Review summary

Users report Tacx Training for Android offers a realistic road feel and easy setup when it works, but reliability and UX suffer from crashes, data loss, subscription friction, and weak cross-platform integration. Desktop installation issues and regional restrictions add to frustration. Overall, it has potential but needs major stability and feature improvements.
Pros
  • Realistic road feel with varied surfaces (road, cobbles, gravel)
  • Easy to set up and use
  • Positive performance when it works (praises like 'awesome', 'excellent app', 'Brilliant! Fantastic!')
  • Overall positive sentiment in reviews where the app functions
Cons
  • Frequent crashes and stability issues during rides
  • Data not saved after workouts / data loss
  • Onboarding, subscription and pricing friction (upgrading to paid plan, region availability, cancellation risks)
  • Poor cross-platform integration and missing pedal data/group ride features
  • Desktop/installation instability and access problems

the new UI sucks. there is a lot of screen space wasted l, it doesn't display average values, doesn't allow to swap between different visualizzato modes and the readings are too small I need to use my eyeglasses. Please provide a way to choose between the old and the new one out to the previous one

Miserable user interface, and they just made it worse with the latest update. Just as you get used to the bizarre workout screen, they change it to a completely different one. Over and above the annoyance of having to work out where everything is, they have removed things I liked - thanks Garmin I think there must be in ongoing competition between Garmin and Microsoft as to who can most annoy customers by making pointless changes to screen layouts.

The latest update has ruined this once great app. inefficient and unwanted screen data, large blank areas and fields that are too small to read. upside down smile!

Latest update to app changes the screen layout, the previous version filled the display fully with everything visible - now all the data fields are squashed into the corner and you need a magnifying glass to read them. Garmin continue to screw up the Tacx platform.

Connection problems. Takes longer to get it to work than it does to ride. Time to get rid of this junk

every update is worse than the previous. first came the ultra small unreadable activity trackers (with 60% of the screen empty). and now they forgot to include a button for finishing the activity 🤦

What have you done with the Power Training interface? It is now so small and compressed and uses 1/4 of the screen real estate it is difficult to see what is on there. Just make all component fill out the available space.
