Want to give feedback on beta testing don't see that. Also not a fan of beta test format.

Neta feedback

Why doesn't an activity automatically say fitness why do I have to go in each time and change it from uncategorized to fitness? AND with this Beta program it doesn't stay once I change it. Why?

I always have to fix activities in the app after a workout You don't have Barre You don't have bootcamp class

For yoga, why is that so hard to record? Why should I have to enter every single pose with other data? It isn't easy takes WAY TOO MUCH TIME. That should be an option.

Activities should have dates with them on top not just 2d or 3d. 

  • None of this is due to the beta. It is all the same in the old version.

    Why doesn't an activity automatically say fitness why do I have to go in each time and change it from uncategorized to fitness?

    Because that is the default value. Send a request to Garmin to set a default value: https://www.garmin.com/ideas/

    with this Beta program it doesn't stay once I change it. Why?

    It is a known bug. It will work if you change it on the web.

    You don't have Barre You don't have bootcamp class

    Garmin tries to add activity types that are the base type of the training and not all special classes that constantly pops up. New types are added when an activity got some charateristics that needs to be logged. For example Jump Rope is now being added to the latest models since the number of skips needs to be logged.

    Most indoor training falls under Strength, Cardio or HIIT. Bootcamp is probably HIIT. Barre could also be HIIT.

    For yoga, why is that so hard to record?

    You don't have to log each pose. Just ignore the poses. The watch will automatically create one pose which I always delete afterwards. It is the same with strength. I also delete that one exercise.

    Activities should have dates with them on top not just 2d or 3d.

    Where do you see this? Post a screenshot. I found one place and that is in the news feed. After 7 days you will get the dates. I guess Garmin thought it would be easy enough to know the dates up to one week back. Send your request to Garmin: https://www.garmin.com/ideas/
