HUB: Companion App
I would love to see a companion app developed to have ride manipulation more accessible on the bike.
253 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this week's release (v0.4.18) introduces the first public release of the TrainingPeaks Hub mobile app (available on both the Apple AppStore and Google Play Store).
Simply download and you can then access key functions (such as in-world chat, and viewing / signing up to events) using your phone.
We will continue to expand the function available through the Hub app over the coming weeks and months ahead - including adding a second screen to view your live data, in-world controls (such as junction direction selection) and Bluetooth bridging. Please feel free to raise any of your suggestions for enhancements on UserVoice as we'd love to hear from you, and then build for you, the experiences that committed athletes want and need.

HUB: Web site with all route maps
Create a web site with all route maps - their detailed description and profile.
Ideally, it should be interactive - similar to https://zwiftmap.com/ or at least as informative as route descriptions on Zwift Insider.
Why - not everybody races, some people just workout or do social rides and it would very beneficial to be able to check routes before riding and navigate around without predefined routes as well.86 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this has now been fully implemented. Simply go to https://tpvirtualhub.com/map and you can see all the routes together with the description, course profile etc.

UI/UX: AppleTV Remote Usability
Navigation on Apple TV is rather difficult. The UI seems overly sensitive to switching fields compared to Zwift. I try to swipe down to get to the next field, but it goes 2-3 fields ahead. It was similar when using the remote app on the phone as well. This is obviously not an issue for a computer that has a mouse, or touch screen display.
Likewise, using left/right/up/down to navigate the UI doesn’t always seem to go to the next field that seems intuitive.

I'm delighted to say that this week's release (v0.4.18) resolves the issues with the AppleTV remote.
Simply download the new TrainingPeaks Hub mobile app (available on both the Apple AppStore and Google Play Store), and use the built-in remote control function. This completely replaces the AppleTV remote, and enables you to easily and quickly navigate menus and enter text using your phone - a truly game-changing experience when using AppleTV.

Have your training peaks zones data sync with your training peaks virtual profile
It would be nice if the training zones would sync up with the training zones you have input on training peaks account automatically rather than input each individually
79 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
Automatic sync of data between TrainingPeaks and TrainingPeaks Virtual (e.g. Name, FTP, TrainingZones, Weight etc) is now available in v0.4.4!

HR workouts
Allow Heart Rate based workouts to be pulled into platform to provide suggestions that automatically start in Free ride mode. Screen prompts for HR range Rx.
47 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that the latest release (v0.4.14) out today fully supports HR based workouts. Simply create a workout in TrainingPeaks online using your heartrate to set the intensity of each interval and then it will automatically synchronise across to TrainingPeaks Virtual where you can then ride it.
Further, TrainingPeaks Virtual now also fully supports ERG mode for HR workouts, which means that it will automatically adjust the resistance of your trainer for you to compensate for fatigue / cardiac drift and ensure that your heartrate remains at the right level for your workout.
This is perfect for long, low intensity, recovery or endurance rides to ensure that you don't over-do it and get the maximum intended benefit from your ride.

Apple tv remote
Activate the clicking on the remote. At the moment only the swiping is working correctly but it would help if the clicking with the remote works as expected to move to the next button or screen
50 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this has now been implemented in the latest release (v0.4.10) which is out today. This release significantly reworks the Apple TV remote support, including enabling the button clicks on Gen2 & Gen3 Siri remotes, and support for "Click Only" mode on AppleTV 4K devices.
This should significantly improve menu navigation on AppleTV with the AppleTV remote.
As an alternative, you may also be interested to know that TrainingPeaks Virtual additionally fully supports game controllers (e.g. XBox / Playstation etc) being paired to AppleTV which will therefore give you a much greater number of buttons / joysticks etc to control "hotkeys" when riding and navigating menus.

Functionality to change routes mid ride
I would like to be able to switch routes mid-ride without having to save and start over. The use case for this is that I have completed a route, e.g., for the first time, and now want to tackle something else. Another use case would be switching between hilly and flat routes depending on training needs, e.g., warm up and then intervals.
44 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this has now been implemented in the latest release (v0.4.11) which is out today. This adds a new option to the Action menu bar at the bottom middle of the screen to enable you to select a new route at any time. When selected, you'll immediately be teleported to the start of the route and can immediately ride from there.
This new feature can be triggered in the middle of a workout without interrupting it, and both (or more!) routes that you ride will all be contained within the same FIT file.

WORKOUTS: Handle TrainingPeaks workouts with a power range
My workouts in TrainingPeaks set a power range for long intervals (eg: 125-165w for 60mins). When they appear in TP Virtual, the ranges are changed to slopes (eg: start at 125w then gradually increase to 165w over 60mins).
I'd much rather ride these intervals at a fixed power using ERG mode rather than have it gradually increase or decrease.
Other platforms deal with this by using the middle value of the range as the set power for the entire duration instead of using a slope.56 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this week's release (v0.4.18) now fully supports workouts with ranges for power, cadence and heartrate.
When specifying a range for a given interval (e.g. 180 - 200 Watts) in a workout, TrainingPeaks Virtual will now both explicitly display that range for the interval, as well as only display alerts if you go outside of that range. When using ERG mode for either power based, or heartrate based, workouts, then the trainer resistance will be automatically adjusted to keep you close to the mid-point of the range.

