[SOLVED] - Inaccurately displaying Watts being cycled

All of a sudden the Watt reading I’m getting in the app is much higher than the real figure. My Garmin shows that the the smart trainer is appropriately adjusting to wattage changes in the programs, but the displayed amount is consistently significantly higher. I’m using a Tacx Neo Smart Trainer and the TrainerDay App on my iPhone.

We have a bug that on some trainers it shows power 2 times when you click on the device, this will be fixed asap. But also check settings to make sure
Power doubling is not on.

We checked and this bug does not seem to cause power doubling. So the only thing we can think is your power doubling setting has changed somehow.

Thanks Alex - that was really helpful. I didn’t even know what power doubling was, so I don’t know how it got switched on, but that was indeed the problem. Really appreciate it. Thank you!
