I found that the app is working better on my Oculus Quest so far vs. the Oculus Go for the turns, but I just appreciate your team has designed something that makes stationary cycling fun again.

I was also wondering if there were any plans to integrate heart rate sensor compatibility with your app. I'm using a Keiser stationary bike that has a bluetooth display and it works with my existing heart rate monitor and though that would be cool to integrate that into your VZFit app.
Also, although I also have a Fitbit, I prefer using my Apple watch to track my activity so I wonder if there's any plans for Apple Watch compatibility in the future so that it ties into the Apple Health app. I realize these are wish list items that take a while to develop and test, but just thought I'd put it out there if there's a way to poll the data from the Apple watch (heart rate info) back into a VzFit app to gather the data if you allow permissions that way.
The update will be automatic like other Oculus apps. If you leave your Oculus headset in standby while charging and not completely off. If an update is released when the headset is on, you will see it in the Updates section of your Library to install manually, and if you run the game the headset will ask if you want to update it first. Let us know if you have any trouble!
One of your sensors (the cadence or the speed) is registered with VZfit. If you find you want the other one, because they have somewhat different behaviors, email support@virzoom.com and we'll be happy to reset it.
It's in our backlog to show bluetooth heartrate. We already do so in our HUD for the VZ Bike, where heartrate is part of the same bluetooth connection, but we don't yet support multiple device connections.
Fitbit and iWatch don't broadcast heartrate, and we can't add workouts to Apple Health directly like with Fitbit. It may be possible to write an iWatch app that reads your heartrate, and could send it to our game display, and also read back from our game to update Apple Health. A little research shows this is how Zwift Companion app does it. A real companion app is on our list and may be worth it, but for now "vzfit.com" is our companion app that works on all devices, that just can't access device-specific behaviors
