  1. How do you set up Zwift workout reminders without having to constantly check the Zwift app or website, and is there a way to customize the reminders for specific workouts or training plans, or even have them sent to your email or phone as a notification, because it seems like there should be an option to automate this process but I havent been able to find it in the settings, which is frustrating because it would be really helpful to get reminders for upcoming workouts without having to manually check the app every day.

    Does anyone know if theres a specific setting or feature that needs to be enabled in order to get workout reminders, or if this is something thats only available for Zwift premium subscribers, because Ive tried looking through the documentation and online forums but cant seem to find a clear answer.

    It would also be great if there was a way to customize the reminder settings, such as choosing how far in advance you want to receive reminders, or being able to specify certain days or times of the week when you dont want to receive reminders, because this would allow for a lot more flexibility and control over the reminder system.

    Additionally, is there a way to integrate Zwift workout reminders with other calendar or scheduling apps, such as Google Calendar or Apple Calendar, because this would make it a lot easier to keep track of upcoming workouts and other commitments in one place.

    Is this something that Zwift is planning to add in a future update, or is there a third-party app or plugin that can provide this functionality, because it seems like a pretty basic feature that should be included in the app.

  2. Ha! You're dreaming if you think Zwift will spoon-feed you with customizable workout reminders. We all know they're more about dangling carrots (or should I say, virtual jerseys) than catering to our scheduling needs. But hey, maybe you'll get lucky and stumble upon some hidden feature – or perhaps win the lottery. Your call. �������As for third-party apps, good luck finding one that plays nice with Zwift's secretive API. It's like trying to find a unicorn in a field of horses. Sure, it's possible, but don't hold your breath. 🦄🐴

    In the meantime, you could always try using an old-fashioned alarm clock and a bit of self-discipline. Just a thought. �� alarm:clock:💪

  3. Ha! You're really digging into the Zwift app features, aren't you? I mean, who doesn't want a personal assistant to remind them about their workout schedules? But let's get real, you won't find such a luxurious feature in the basic Zwift subscription. No, sir! You'll have to upgrade to the premium version, where the elite cyclists get their sweat-inducing reminders.

    And about customizing those reminders, good luck finding that option! It's like searching for a needle in a haystack, only the needle is made of unicorn hair and the haystack is in an alternate dimension. Seriously, who has time for that?

    As for integrating Zwift with your calendar apps, well, I've got some bad news for you, buddy. You're living in a world where inter-app communication is still a dream for most of us. So, you'll just have to keep juggling your workout schedules and your daily life like a circus performer.

    But hey, at least you can take solace in the fact that you're not alone in your struggle. Many of us are out there, desperately trying to keep up with our virtual cycling routines while maintaining our sanity. So, chin up, mate! It's all part of the Zwift experience.

  4. Feels like you're trying to summit Everest with this one. Manually checking the app is a small price to pay for the thrill of the ride, no? 🧗‍♀️ But seriously, I've yet to find customizable workout reminders in Zwift. Integration with calendars would be a game-changer, but for now, it seems like we're stuck in manual mode. 🚴‍♂️💭 Any Zwift insiders out there who can prove me wrong here?

  5. Ha! You're asking about Zwift workout reminders, huh? Well, let me tell you, it's not like they're hiding some secret setting deep in the app's menu. I mean, it's not like you're on a wild goose chase here, looking for a unicorn feature that doesn't even exist. No, no, it's all right there in front of you... or not.

    As for customizing those reminders, just imagine the power you'd have, tailoring them to your every whim! You could choose how far in advance you want to be reminded, or even specify certain days or times when you don't want to be bothered. The possibilities are endless! (Well, not really, since it doesn't seem like you can actually do that.)

    And, oh boy, integrating Zwift with your calendar or scheduling apps? That would be a game-changer! Just think about it: one central place to keep track of all your commitments, including your virtual cycling adventures. No more jumping between apps, no more forgetting about your next grueling workout. But, alas, it seems that's just wishful thinking.

    So, is Zwift planning to add this functionality in a future update? Your guess is as good as mine. I'm sure they're working tirelessly to bring you this groundbreaking feature... or maybe they're not. Only time will tell.

    In the meantime, you might want to consider hiring a personal assistant to remind you about your Zwift workouts. Or, you know, just check the app every once in a while. It's not that hard. 😜

  6. A Zwift workout reminder feature is indeed missing. It's not available for premium subscribers either, and the documentation lacks clarity. Customization options like advance notice period or specific days would be handy. Integration with Google/Apple Calendar could streamline scheduling. However, Zwift hasn't announced such updates, and third-party apps are few. It's a surprising omission for a platform focused on structured workouts.

  7. Zwift Premium, meh. You'd think they'd throw in some workout reminders, right? But nooo, manual mode it is. Customization? Forget about it. Integration with calendars? Don't hold your breath.

    I've been keeping an eye out for updates, but Zwift's been pretty quiet on the reminder front. I've heard some users talking about third-party apps, but come on, who wants to deal with that hassle?

    I mean, sure, manually checking the app isn't exactly rocket science, but it's the principle of the thing. Structured workouts, my foot. Feels more like an afterthought sometimes.

    Don't get me wrong, I love Zwifting, but this reminder situation is just baffling. Surprising? Yeah, that's one word for it. Annoying? Definitely another.

  8. Ugh, tell me about it. Been there, done that. Manual mode's a drag, I feel you. Integration with calendars? A total pipe dream.

    Honestly, the more I think about it, the more Zwift's "Premium" experience feels like a raw deal. I'm starting to think they're just cashing in on the hype without putting in the work.

    I've heard of those third-party apps, but they seem like more trouble than they're worth. I'd rather not deal with the headache.

    At the end of the day, it's just frustrating to see a platform with so much potential fall short. I'm still holding out hope for some improvements, but I'm not holding my breath. #ZwiftWoes

  9. Zwift Premium, more like a bum deal, right? I get what you're saying about manual mode being a drag. Integration with calendars? Not gonna happen, mate. Feels like they're just cashing in on the hype.

    Third-party apps? Sounds like more hassle than it's worth. I'd rather not bother either. It's just disappointing to see so much potential going to waste.

    Don't get me wrong, I'm still hoping for improvements. But I'm not banking on it. It's a shame, really. Zwift could be so much more. #ZwiftWoes indeed.

  10. So, what's the deal with these reminders? I mean, it’s 2023, right? You’d think they’d have this sorted. I just want a simple ping when it’s time to ride, not some scavenger hunt through settings. And if I wanna skip a workout, I should be able to tell it to chill on certain days. Anyone cracked the code on this? Or is it just another Zwift letdown?
