Flowrpwr,
Meets my needs but needs refinement
Good: The interface is good. It connects with my trainer great. I can upload my own GPS routes and ride them. I get to experience the elevation changes smoothly. The view shows a cool overhead map view as I progress on the course while also showing current cycling data and an elevation profile- all the things I want at once. The rides will sync with my Strava account automatically if I choose.
Bad: No way to edit my own uploaded GPS workout names/titles. Also - GPS rides feature a “select subcourse” option but there are no subcourses when I select it and no instructions for creating a subcourse in a GPS file. No instructions for the app on TacX or Garmin sites - and no manual either. Tutorial videos? TacX tutorial videos are way too old and don’t match the current program. FAQs don’t scratch the surface.

Great alternative to Zwift, but a few problems remain in training analysis
This is a really outstanding app to use with a smart trainer. The virtual ride experience is much more realistic than Zwift; the model used for the climbing and descending is much better, and the road feel available on a Tacx Neo trainer or Neo Bike is a nice feature.
Problems: both on the iPad and iPhone version, the analysis graphs (of speed, power, heart rate, etc.) available at the end of a ride do not get plotted with proper scaling of the data; much of the data goes off scale, and there is no way currently to resize the y axis of the graphs. This needs to be addressed.
Also: there should be a way to send the ride data to the Garmin Connect service in addition to Strava. At least one would expect that the Garmin Connect service would be an option given that Garmin International now owns Tacx. Maybe this can be added in a future version.
Overall, this is really great app, and I prefer it to using Zwift because these rides available are real world. One can try out the courses for Milan-San Remo or the Tour de France climbs. (I need to be much fitter to survive the latter...).

New user interface as of Nov 2023 makes it hard to use
I have been using this app with my Neo TacX bike trainer fora few years. I run this app from an iPhone 12. The UI issues related to the ability to start a slope or speed without (the only ones I ever use) are no longer on the screen when you start. They added banner buttons/quick links, so now you have to scroll to get to the main functions. Similarly, when in the workout, the metrics are so spaced out you have to scroll. Given you are working out and have sweaty hands - scrolling is a no go. Garmin: please develop and test knowing people are using this on phones and the screens can’t be cluttered up thus requiring scrolling. If multiple screens are needed, a tap on a tab or similar is better than scrolling for workout conditions. UI is hugely important for exercise apps. (Note: this issue got worse with the update they pushed in Nov 2023 - have my post now)
Urkekllao,
Too many bugs
I bought a $1400 tacx neo 2 under the assumption that I would be able to control it. This app is the only controller for the trainer.
It is a disaster. It requires constant internet. Even with a solid WiFi connection the app is extremely slow to respond when setting up a workout. If I turn off my phone screen in the middle of a workout the app fails to restart the workout and I have to force quit and start over. The company advertises pedal stroke analysis on their website but fails to include the feature on mobile. It’s only available when you sit in front of a windows 10 computer while you workout.
If I could return my trainer I would. This is a classic example of making things “smart” and “internet connected” done poorly— with disastrous results. Tacx needs to fix this software as a responsibility to all the customers who paid massive amounts of money for a hamstrung piece of equipment

Easy to use with Garmin devices
This app has numerous options for training as well as supported devices, rides, and view modes (road view, road feel, GPS, you can import your road rides to the app and train with them).
One feature to propose is having Garmin & Tax merge the data from rides recorded on Edges, Fenix Garmin watches with the data recorded in the iPad/iPhone app. Each of the devices records different data, so they should be synced as one whenb used simultaneously.
Ex. my Fenix records my Heart Rate, but the bike does not, neither does the App. So I want to add my HR to the data on the Tax and Garmin Connect. If Edge has it as well, then it wouldn’t be duplicated with the Fenix’s HR data, but perhaps averaged out instead.