Course profile preview
It would be nice to have a description with profile of course when selecting one to ride rather than just a list of meaningless names.
31 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this is now fully supported in the latest release. Wherever you need to select a route (for example, when confirming a route to ride for a workout, or configuring your own new event) then it will now show you a picture of the route profile, as well as the name of the route.

Don't start the workout until the rider first pedals.
Loaded TPV and selected a ride.
Had to answer a call. Clock time and all looked correct except AP and NP seemed a bit off.
After the workout was saved to TP I had 30 minutes of blank time that was factored into the AP NP calcs.41 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, comments and wider support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
This feature has now been implemented, and will be available in v0.4.5 which is out now on PC, Mac and Android, and will be available on iOS / AppleTV once approved by Apple for release in the AppStore (typically 24-48 hours later).

Pairing screen, clearer information
I’ve answered multiple times now on Facebook and discord as to why ERG isn't working. I've even answered in person, a friend who said TPV is great but erg is rubbish.
It turns out all theses issues are from users pairing their trainer as smart trainer AND powermeter. This is understandable because coming from Zwift, this is what was required on that platform. Whereas on TPV the powermeter is only for secondary power source.
This issue crops up multiple times a week now on social platforms.
The solution would be a little bit of text or pop up message saying…
15 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this has now been implemented in the latest release (v0.4.9) which is out today. This release significantly reworks the pairing process to enable support for a wider range of devices and multi-user environments where there are many different devices all in the same room.
This should address the vast majority of the pairing issues previously experienced (including issues with ERG mode), but if there are any specific devices that TrainingPeaks Virtual still does not recognise, then please feel free to raise a new UserVoice suggestion for that specific device so we can investigate and add support for you.

Two screens of selecting type of login and then user are unnecessary.
Just log in automaticaly and have an option to logout somewhere inside.35 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, comments and wider support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.

camera mode off - maximise training data on the screen
I've just discovered the "camera mode- off" function, which is great. However It'd be good if the training data windows could be maximised to fit the screen in lieu of the virtual environment. This would be particularly useful when using TPV on an ipad / tablet like myself, where I struggle to read some of the tiny data screens
14 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that the latest version out today (v0.4.13) adds the option for "Focussed Mode" workouts. Selecting this option removes all the distractions from the screen and enables you to just focus directly on the core numbers that matter when you just need to get a workout done.

App for iOS and Android, available for download on Apple TV.
I recently reviewed the application but found it only accessible via computer, without an iOS version available for Apple TV that could link to mobile devices. This functionality is offered by Zwift, but unfortunately, I couldn’t find a similar feature in TrainingPeaks Virtual. This limitation prevented me from fully using the software, as I was unable to link my Wahoo KICKR trainer to my Mac. Expanding compatibility to include an iOS version with Apple TV connectivity would significantly enhance usability for users with similar setups.
32 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm pleased to say that TrainingPeaks Virtual is now freely available on Android, iOS (iPad / iPhone) and AppleTV from their respective App Stores.

Add distance and climb to route drop-down menu
I would find it helpful when selecting a route to know the distance and total elevation climb (possibly noted next to the name of the route). Thanks.
17 votesMany thanks for your suggestion, and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this is now fully implemented. Each place where you can choose a route, now displays not only the route length / elevation as suggested, but also a full graph showing the complete route profile.

Display interval completion banner on mini-map
The flame banners for interval completion are great, but they don't appear on the mini-map, which makes them hard to see when round a corner etc. At first glance, these things seem unimportant (there's a timer after all) but it's much easier to work towards a point in the road than to count down seconds.

ERG mode does not release after ending a workout.
ERG mode does not release after ending a workout.
End workout, exit workout, ERG mode will not disengage. Even ending the ride and returning to the Hub doesn't disengage ERG mode (or at least the resistance stays high).
I have to start a new ride (not a workout ride) in order for the resistance to drop to a reasonable level.
19 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that this has now been implemented in the latest release (v0.4.11) which is out today. This significantly improves the pairing infrastructure to resolve issues with ERG mode, sensors and dropouts.

Trainingpeaks virtual login screen
Please only show my account when the app has started up. Now I get the option new/existing/indievelo account. After clicking existing account everytime I again have to click my account name. It would really help if only my account is visible and it only costs one click

Add ability to turn off battery status in UI
My laptop is always plugged in while riding, so the battery status display hardly ever changes. Please make it an option to turn this off as it just adds clutter to the UI.
14 votesMany thanks for your suggestion and support for TrainingPeaks Virtual.
I'm delighted to say that the latest release (v0.4.14) out today now fully implements this suggestion. From the Main Menu > Options > UI Settings you can now select whether to show the battery status indication either "Always", "Only when not full" or "Never" according to your own preferences.
