Does it work?
Yes
Through BikeControl, with the inputs Zwift already accepts
Zwift is not a BikeControl partner: BikeControl sends the inputs it already accepts, the way a keyboard or a Bluetooth controller does.
BikeControl maps the Elite Square Smart Frame's buttons to Zwift actions such as shift up and down and steer left and right, over Network, Bluetooth, or Local.
Try it for 5 days (7 on Windows) to check it works with your setup. Then Base, a one-time purchase per platform, or Pro.
