Also side tech note….wondering if anyone else has had this issue (admittedly a niche issue)
When running TR on my laptop using ANT+, and Zwift on my AppleTV ( and using Companion app to pair devices), when I connect the Play controllers, it prevents the ERG mode on TR from taking control of the trainer.
As soon as I disconnect the Play controllers ( but still use the Companion app for other devices), Erg mode functions as normal on TR.
Anyone else experienced this?

I will have to try a test on this. I almost never load the Play’s when I am following a TR workout in normal use.

Let me know if you have the same issue…
My setup was as follows:
Laptop
- Running TR
- paired via ANT+ to Saris H3 and Wahoo Tickr
AppleTV (pairing via companion app and BT)
- Saris H3 as power source only (not resistance)
- Cadence via Saris H3
- Wahoo Tickr
- Zwift Play Controllers
Having experience the problem once (and doing my workout via Resistance mode), I tried starting the workout, making sure Erg was engaged and operating properly and then starting ATV and pairing through the companion app. Once the controllers connected, Erg went to poop on TR. Got out of Zwift, restarted and connected everything except Play and it was fine.
I will give this a basic shot, but I am running a PC for both TR & Z app. The Apple TV is for my wife’s setup, so my testing will differ from yours a bit.
I also tend to use the Direct Connect option for TR on the PC, but can swap to ANT+ to test.

Well, I got distracted with some family stuff last night and went into autopilot once I got on the traine.
I will flag this to test over the weekend.

Any updates on this…haven’t been able to run Zwift (on Bluetooth) & TR (via ANT) since th who date with ERG issues

A workout connection with TR/Zwift would be amazing (but I doubt it will happen?). Im currently running both TR/Zwift on my laptop with TR controlling the trainer and Zwift for entertainment/motivation with the leveling up and what not, and it would really simplify my setup.

Finally an improved HUD……

I’m hoping TrainerRoad is one of the launch partners for the training API, but in any case, Zwift opening up an API to import workouts means the ball is in TR’s court. Fingers crossed! And hopefully that API is something anyone can get access to, I’ve been messing around with a command line tool to create workouts from a text prompt using ChatGPT, it’d be cool if I could integrate directly with Zwift.

Indeed. Quick look seems improved & promising. I’m curious how much is actually customizable.

Yeah, no idea if TR will finally take that step, but the API side on Zwift seems as open as it will ever be. I expect renewed calls for integration from TR users and think it would be a smart step by TR to take it on.

If I never have to build out another TR workout in zwofactory / export it / import it, again, it’ll be too soon. Please, TR, I beg of you.

I merged your post under the existing thread on Zwift updates (including this and other related links to the API announcement today).
Covering the other base, I already added the link and “bump” to the existing feature request:
