3.3 out of 5
I wish it would work
2022-05-23
by Guttvdydt Guy
Less game than Zwift - I like the idea of just riding without the constant chimes and such. The problem is that it is unbelievably buggy. Iām stuck in the same track I was in the first time I tried it. I canāt out. Iām using Apple TV and an iPhone. Last ride I had two avatars both dressed differently, one sitting still with gradient and the course indicator position, the other moving with the current power reading. WahooRGT seemed to have much less than it us meant to have. I didnāt get a screen to connect devices - but they connected. I canāt seem to end my current ride so I am stuck in cap fermentor. When I inevitably switch back to Zwift to use a program that works - running WahooRGT prior kills the sound in Zwift. Itās a mess.
Apps crash - horrible experience
2022-06-24
by Bud Blast
First off, I loathe apps that require a second or companion app to make them work. Which is the case here. You canāt even view the experience on your iPhone. You have download their second RGT screen app which crashes every time. Making you aggravated before you can even start a work out. Zwift has some of the same issues. You want to be trained and get an app that trains and forgets the virtual nonsense? Try using Trainer Road. You pick a workout, cycle and it gives all accurate real time data and offers on screen tips as you go that are on point.
Fantastic Cycling Platform
2022-07-25
by Steve S In MN
Before I tried RGT Cycling, I hated to ride indoors. With RGT, I am motivated to ride much longer and harder.
The free version is fully functional, except it lacks the ability to create courses and select certain RGT courses. However, there are many group rides and races that take place on a huge variety of courses.
There is a learning curve, so be patient.
Great idea horribly executed
2022-08-26
by Bdizzlefizzle
Love the idea and I loved the various free ridesā¦when they worked and when they were available. This is easily the most buggy and least reliable app Iāve ever installed. When it was free, I didnāt mind, but they trimmed back the free rides so much that itās basically pointless and yet it still works so poorly (freezes, wonāt connect or stay connected to your trainer, etc) that itās hard to think paying is a good idea.
They need to make it work before moving the pay wall forward. If it worked, Iād definitely pay.
Apps installed easily and worked on first try with no problems on iPhone 12 Pro Max and iPad Pro (gen 1). The promise of free rides is just a bait and switch though. Free rides have been trimmed back to only 2 and neither is much of a ride. Every other ride is now āPremiumā meaning $$$. Itās not that Iām cheap (well I am a bit) but if an app is pushing free whatever the way that RGT is then I would expect t them to stand behind that. If youāre going to pay then go with Zwift.
best in class
2022-10-28
by Arizona Highway
as an avid (indoor) cyclist, Iāve tried Kinomap, Onelap, Rouvy and Zwift over the past several years and found all to be varying degrees of unsatisfactory
just discovered RGT and am impressed- in large part, WahooRGT is what I have been seeking: user-friendly, eye-catching yet unobtrusive UI; realistic graphics and feel; Strava integration; a variety of colorful routes, kits and bikes; well-designed events for all levels et al
as a bonus, many features are even included with a free account if you do not go premium - which is still 33% less than Zwift
a hearty well-done to the developer for this made-in-the-USA app š
Frustration
2022-11-29
by Ranamp
WahooRGT is an endless source of frustration. I often spend at least 15 minutes just trying to get it started because you have to coordinate the bike sensor, app, and another device. Then you have to push power button to connect the sensor, which is not intuitive at all. They mustāve changed something again and I cannot get this thing going. Itās free and you get what you pay for!
Better than Zwift ? - almost !
2022-12-30
by Greenhouseeffect
A much better platform for group riding or racing than Zwift. Still young and shaking out some niggles. But they will get there.
RGT Cycling is A+ the best indoor cycling experience.
2023-02-01
by JonL1038
Started on RGT recently. So far I am VERY impressed. The ride feel and dynamics of the corner braking, draft and overall experience make this the closest indoor cycling to real life riding that I have ever done. RGT blows that one away other apps for realism. Plus they continually rollout new roads that are real! Very cool RGT!
Been on RGT for a little over a year now and love it. Started with the free version (which is robust in itself) and recently upgraded to premium. Really great community and platform with tons of workouts and races. Canāt wait to see whatās next!
Ride anywhere in the world

I love it. I can make a magic road of any outdoor route and ride it in RGT. This is the main feature that makes it so different from any other indoor cycling software; Great community and excellent events, on real roads.
Zswift is just much better
2023-05-04
by Donotlocast1234
Have been using RGT as an alternative of Zswift for past 3 months. At the beginning, thought it was great, but now Iāll be going back to Zswift for the following reasons:
Magic road graphics are plain and repetitive. Doesnāt make you want to explore like Zswift does. Using ultra or medium mode slows down your PC (using MacBook Air).
Most of the time you are riding alone unlike Zswift which has a nice community feel.
RGT continues to limit free courses. This was the main benefit of using WahooRGT . As they continue to take away free courses, Zswift makes more sense to use.
Recommendations for RGT: invest in better graphics and provide better free courses. Otherwise folks will try your app and go back to Zswift like me!
iPhone 12 and iPad Pro = Does not work
2023-06-05
by Axis Help Me
Newest phone, newest iPad with 1TB of storage... the screen app shows āloadingā or āspawn requestā and then it crashes. I have NEVER had it work! The mobile control app works and shows that you are riding, but the screen app always crashes before ever actually showing any visuals. I was so excited for this.
I have NEVER had zwift crash. I have never had this work.
Wahoo kickr v5 with climb...
Good idea. Poor execution. Worse customer service.
2023-07-06
by DmSweet!
Tried racing on this platform and found the experience frustrating because of bugs and the game mechanics. Reached out with my issues and offered to show them videos of what I struggled with. My concerns were dismissed without consideration and I was told that if I didnāt like it, I should go elsewhere. So thatās exactly what I will do and I suggest you all do the same.
Iāve tried to use it 3 times. It worked once. When it did work, it was great - better physics than other platforms, and I love the fact that it includes braking on corners. Improve the stability and youāll have something here!
Excellent customer support

Switched from Zwift and had some early issues with connecting sensors. Mike with tech support immediately established one on one communications and got the issue corrected. Love WahooRGT .
Great for indoor riding
2023-10-09
by Rphillips207
No frills indoor riding app. Racing is great. Realistic drafting as well as slowing into corners. Paid feature has some great workouts. If all you want to do is break up the monotony of riding indoors with no frills or gamification this is a great app.
Does not connect
2023-11-10
by CXColin
Really looked forward to RGT but keep getting TCP connection fail message. RGT gives workarounds that do not work around. Anyway, to ask me to use a VPN to connect is totally unacceptable. I figure this error message is a scam to get users to buy premium package. Hate Zwift but if I have to pay, Iāll go somewhere I trust.
Getting better
2023-12-11
by Drown Bike Run
Iāve been using RGT for awhile and have experienced some issues. However the team is working hard on fixes and Iāve been happy with it recently. The physics are nice and runs pretty well on my 2010 MBP.
More realistic than Zwift. Newer so work to be done but a great future if they keep it up.
Fulgaz and Zwift had a Baby named RGTš¶
2026-08-08
by Vanvalks
3 rides in and loving it! Personally this hits a sweet spot for me. I'm not a big Zwifter (too gamey and I feel like I'm always lost) and Fulgaz has no social aspect to it, so WahooRGT is just right. I really like the screen + app combo which let's me use my phone for other things while riding. I hope it continues to be developed and gains popularity so that more routes can be added. I've not had bugs or unreliability which some other reviews mention. Using an iPhone and Apple TV. Keep at it RGT!
Great Idea, but
2026-09-09
by Fpschub
One word describes my experience. Buggy. Crashed several times. Keep getting a ācheck your internet connectionā message. this is annoying for two reasons. first, it locks up the program on the computer so I have to reboot to get out of the program and check my connection. second, when i check the connection, it is fine.
the graphics are good, if they could fix the bugs it would be worth using.
Also, this is not an equipment issue. I have high speed internet, a 2020 macbook pro, and iphone Xs max. so it isnāt that my hardware is out of date and unable to run the software.
Bizarre and non functional
2026-10-10
by Listen In
Iāve got a slew of apps to use with my Wahoo KICKR. Zwift, TrainerRoad, Rouvy etc. Each has its own advantages but Iām always interested in trying something new. Especially a platform that allows for a simple means to add my own real world routes.
In principle thatās what RGT Cycling is designed to do.
