Lap button in Treadmill Run

Former Member over 5 years ago

When I use Treadmill Run and do an Interval Workout with Warm Up.The Lap Button takes me back to Watch Face rather than commencing the Interval Training.

In Outdoor Run, the Lap button commences the interval after the warm up

Does anyone else experience this issue?

You can activate/deactivate the lap button in every activity separately. Just go to the activity settings of the respective activity directly on your watch and set it up as you wish. In the global device settings you can also define a hot key for the lap button as a combination of two keys, so that the original Back button keeps its standard function.

This doesn't appear to be an option on a VA4.

I would be surprised, but everything is possible. However, perhaps you just do not look on the right place. Try the following: select the desired activity (in my case I use the right upper GPS button, then some scrolling through the list of activities and then I press the same button again to confirm the choice) » long-press the Menu button (left middle in my case) » select XXX Settings (XXX is the name of the respective activity) » scroll down, there will be somewhere certainly at least the Auto Lap option, but that's not the one you are lookingg for, scroll further down and almost at the bottom there (hopefully) is the option Lap Key, that you can turn on or off. This is for the default lap key (right bottom in my case).

And if you long-press the Menu button and select the global "Settings" (not activity Setting) » then System » Hot Keys, and there you can select one of the unused combination of keys and assign it the function Lap.
