Ive taken delivery of my new trainer so have a few choices to make in terms of software
I have a macbook pro and iPad and an iPhone so all 3 are able to run the software however the iPad & phone appear to pick up 2 different Tax apps and Im trying to work out which is better for use or of i should stick with the MacBook.
IOS devices show Tacx Training & Tacx Cycling

Also when using the MacBook all training devices appear to get picked up, but with the mobile apps Im not sure if I should be connecting the trainer to bluetooth or letting the app find it. I tried yesterday and connected the trainer which worked but it didn't pick up HRM.

Is there any better documentation, video or reference material.

As its a while since Ive done any training the plan was to do an FTP test to establish a base. I can see something in the IOS (iPhone app) app under training room but it looks like Id have to take out a subscription to do the same test via the software on the MacBook. Is this right?

Currently no way to connect to large monitor but that will happen in due course so open to ideas about how to connect.
