With the increase in price of Zwift, I might take a new look. But I doubt it would run on my laptop which I'd rather use than my PC. I do know they have a less performance based version for mobile and apple tv, but I haven't done enough research to know what's up with it

I was able to run it on my phone (Samsung Galaxy A54) with no problems at all and cast to my TV. The graphics were surprisingly good. It linked to my Kickr Snap fairly well, although I had to restart it a couple of times to pair properly. Levels of resistance felt pretty similar to what I was getting previously with RGT. For what I want it for (solo rides to keep my fitness through the winter months), it's pretty much spot on.

The problem is for that money you can get a full gym membership, even after like zwifts "discount". And all these cycling apps have major issues unless you also want to buy new equipment. Many equipment stops being supported. Many don't work at all. Many don't work properly. Support is disgusting on every single 1 of these biking apps. The pool of people is minor on a lot of them. It has nothing to do with people wanting to save on toilet paper. It has everything to do with it simply being overpriced. That's why people are looking at the free options. I used to use wahoo rgt simply because it free. I for example also play football, padel and have a mini home gym. Paying a subscription while it's not your main sport is simply a waste. I much rather use that money to expand my homegym for example.

I tried it last night, graphics performance was truly AWFUL. I tried switching the graphics modes - Low gave me 20 FPS but looked like an arcade game from the 1980s, Medium had lots of glitching/shadowing around my avatar, and High gave me as low as 6 FPS. This is on the same laptop which runs Zwift, RGT, and indieVelo really well. We haven't all got high-end gaming PCs in our garages.

They don't support the Mac OS platform for now. I was told they work on it for the end of this year. This won't impact the majority of people and there is clunky work arounds, but it's keeping me from using it right now. And then I am anyway not a big fan of everything virtual but probably I will sooner or later end up with augmented reality like Rouvy or FulGaz or similar.
