Rouvy Workouts Mobile

I’ve tried all of the similar apps: Zwift, Sufferest, Fulgaz, etc. For my wants and needs Rouvy does it all and does it well. I love being able to upload my routes and train on them when necessary. If I want to try other routes, like, for example, Tour De France, stages, well I can do that too. Zwift of course has group rides and races. If that’s important to you then Zwift is your best bet. Just remember, you’ll be riding on a cartoon-like courses. For me, I chose Rouvy. Give it a try. You won’t be disappointed.

Honestly the title says it all. I love what service they provide, but the User Interface is terrible. For example, not being able to use the map to find routes on an iPhone but having it on an iPad is just lazy coding. They have the feature, but don’t make it possible on the iPhone. Another frustration is picking routes. Many routes have similar (or the same exact) routes and picking the right one can be difficult on the map (which isn’t on the iPhone as mentioned above). Not being able to filter routes by those that have video (or any other feature you want) is just ridiculous to not have in 2019. Also why is the iPad version so ridiculous with the HUGE information panel on the left that covers up part of the video. I love the iPhone layout while actually riding. Minimalistic and unobtrusive while providing exactly the information you need right here and now.

If you set up right the app will work and the fun is endless. Had to buy a Bluetooth HRM so to pair with app. I’ve been training for 2 weeks and already feeling the power rising lol. There’s no sound so choose your music on the side. I tried using iPad with Apple TV and it’s cool that it splits, you get the map on iPad and reality on TV. I’m using a Bluetooth smart trainer and works for me. It’s freezing these days in NJ and I’m a proud parent so to be able to train hard at home like this it’s amazing. Recommended.

I’ve used this app for 6 months. I loved it but the past two months there has been an issue with data missing on the screen. I have opened multiple support cases and still don’t have an answer. One person tells me they are working on it and another tells me there is no issue. I’m frustrated. I pay for premium for a full year and can’t get a straight answer

I subscribed to Rouvy after the two week free trial period and I swear it worked better four months ago than it does now. I could write volumes about the clunky, overburdened and inflexible UI/UX, the 24 hour delay in uploading a workout, and the endless unintuitive menus, but what really drives me insane is its inconsistent calibration interface with my KICKR. No matter if you run a calibration or not, you have no idea if the app will work or if you’ll have to pedal like SAGAN in your highest gear to barely move the bike on modest inclines. It’s like they completely screwed up how gravity works vs. watts vs. grade. That said, the routes are beautiful and there is a decent selection - but what’s the point if you’re 120% of FTP on a 3% grade just to make turn the pedals over? Hold out for six months on purchasing this app until it gets an overdue, major overhaul.
