hr transmitted, tried verity sense - same issue. Last connected 2 days ago no issues. Checked in wahoo head unit / garmin forerunner both see devices and transmit hr. Also it no longer see the forerunner HR. Any issues I can address? thanks

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.

EXTERNAL: Strava segments
When I do a ride, there are no Strava segments on the routes. I’m not sure if this is a system limitation or if no one has created them yet, but you should proactively create good segments before random people create not-so-great segments.

UI/UX: Don’t end ride when minimizing app on IPhone?!
When using TPV on iPhone, the ride will end automatically if you switch to a new app. For example Spotify or YouTube or anything, if you put TPV in the background it will end ride after about 90seconds or so….

UI/UX: Allow second display at different resolution
Bit surprised to find that second display doesn't work if the resolution is different, even when changing the in-game resolution to match it! Please add support to enable a second screen that might be at a different resolution. Being able to add a small USB C display as a second screen is great but often these are lower res low cost displays.

UI/UX: Bot Identification
You recently declined a persons suggestion (on/off toggle to identity bots)
This after event scenario does zero to help during a group ride, event, etc. to be able to chat with other riders, ask questions, etc. We need to know Bots from real humans DURING the activity.
Today's group ride, several riders seemed frustrated to who was a real human and who wasn't. This was a group ride, not a race, so being able to 'talk' is something leisurely riders like to do.
It is hard to ask a rider to come back to the group or help them to…30 votes -
FITFILES: Record HRV/ RR Intervals
Record HRV/ RR Intervals from a Heart Rate Monitor in the fit files for use by training apps. AI Endurance, Humango, Athletica.ai, spoked.ai, runalyze, golden cheetah all use HRV data. AI Endurance, Runalyze, HRV Logger, Golden Cheeetah, and FatMaxxer do analyze the RR intervals stored in the fit file.

WORLD: Terrain - Summit distance road signs when climbing
When climbing a mountain it would be nice to see road markings with distance to the summit. Now we have to look at the route histogram and guess how far to go. Road signs would add to the experience, concentration and motivation.
Thanks!

FITFILES: Add Heat Sensor Data to .FIT File
Today I completed two workouts where I displayed data from a Core Body Temperature sensor. While I was able to see my core body temperature on display in the UI, however it did not record this data to the .FIT file when the ride was complete.
