About

Your treadmill, on Zwift. Treadmill Smart Speed turns your iPhone into a Bluetooth running speed and incline sensor. Set the speed you are running on screen and your iPhone broadcasts it, exactly as a footpod would — so Zwift, and any other app that reads a running sensor, sees your treadmill. No footpod, no treadmill upgrade, no extra hardware. GETTING CONNECTED 1. Start pairing in Zwift. Open the pairing screen and choose the run speed sensor slot. 2. Look for this iPhone by its own name. The app cannot change how it appears — to change what Zwift shows, rename the phone in Settings › General › About › Name. 3. Wait for the pill to turn green. It reads Connected once a fitness app is receiving speed. Until then it reads Discoverable. BUILT TO BE READ MID-RUN The screen is made to be read at arm's length, in a dim room, while you are running. The speed being broadcast owns the display, and every control sits in the half a thumb reaches. • A large speed readout with your current pace beneath it • Plus and minus keys that step in 0.1 increments • Six presets you set to your own paces, one tap each • Incline, sent alongside speed • Metric or imperial, chosen separately for speed and for pace • Keeps broadcasting in the background, so glancing at another app does not drop the connection APPLE WATCH The Apple Watch app estimates your speed and cadence from your wrist and reads your heart rate, then streams them to your iPhone. Your iPhone broadcasts the speed, and your heart rate as a heart-rate sensor that Zwift can pair too. Your run is saved to Health as a workout. IF YOU BOUGHT THE ORIGINAL APP It stays yours. Everything in this version is free for you, for ever — no subscription, nothing to restore. It is recognised automatically from your Apple Account, on any of your devices. FREE TO TRY Every feature is free for a 10-minute run, with an hour between free runs. When a free run ends, the speed sent drops to zero until you unlock. Unlock forever is a one-time purchase with no subscription. Every run is then unlimited, and the unlock is shared with your family through Family Sharing. The price is shown before you buy.
