No longer able to edit sleep times

Since the last update I can no longer edit my fall asleep and wake up times for tracked sleep via my Garmin Venu. Have they removed this feature or is it just a bug in my app?

  • Yes would be interesting to know their reason for removing it, Dalton didn’t seem to want to elaborate!

  • Is the missing recalculation of the stress level during sleep when changing the sleep times also a feature? For me its a bug and makes the sleepscore useless.

  • Thanks for raising this issue. I'm also frustrated that they removed this feature as I need it about once a week when my correct sleeping times are botched during the day. I have put in a request to bring back this feature, as suggested in this thread. Hope they will bring back the feature soon. I can't be hard, as you can still fix the sleep times for the current day.

  • Actually, removing this feature has introduced a bug.

    Use case: I wish to update my sleep time for yesterday and make changes. I wish to refine the changes, but get distracted. By the time I get to it the day is past, then I am left with incorrect data and unable to correct it.

    Required solution: Allow the sleep time edit to be in draft mode, so that even if 24 hours are past one can finish the editing one has started.

    Practical solution: Above requires a some new code to be written and tested. If they enable the old feature the above is no longer required.

    This actually happened to me, I did not take screen shots, but here it is in brief.

    My sleep time was showing from about 12:30 am to 6:15 am. I had slept off around 10:30 pm or so as I remember and woken up in between to catch-up with some work. This may not be healthy but my pattern.

    I opted tp edit and entered the Sleep time as 10:00 pm, so that I can adjust to near 10:30 based on sleep info it showed.

    I noticed that I slept at around 10:25 pm, and started to update...

    I got an office call and was busy the rest of the day, when I remembered this and went to it, I had no choice to correct it.

    My sleep time showed 10:00 pm to 6:15 am. I should have had the option of putting this edit in draft mode!

    OR in the feature was not disabled, I would have happily edited it right.

    Thanks, Vasu

  • User error is not a bug 

  • Why is it an user error?

    If one starts editing Sleep time at 11:55 pm or later, one may take around 5 min to finish editing and may be left with incorrect data. 

  • Arbitrary feature removal to 24 hour edit is terrible customer service. The more reasonable choice would be up to a week of editable sleep start and end times. This change was made with no announcement or input by actual users. Feels more like a move to cut costs, IE reduce the number of calls to the database hosted in a cloud environment. 

    Please restore this feature. 

  • Yup, I despise this change. Now, Garmin Connect users can only edit sleep time data for the current/previous night, not for days prior. Unnecessary and unwanted change to a crucial feature -- why are the developers breaking things that are not broken?
