You may be wondering what FitCast battery saver mode is, why it is needed and how it works.
Using customer feedback, we added this feature to make using FitCast a lot easier, efficient and effective.
Simply, Battery saver “off” means that FitCast will keep broadcasting and other apps will not be disconnected at the end of a Workout. This allows you to run another Workout or continue your run without needing to reconnect other apps (e.g. Zwift, Kinomap, Rouvy).
Please note: FitCast itself is only turned on when you enter the run screen.
