Changelog

We recommend installing the update via the update system in ROUVY (start the App -> Menu -> About -> Check updates).

Version 4.5.5

This release solves compatibility issues with Zwift hardware.

Version 4.5.2

• Pace partners: You can now ride with a virtual rider set to a specific average power output. Target W/kg is manually adjustable, and drafting is enabled to maintain realistic aerodynamic benefits. Virtual partners are now integrated into the Pace Partners section as User-based partners with an improved interface.
• Ride mode visibility: Ride together, whether you're in Workout or Ride mode. Both modes now use the same physics, so everyone on the same route can see each other. Each rider's active mode is clearly displayed in the Nearby Riders list and above their avatar.
• Earn as you go: Coins are now awarded for any distance ridden, even if the route is not completed in a single session. You can return to finish the route and collect the remaining Coins.