A bike trainer app that can only import gps files
Not sure what’s going on here, but the TACX is a bike trainer where I don’t leave my location. Yet, the only workout files I can upload to the trainer are GPX (ie GPS… aka navigation type files)? Who designed this thing and what were they thinking? This should have compatibility with Training Peaks downloadable workouts which are available in FIT files. Not sure why the software engineers haven’t done this.
Additionally, the app will auto log out only AFTER you have you have completed one of your training profiles, not before. When it does this, it has you sign back in and then deletes the last ride you did so that you’ve lost the ride data.
I guess they expect you to log out after every use to prevent this from happening? But then why not just program the app to do that? Makes NO sense.

Firmware Update doesn’t work right
I have a Flux 2 Smart Trainer. When I check the Firmware I’m told it has FW 3.3.45 installed and the current FW Version available is 3.3.40.
Clearly, 3.3.45 is newer and since it’s installed on the trainer it must be more current than 3.3.40. Having worked in IT for over 40 years this tells me that either the app is reading an out of date database/xml/file or that FW Version 3.3.45 had a problem and has been rolled back to 3.3.40. Either way when the app tells me the unit is up to date the FW installed and the current FW should display the same version number.
As a result I don’t know if my FW is actually up to date or not. To add insult to injury this bug has been identified and not fixed for over 3 years if you check the support forums. Clearly the development team for the app and the FW team and the Forum Teams are not communicating and fixing issues.
Additionally, I have not been able to locate a document on the forum that identifies the latest FW for each smart trainer so that I can verify what FW should be available.
If FW 3.3.40 is current the app should enable me to rollback to it.

PStu1219,
Good but needs a few more tweaks
So I’ve done 5 rides on my Tacx Trainer using the app on my iPad. I’m really enjoying the options in Tacx, but I have a few suggestions for improvement.
- Better user support: the guides online at Garmin are the same a as the basic setup guide shipped with the trainer, and the app doesn’t really help there, either. I had to Google for tips on how to set everything up and get started.
- real-time prompts: some audio cues while in a workout would be helpful, including prompts when you get out of a training zone
- Upload photos when syncing to social media: I’ve only figured out how to upload the map and data to Strava, but my friends who use Zwift can show some screen captures from their rides. If you were picking a training app and were using yours friends’ activities as a guide, which one would look more attractive? Personally I like the real life videos rather than a video game interface.
- Ride analysis is messed up. My screen only shows three bottom part of the graphs for speed, power, cadence, etc., but I can look at all that in Strava, anyways.

Worst
I spent hundreds of dollars on downloading films and I can’t play them in this app. I hear they want recurring revenue and they want you to subscribe. Like a razor and razor blade. But a razor costs next to nothing. It is bull that Tacx expects you to pay almost a thousand dollars for the razor and then wants to charge you another 200 bucks a year to use the razor. Total ripoff. Time to look into Wahoo.
Plus you used to be able to make gps routes of your outside rides and use them on the trainer using the cycling app which was great and it was free. Now they expect you to pay to do that.
I want the 3000 dollars back that I spent on 3 Tacx trainers plus the cost of the movies I bought all of which are now useless as this app is also clunky. It’s awful that Garmin stole this ability from me AFTER I bought the product. I want the money to go get Wahoo equipment because they at least live to their commitments.

GregTacx,
Lost all my Tacx data
When Tacx cloud migrated and merged with Garmin cloud, all my Tacx data were lost! The app would keep repeating the two accounts had merged successfully, but in reality all Tacx data (rides, activities, workouts, personal settings etc.) were lost. No chance to fix this, the customer support doesn’t reply to emails, the customer support webpages don’t even load. All this came on top of Garmin’s decision to cancel Tacx previous model and brought in monthly subscriptions for the things (GPS rides, videos etc.) that we had paid for before, when buying the trainer, the software, the videos... So much of my money, time and frustration went into this, with poor to no result. A huge disappointment, Garmin lost their credibility completely. I’m seriously considering selling all my Garmin equipment and switching over to Wahoo.
