Im using the swim 2 and it would be nice if i could change the distance of each interval because sometimes the watch can't recognize every lane for example if i train kicks. And if i could change each interval i could see the wright pace for every interval

Do you know that you can create courses with OSM (OpenStreetMap), with Google Maps, and with HERE maps, on Garmin Connect Web? BTW, what's wrong with Google Maps for creating courses on the app?

Sometimes when i ride on bike i would like to create course. Google Maps dont have road and paths in forrest and etc.

OK, I see. In that case you can use the GC Web. It does have the options for OSM, HERE, and for Google maps.

I forgot one:

The ability to configure, back-up, and restore data-fields using Connect Mobile.

A device reset now involves the laborious task of reconfiguring the entire watch from scratch. Screenshots help but it shouldn't be this hard. Other manufacturers offer this.

I did not test it, but I believe you could simply download the file \\GARMIN\Settings\Settings.fit before you reset the watch, and then upload it back, after the reset. You may need to reboot the watch after the operation, but since I did not test it, it is just a guess.

Along the same lines, even in the US, races are run in kilometers. Would be nice to get lap info at each k sometimes even tho settings are Imperial

There is a really annoying issue with the GUI on the Android app when creating a new workout:

Instead of forcing me to scroll to set a run distance when making a new workout, allow me to type in the distance.

Having to *scroll* to 400 or 1600 meters is ridiculous (trying to make an interval workout).

That the scroll goes up to 99999 should be enough to tell you there's a user interface problem.

Thanks.

This is more of an overall Connect request, but could you please add Obstacle Course Racing to the "What I Do" list? "Other" doesn't really cut it.

Thanks.
