Using ant+ via the companion app #77

Closed perrin4869 closed 5 months ago

The README suggests that you could pair an ant+ sensor via the companion app. Also, the comment here also suggests the same. However, I didn't have any luck using an ANT+ dongle on my android phone as suggested here (I think this only works with the android version of the Zwift, not the companion?), and this post suggests that ant+ is also not supported via the companion app. Was wondering which is correct, and if it's possible, how to connect an ANT+ HRM to Zwift? Thanks!

I don't think ant+ works with the companion app. Probably just a minor flaw in the README

gotcha! thanks for the clarification!

just out of curiosity, do you know of some method to connect an ant+ HRM device to zwift running on wine? I tried to use https://github.com/starryalley/CSC_BLE_Bridge on one spare android phone and connect my main phone running the companion app to it, but didn't have any luck, and have no other ideas how to do this 😅
