Zwift, the popular indoor cycling platform, is about to make a significant change to its Apple device compatibility. As of August 4, 2026, Zwift will no longer support Apple devices running iOS 14 or tvOS 14, marking a shift in the company's strategy for device compatibility.
This decision comes as many older devices are now considered unsupported by the operating systems they run. Zwift's statement emphasizes the importance of upgrading to ensure a seamless experience with their 3D game graphics and new features. Users will be notified in-game, urging them to upgrade to iOS 15.0 or later to continue using Zwift.
The impact of this change is particularly relevant for Zwift users who have older Apple devices. Those with devices older than the iPhone 6s, released in 2015, may need to consider switching to a compatible device. Zwift provides detailed lists of supported devices for both the game app and the companion app on their website, offering clarity for users looking to stay in the Zwift community.
This move by Zwift highlights the evolving nature of technology and the need for software updates to keep up with the latest advancements. As users, it's essential to stay informed about such changes to ensure a smooth and uninterrupted experience with our favorite digital platforms.
