RELEASE NOTES for 1.90 - UNDER EMBARGO UNTIL RELEASE IS LIVE

Here is what you can expect in the upcoming release and what events are on the horizon. The release is expected to go live Tuesday, May 20th at approximately 15:30 UTC. This release will be a rolling release, meaning we will scale up the percentage of people with the release over a few days to minimize bugs or crashes. Below you will find the updates included in this release. 

All Platforms

  • Zwifters can now manually trigger splits (also known as laps or intervals) when cycling, which are displayed in a new sidebar in the in-game HUD and are included in FIT files
  • Structured workouts will trigger a ”lap” for each interval block, as they always have. To view these splits after your workout, press this context-sensitive Toggle Side Display button which appears when Splits have been triggered.

  • Improved the appearance of flat routes in the mini-map route profile.
  • Fixed an issue that could cause the mini-map elevation profile to be stuck at the start of some routes.
  • Fixed an issue that caused the Leaderboard visibility setting to behave as if it were set to "Auto" when the "Always" setting was selected.
  • Fixed gaps in the roadway on the Douce France route in France.
  • Fixed an issue that could cause the roadway to flicker in some sections on the R.G.V. route in France.

  • Use the tab key on your keyboard. This will not work in a workout, however, as this is the shortcut for skipping the interval.
  • Customize the Zwift Ride drop bar buttons in Zwift Settings → Hardware → Drop Buttons and select the option New Split (L) & Power Up (R).
