This is your end to end guide on how to do exactly that. Virtually every trainer app out there today falls into one of these platforms. From there, you need only decide whether you want a wired or wireless solution.

1. When doing the Apple Airplay thing, one should beware that a not-so-good wifi router will drop the wifi connection in the middle of the exercise. Of course that should not interrupt the workout but it will be annoying as hell. To avoid that, search Apple forums for complains about dropped wifi connections during AirPlay and make an idea about how top-of-the-line the wifi equipment should be to avoid having the connection dropped.

When iOS will be upgraded again, one cannot know what would Apple change in AirPlay again. But when they changed iOS from 8 to 9, they did it in such a way that AirPlay-ing to my AppleTV worked perfectly after the upgrade. So the chances are that the same will be on the next major iOS upgrade.

I use both wired and wireless options with my MacBook depending on battery charge. Zwift seems to eat up battery going from 100% to 30-20%. I can easily charge while in use but I dont like having to move my charger back and forth.

Incidentally, lots of Android boxes can do Airplay, including some Zidoo and Droidbox ones. Pretty sure Reflector-2-For-Android works on Amazon fire stick thingies (the fire thingy is mentioned specifically on their website). If you are not going to use the functionality of an Apple TV for anything else you can pick up something smaller and cheaper.

I use AirPlay from my Mac to my Apple TV. They are in separate rooms so to use Zwift (or any other platform) I needed a ANT+ Dongle and a USB extender. This allows the Mac to pick up my power, cadence, heart rate, etc.

While the more common use case may be the devices on the same network, peer-to-peer has its uses, such as in a presentation scenario. The presenter just needs to bring along his own Apple TV and iOS device or Mac. Hook the Apple TV up to an AV system, and good to go without needing to connect to a network.

I personally prefer wired. Reason: (almost or) no lag in the display. I used Chromecast (old dongle) and Microsoft Miracast with my Android device: Chromecast has the poorest performance, Miracast is actually a wireless HDMI connection with some lag; but not that much. What I noticed using the Tacx app: the power consumption from wireless streaming and app: it draws almost all the power and my tablet started to complain about lack of power (fully charged and plugged in!). Asus TF103C transformer and the Ant+ dongle in the keyboard, power in the micro usb slot of the tablet. This will vary per tablet, but be ware that a tablet has to work hard for wireless streaming.

I got tired of moving my computer downstairs to ride Zwift and found that I could project the screen and sound from my PC upstairs to my Roku Streaming Stick+ 3810RW device downstairs. So far it seems to be working perfectly with little lag. I use BLE on my Android phone with the Zwift mobile link app to pick up the sensor data from the Wahoo Kickr Snap. I bought the Roku initially to get an app not supported by my TV yet, and was pleasantly surprised to discover this functionality with Zwift also.

For those of you who have an ios device and a Windows PC or MAC and do not want to spend the money on an Apple TV, Airserver is a great option for mirroring iOS devices to your TV assuming you have the cable to connect your windows PC to your TV.

If anyone knows of a good way to wirelessly transmit Ant+ signals to a PC in another room, I would love to know about it. I would like to give Zwift a go, but my only PC capable of running it is in the office upstairs while my trainer and TV are in the basement.

So I want to use a TV or a monitor for Zwift. I see how to follow things from the blog post, but I am still confused as to issues between a HDTV and a monitor? Either way thinking in the 30 inch range. Other pieces are Mac Book Pro i7 and Nvidia 650 card 16GB mem. Tacx Neo Smart.

Hi Ray,
Ive just installed Zwift on both my iPhone and iPad. When I airplay Zwift from my iPad via the Apple TV to the TV, the TV screen has borders on both sides, rather than filling the screen. Is this because the aspect ratio on an iPad is 4:3 and most widescreen TVs are 16:9? Im wondering if theres a work-around.

Hi DC, I recently upgraded my TV for Zwift and tried connecting Zwift app to smart TV via HDMI. It is visible but is in portrait mode even when showing in landscape mode on app when phone screen is unlocked. Therefore the screen shows the app at 90 degrees to horizontal. Very weird! I have toggled through all screen settings but makes no difference. I have tied same on my iPad and it works perfectly albeit with 3:4 screen width restriction. I am trying to get full screen 16:9 benefits from my iPhone. Any ideas ? Thanks in advance.

As always another great guide from Ray.
A minor point about miracast and android. Although it is supported natively on Android Google in their infinite wisdom seem to have disabled this on Pixel phones.

Today I was searching some blogs on Google related to tech and when I clicked on some website and read their blog, I did not like it and was not very relevant then I came to your site and read your blog, I felt very much. liked it
