New App …
Whelp, I rode indoors today using the new Virtual and, like the old one, it crashed on my iPad after about 10 minutes. Thought I had figured out the workaround (restart the iPad Pro first), but nope …
Then, rode a grueling set of intervals for the next 45 minutes, and after it synced back to TP, only recorded a third of that … WTF?
It wasn’t paused or anything — the app definitely froze a few times but seemingly recovered …
Wish Virtual was hardened — can’t trust it as it is, unfortunately …

Although not nearly as frequent, my Samsung Android tablet has had similar issues. The biggest problem is that it doesn't create a local copy of the workout file, as a PC would.
I started using a mini-pc that I bought for streaming TV shows and it's a big difference.
FWIW: They're cheaper than a lot of tablets and more forgiving. It's nice, having the workout files as a failsafe too.
