Multiple devices on one account - Correct workflow

Former Member

Hi,

sorry to re-bump an old topic but I am receiving contradictory information on this issue, I hope someone can help me to clarify.

I'm the owner of a Vivosport that will remain the preferred and more used device, and I want to buy a Forerunner 245 for runs and eventually weekends.

Question: how to properly handle two devices.

Version 1 (the "so easy" one): choose a preferred device in Connect but then switch from one device to another and they will seamlessly send the proper data to Connect

Version 2 (the "mind the step" one): choose a preferred device but then (a) switch off if you can the device you are not using or (b) actually mark as preferred device the one that you are using every time you are using it

Version 3 (the "forget it" one): sync the two devices to two different accounts, otherwise it's a mess

I've seen all these three versions around in different pages or forums during the past three years, so that's why I'm asking again.

Any good or stable experiences with two devices?

Thanks in advance
