It\u2019s been a hot minute since I\u2019ve done an indoor trainer app roundup<\/a>, and in some ways the landscape has changed, and in others it\u2019s kinda still same-same. The same major players are still all here, though consolidated a bit by who owns them. Still, the biggies remain \u2013 and include the likes of Zwift, TrainerRoad, MyWhoosh, Rouvy, FulGaz, Peloton, Tacx Training App, and TrainingPeaks Virtual.<\/p>\n But then beyond that there are basically three buckets of smaller apps, which I\u2019d probably divide into the following categories (note I use \u2019smaller\u2019 here in the context compared to the ones above):<\/p>\n Group A) Smaller-ish apps that have been around the block a long time but have a following: e.g. Kinomap<\/a>, BigRingVR<\/a>, Wahoo SYSTEM<\/a>, Xert<\/a>, etc\u2026<\/p>\n Group B) Newer-ish smaller apps that have gained popularity or notoriety in the last little while: e.g BikeTerra<\/a>, Vieta<\/a>, etc\u2026<\/p>\n Group C) The gazillions of mostly AI-created trainer apps that vary wildly in concept\/support\/etc\u2026<\/p>\n Now, with that said, one of the reasons I\u2019ve fallen behind on keeping my trainer apps list up to date is that it\u2019s mostly nightmare fuel to do properly. Sure, I could create a quick list of all the apps out there, pretend I rode them as most publications do, and then call it a review. Or, they just ask some AI platform to quickly make a list with some screenshots. But that\u2019s not my style. I actually want to ride these apps, and there\u2019s no AI-written garbage here. Many of them I\u2019ve ridden already for years, either frequently or infrequently. So I\u2019m familiar with some of them.<\/p>\n But there\u2019s a whole lot of ones in Group C above that I\u2019ve never heard of (and frankly, might disappear next week after someone stops paying a hosting fee). Some of these are totally wild (in a good way), and many of them are free. But tracking them all in my inbox is mostly impossible. Meaning, even if you\u2019ve e-mailed me about them, I\u2019d strongly recommend dropping it below in the comments too. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n So, here\u2019s the deal: To make this semi-manageable, I\u2019ve already started on a number of apps to be included in an updated guide, and I\u2019m gonna keep chugging over the next 7-10 days on riding a bunch of the newer apps. But, knowing there\u2019s a lot of interesting apps out there, consider this open season for posting the app below in the comments section.<\/p>\n Anyone is welcome to post an app name and\/or link. If you\u2019ve created the app \u2013 cool, go forth! If you\u2019ve ridden the app, I\u2019m game too (and to hear your thoughts, good and\/or bad).
