Early Reviews

Shane Miller

Long time Zwifter, Shane Miller, created a great video review and breakdown of the Apple TV 4k and Zwift. Here is his complete breakdown.

DC Rainmaker

Looking for something a little more in-depth and with step by step images? DCRainmaker has you covered with his post. He breaks down why you will love Zwift on Apple TV. We like this quote particularly:

“Overall, this is actually the cheapest way to get cookin’ on Zwift. There’s no other device that’ll support Zwift for under $150, let alone do it for other things in 4K for under $180. That’s amazing. And the quality is great, likely better than most people’s leftover computer hardware that they’ve repurposed to Zwift today.”

One more thing…

Did we convince you yet? Well hopefully this will do the trick. One of our Zwifters loves riding using Apple TV so much they made a custom holder for the remote!
