Tacx Cycling app

Riders who own a Genius, Bushido or Vortex can now train using this free app.

Important notice

With this release of TCA, Tacx will permanently discontinue the maintenance and support of this product. This is why the purchase of new films within TCA is now disabled.

All your previously purchased films, however, will stay available for download and will continue to work.

Please note that the TCA will keep working after January 2020, and will probably keep on doing so for a long time, but Tacx will not develop new features and can no longer guarantee its operation after this date.

The reason why we discontinue the app is that we developed a new and improved alternative: The Tacx Training App (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/tacx-training-app/id892366151). With this app you can enjoy unlimited use of our full film library, GPS- & structured workouts and live opponents.

Train on the Tacx with an Android tablet

The Tacx Cycling app makes it possible to train with a tablet computer. Genius, Bushido and Vortex riders with a tablet can now train using this free app, developed for Android. The Tacx Cycling app contains a simplified version of the Catalyst training software, the Analyser and Real Life Video to play Tacx films.

Catalyst

Professional training programs and fitness tests for a scientific analysis of your training session. Train on heart rate, power output or slope. Follow your development and become a better rider step by step.

Analyser

Analyser presents the recorded training data on the screen of the tablet. Your performance is displayed in a graph.

Tacx films

Cycling in a Tacx film makes a training session more enjoyable and adventurous. The speed of the film is influenced by your cycling pace. If you are cycling up a mountain, the brake of your trainer will generate so much resistance that you can actually sense the percentage of incline. A demo film from the Mont Faron, Toulon in France is included. In the Tacx Cycling app you will find a list of all film titles that have been developed specifically for the app. These have a distance of about 30 km.

Note: The Tacx download films for the Tacx Trainer software and the Tacx films for the Cycling app cannot be combined with each other. The films for the Tacx Trainer software can be ordered via the Tacx Online shop. The films for the Tacx Cycling app can be ordered via the app itself.
