Delete this 5.0 app and install .APK file with 4.77 version. And make sure to deactivate automatically updates.

But you need to connect all the watches and bike computers again...

I hate it. I used to have a quick view of everything right there, now its all over the place. I want the old view back.

Can we have the option of the previous version of the home screen. This one is absolutely terrible. Makes me want to just stop wearing it if I can't see anything at a glance or find anything. You did NOT DO GOOD on this update AT ALL

I just updated and it still does not give me the classic. Absolutely terrible.

As described early this evening by CL it is possible to go back to the old version on Android device. I have successfully done this just now on Samsung smartphone - thankyou CL

If each person who successfully goes back to the old version can post this info, it will always be near the new end of the thread, then others will see it

1. Unistall Garmin Connect (you will not lose your data, it is not stored on your device, but on Garmin server)

2. Get old version of app from

www.apkmirror.com/.../

3. Go to my files -> downloads folder or wherever you saved it

4. Run the installer

5. You may need to change a security setting for the browser that you used to go to the installer, in my case Chrome, to enable you to install an app from somewhere other than GooglePlay

6. Once installed, go to GooglePlay, search for and find GarminConnect and go to the 3 dots at the top right of your screen. Untick 'Enable auto-updates'

7. Open GarminConnect app, sign in, enjoy your app once more
