In a recent post ZwiftInsider detailed all information contained in the "Nearby Zwifters" sidebar. This sidebar has evolved over a number of years and now contains a LOT of information packed into a very small space on the screen.

Hi Shane. I had my friend watch your video on recovering your luggage from the Melbourne airport using the Apple airtag, as he and his wife were leaving the next day for Germany. He bought the airtags, and is thankful he did. His wife got her bag after being in Germany for 5 days, and he didn’t get his bag until they were flying back to Canada 17 days later when they went to the airport in Munich and he did exactly what you did at the Melbourne airport. He got the airport staff to go through 2 rooms full of luggage until the app tracked his bag to another room where the app said his bag was. The staff member said they had no plan in place to get any of the luggage back to their owners as they were so short staffed. Crazy. Anyway…thank you for your video.

Thanks for this Shane. Very helpful. I do have a question about the number of Zwifters in the Event or on the Current Map, assuming not in an event, is that number based on riders within a certain range (distance)? or the entire map?

where the orange jersey represents pro cyclists, green jerseys represent pro triathletes. Pro runners are a pink-ish vest. there are also jerseys for KOM/QOM holder and sprint leaders, which last for an hour or until they are bettered
@DaveCM
@DaveCM Рік тому
Until they are bettered or you don't match your effort. I learned that one when I repeated a climb and didn't match my KOM effort and the KOM jersey disappeared. 🤷 I mean, I still had the fastest time at the time! Oh, well.

@rexringschott

I often see different coloured jerseys, green, polka dot (even yellow I think) and others next to riders who don't appear to have done anything remarkable to get such jerseys. I presume that the game resets old records every day or something allowing new jerseys to be issued. Any clues as to how that works and what the full list of jerseys are?

Question, during a KOM or Sprint section there is a pop up that will be in the left side. At the very bottom there are various colored dots. Do these mean anything?
@gplama

They're all the different timed segments (sprints, KOMs, etc) on the world you're in. You can click on them (mouse or touchscreen) to scroll through them.
@marcus_velo_9970
@marcus_velo_9970 Рік тому
thanks. now what's missing - ; clear notification of sprint point, can't see little green line when in large groups big oversight for a virtual game where it would be easy to pop up a banner i.e. 'sprint start in 200 metres for example' (can't expect to memorize every course). Event name and current course if in group ride. mini map - what are they trying to do here? Yes you can see where you are relative to others, but the cryptic little logos whatda????, on a climb, still looks flat, no elevation/distance to go. guess I expect information on the level of what I access on my Wahoo/Gamin/Hammerhead display. In fact, why not have a virtual cycle computer that could be customized and displayed.

I've seen a orange jersey that has an Arrow that is pointing back towards its tail. Please explain Shane
@Shaonia
@Shaonia Рік тому
Orange jerseys are usually given for segments that are longer than sprints, such as laps and routes (i.e. Hilly Loop in Watopia and the Flatland Loop in Makuri). The arrow means that the rider is now riding in the opposite direction to the direction they earned the jersey in. The arrow is sort of wonky and also sometimes appears when the rider takes a turn along a route.

Whats everyone’s thoughts on Zwift not supporting older iOS and operating systems? Left a bad taste in my mouth. I have an older iPad that I have been running Zwift on since 2018. I don’t have any other system to run Zwift on. Would there be a way of them doing what Sonos did and leaving the older systems with no more updates but still letting us use the platform?
@gplama
@gplama Рік тому
They either take on the support load of supporting operating systems that the vendors themselves no longer support and live with restrictions on that, or they sunset support for older systems which allows them to do a lot more. Case in point the older IOS has limits on the size of apps/updates/etc, so supporting older IOS means the majority of users are also impacted. Jump on any forum and you'll see people complaining about Zwift graphics and their lack of development. In the same threads people want support for almost 10 year old OS. There's no pleasing everyone when it comes to technology and progress.
@tomandsamuel
@tomandsamuel Рік тому
Totally get all that and fully understand. I just think that after paying for Zwift all these years, it would be nice to have an option. In the UK, money is tight with everyone around the cost of living and energy prices. Fitness is the thing that people rely on to escape all of that for a brief period, similar to the lockdowns of 2020/21. I’m not saying it is down to Zwift to fill in for the governments shortcomings, but I do question the timing. Some people are happy with less than optimal graphics and no more updates if it means still having access to the platform. Similar to people being happy with not having the latest Kickr or Neo to get the tiny power reading reliability’s. I suppose the timing is my biggest problem will all of this…cheers Shane
