UI/UX: Minimap to show your location more precisely
The minimap shows your position as an arrowhead. The arrowhead is clear, but quite good. It would be very helpful to know where in the arrowhead you are, to understand how you relate to the dots ahead and behind of the arrowhead. Perhaps a black dot at the exact location?

WORKOUTS: Need to enhance workout import functionality onto Mac/Need to address AppleTV functionality broadly
I have been unable to have the program run in a stable and non-halting manner on AppleTV. Every other cycling app is running well. And it takes forever to acceptably make entries to logon because of cursor issues with the remote. It is unusable on AppleTV. Having said that, it runs great on my Mac Laptop. However, I am unable to import structured workouts from my TrainingPeaks library. The file identified for doing so in online instructions is not discoverable on my Mac. This should be addressed with a simple import button that can be directed to any file or…

OTHER: How to navigate TPV
After watching the last TP YouTube video about TPV (great video; George Gilbert is a brilliant guy), how about a weekly 10-minute video showing how to use/navigate TPV? It could help those who are new to TPV.

PLATFORMS: Roku Version
I love that this has been added to Apple TV. Unfortunately, I don’t have that device. I am hopeful that this development means there is capability to expand to other platforms, such as Roku. Is a Roku edition in the works?
Warm regards!

PAIRING: WattBike cadence support
On the WattBike Trainer (old version of the Air, I think) at the gym the power sensor is read reliably over Bluetooth. However, the cadence sensor is never found. Oddly, TP Virtual does find a couple of cadence sensors for rowers in the gym nearby. Additionally, my Coros watch correctly picks up cadence from the Wattbike. In turn this tells me the scan for cadence is working, and the Wattbike is broadcasting cadence data. It's just that TP Virtual is not picking this up.

EVENTS: Points for Stage Races
To better mimic stage races there should be an option when creating a race as part of a series to have a scratch race which also includes separate points categories for sprint and mountain sprint locations. At present you must make it a points race and there is no differentiation between sprint and mountain points leaving to the organiser to dole out the jerseys.

MECHANICS: Join GPX files together
For quite some time now, I have been toying with the idea of virtually cycling all three climbs of Mont Ventoux in one day.
In principle, completing the route that is necessary in the real world to be accepted into the club Les Cinglés du Mont-Ventoux.
This iconic moutain is very popular without a question, i dare to say.
Climbs of the mountain have be integrated in étapes of the Tour de France more than 15 times.
To date, there are almost 20000 members of the club Les Cinglés du Mont-Ventoux, all having accomplished the above challenge with a certificate.…

PAIRING: 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

WORLD: Improve the sound design to make TPV more immersive
There are already plenty of suggestions to improve TPV’s graphics, aiming to make the experience more immersive and realistic. I fully support these ideas and I’m genuinely excited about all the positive developments in that area. However, I believe one crucial element of immersion is still being underdeveloped: sound.
The feeling of realism, of getting absorbed, of truly being present, isn’t just about visuals. Sound is just as important. I’d even go so far as to say that sound is a key reason why I still find Zwift the most immersive of the three options: TPV, BikeTerra and Zwift. If…

UI/UX: Change camera 1 slightly
Camera 1 goes further back, as we go faster.
Could it also go "higher on descents" and "lower in uphills" ? (otherwise the top HUD hides the riders a few meters in front, up the hill) ?
Maybe the camera could duck down and zoom in if you are aero tucking too3 votes -
HUB: Show ranking changes on TPV hub
Often you don't see ranking changes from an event if you leave before it finishes. Your rank changes can be seen in game, but it would be good if you could see the impact a race has had on your profile in the TPV hub.

WORKOUTS: Start riding immediately
When I'm doing a workout from TrainingPeaks, I don't want to have to reselect all the settings, wait forever for my smart trainer to connect, etc. I should be able to save a profile that I can just click into and start doing the workout.

HUB: Customisable buttons in HUB app
On the Remote tab in the HUB app, it’s quite hard to navigate through the options efficiently using the arrows and enter.
It would be good to be able to choose a few of the most popular in-game buttons to have as a direct button press. Eg - cruise control or join.3 votes -
WORLD: Improved in Game Lighting Effects
Is there a way to make the lighting in the game more dynamic or realistic?
I was thinking about ways to achieve it.
1. Unity game engine lighting tuning
2. Enable Unity 6.0+ support for HDR
3. Monitor specific setting for dynamic contrast <-- This is what I used...It really added depth and realism to TPV. Riding through shadows (at night/moonlight) and then into an open area with moonlight was impressive. It also made the textures look significantly better and "pop visually."
Enhancing the lighting/shadow effects within the game would significantly improve the overall experience.

OTHER: Allow updates to be optional / deferred
There has to be a better way of doing updates. It would be great if the request to downloads of new updates be moved from the start of a session to the end of a session. Zwift does this as well and its a really bad design. If the software update is a large download an you have a slow connection, you can be blocked from starting your cycle session for quite some time or even miss a scheduled race which is worse. I would like to a option/warning at the end of my session to do the update now…

PAIRING: External Camera to determine rider position for CdA
Using external cameras (like webcams) and machine learning to determine the rider's actual riding position (on the drops, hoods, top, standing, seated, etc.) to change the virtual avatar riding position and also their CdA.

UI/UX: Improve AppleTV virtual gear control
Please map the AppleTV remotes +/- buttons to increase / decrease power (in ERG or cruise control) and increase / decrease virtual gear (all other modes). This would be an incredibly useful shortcut. Reasons why all other solutions are not meeting my demand:
- Navigating the Menu to increase / decrease difficulty is very cumbersome and takes time, also when doing it with the virtual remote of TPvirtual Hub
- adding game controllers is not possible on AppleTV as no USB port is available and only two Bluetooth connections can be made which are needed for the trainer, power meter…3 votes -
UI/UX: Show positioning arrows when primary dashboard not shown
To be clear: not the route selection arrows, but the arrow that show if you have chosen to move the bike to the left or right of the road/group. The positioning arrows.
Use case: The zones provide really good information and I find that I don’t need the dashboard if I have them up, and this also frees up some screen real estate. But I do want to see the positioning arrows. Could they be separated from the dashboard and made a distinct item?

HUB: Cleaner integration between The Hub and the App
The process of using the TPv Hub is still a bit cumbersome. Need a faster and simpler way to choose events and message the people you ride with.