However, the execution of this platform is bizarre, requiring TWO separate apps to be used on TWO individual devices simultaneously. That is you need to launch WahooRGTāRGT Cyclingāon your phone and ASLO the separate RGT viewer app on an iPad, Mac or AppleTV. Thereās no rational reason to do this and in practice the software is buggy frequently crashing on launch.
I very much wanted to give this platform a fair trial but after failing to get the two apps functioning I gave up and reverted back to Zwift.
Iād love to see the developers get the platform operating with a SINGLE non-crashing app. Then Iād give it a shot again.
Couldnāt get it working
2026-11-11
by Mmtthh1234
Maybe Iām stupid but I could not get it to work. I was excited when I heard about WahooRGT on GCN and immediately installed and registered. After 30 minutes I could not start a ride. My phone had one screen the Apple TV another and both doing their own thing.
My trainer and power meter didnāt connect Again, maybe Iām stupid but a start ride button or connect sensors button would be helpful.
Deleted and absolutely will not waste my time on RGT again. Zwift, trainerroad, and Rouvy all work perfectly, so thereās that.
Downloaded WahooRGT and went to the registration page to fill in information to register a user id. I hit the Register button and nothing happened. I was still on the registration page. Hit register again; nothing. I then thought maybe I was registered. At the sign in page I got a login error. Too bad. I was excited about it after reading an article about it.
Feels pre-beta
2027-01-13
by KC004857281
Crashed on the Apple TV HD 4x in 20 minutes.
It lags like crazy on the Apple TV. It looks like 10fps. Nowhere near smooth.
I warped locations a few times in 20 minutes.
I canāt add friends or find friends.
But the most scathing thing is. I think Iād rather watch Netflix than deal with the mess that is the TV app.
If they can fix the technical issues, then itās worth the time to use. But currently itās more trouble that itās worth.
Fail!

Makes no sense to require two devices, never got the iPad app to connect with the pin, waste of time. I guess you do get what you pay for.
Didnāt Function For Me
2027-03-15
by IStuffUser
I created an account and logged in, but the Apple TV half of WahooRGT just locked up and I couldnāt get it to do anything.)
I am using a Kicker and an iPhone. Easily connected to Apple TV too and Strava. WahooRGT worked flawlessly. I feel the resistance almost instantaneously on my trainer. I download and was riding in less than 15 minutes.
I hope this makes it
2027-06-18
by Neutronx
WahooRGT worked flawlessly a few days ago with my iPhone, appleTV, and Kicker. Today, itās telling me to upgrade even though Iām on the latest version.
Doesnāt work
2027-07-19
by Dat62
I downloaded WahooRGT and it wonāt even open, keeps telling me to download the latest update which was in March 2019. Well its December and it should automatically download the latest version. So disappointed
Pretty buggy, lacking important features
2027-08-20
by Olympus Mons
This is a review for the RGT system as a whole, since both apps are necessary. I tried this with my Assioma Duo power meter pedals, a CycleOps/Saris Hammer H1, an iPhone 8, and iPad Pro 9.7. My internet is fast enough to stream two 4K movies at the same time. I have no problems with Zwift, TrainerRoad, Rouvy, or Xert with my setup. Iām pretty disappointed with RGT, but at least I didnāt spend any money. You might have a better experience if you have different equipment, but Iāll bet that most people will be frustrated with this and go back to Zwift.
The good: the routes are based on real places, they have a free tier, and I was able to get the basic functionality working so that I could ride (power measurements and pairing the two apps together). Thatās it for the good stuff.
The bad: The screen freezes occasionally, which is annoying. There is no power match feature (using the Assioma power measurement instead of the Hammerās). In fact, I canāt even connect the Assiomas and the Hammer at the same time, itās one or the other. When connected to the Hammer, the cadence is about 1000x higher than the true cadence (like it will read 88768 rpm). Erg/sim doesnāt work- when going up a hill the trainer doesnāt increase resistance, so itās like Iām hooked up to a dumb turbo trainer. So the cool features of having a smart trainer doesnāt work.
I realize that it might work better with a different trainer, but my trainer works fine with every other app and canāt be responsible for all of the bugs and canāt be to blame for missing features like power match. RGT has been out for well over a year, but still has a long way to go before you should consider it as a viable alternative to Zwift.
