MyWhoosh: Indoor Cycling App

authentic rating

A free replacement for Zwift that people are genuinely grateful for after the competitor raised its price, with good structured workouts and professional trainer videos. But the same thing spoils it: on nearly every launch the app forces a huge update and re-downloads the same 9 GB of maps because the update wipes them. Add freezes on Apple TV and connection drops to the trainer mid-ride.

About the rating

Reviews are very detailed, the recurring 9 GB of maps re-downloaded weekly, freezes on Apple TV, cadence sensor detected as a power device. The gap between textAvg 2.86 and storeAvg 3.67 is moderate and looks like honest polarization for a free product.
