"You must have a VZfit-compatible sensor" - emalafeew - 04-02-2020
Some of you have asked about the "You must have a VZfit-compatible sensor" message when hitting the A button on startup.
It is not an error, just an informative statement that goes along with the PEDAL TO CONNECT BIKE screen. You just have to pedal like normal to connect.
We show that message because VZfit now supports cadence sensors and you can download and run the games before you have one. Also because VZfit now only connects to its last sensor by default, and shows "Press A for new sensor" under PEDAL TO CONNECT BIKE instead of the compatibility message. When you hit A then (after connecting the button) it goes to the compatibility message and scans for any nearby sensor like before.
We realize now that everyone is conditioned to hit the A button multiple times on startup, and are therefore going right to that mode. It's not harmful, but we didn't intend to alarm anyone.
So the next builds will use the B button instead for that purpose, and say "Press B to connect to a different sensor". And we'll change the compatibility message to "If you can't connect, make sure to have a VZfit-compatible sensor".
Hopefully that clarifies things!

We just released minor updates with this change to avoid further confusion.
