Android Split screen stopped working

asteele4 — Thu, 04 Jun 2026 01:29:53 GMT

Hi,

I have a Samsung Fold 7 and regularly use the split screen function. In particular, at my gym we use Truecoach for my program but I record my session on my Epix watch. At the end of the workout, I bring both apps up dude by side to ensure they both have the same recording my session. I was able to do this two days ago. Now I get a message saying Connect can't do split screen.

I've found the solution!

Go into Settings -> Advanced Features -> Labs.

There is a switch "Multi-windows for all apps". Turn it on.

Don't know how it got turned off or what happened to cause this problem.

Glad it's not just me. Thanks, I forgot to mention the big about pop-up view has also gone.

On the Samsung you can save a split screen layout as an icon on your home screen. I had one that showed truecoach on one side and connect on the other. Press the icon, and both apps open.

This whole issue first came to my attention when I pressed that icon, that I had setup months ago, and was presented with a message saying Connect wansn't capable of split screen so the icon will be deleted! No "would you like to delete the icon?"

Both "Open in split screen view" and "Open in popup view" options are missing.

Garmin Connect doesn't show Intensity Minnutes

1955124 — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 20:14:28 GMT

Got a Vivosmart 4 and the Connect app. Two days ago the Intensity Minutes stopped showing up. The app is on a Galaxy S21 Ultra. Phone and app are up-to-date. Any fixes?

Cheers.

RE: Garmin Connect doesn't show Intensity Minnutes

Garmin - LF — Wed, 03 Jun 2026 19:57:19 GMT

Hello 1955124 For intensity minutes you do need to have an elevated HR. The vivosmart 4 requires you to maintain a minimum 10 minutes of your HR being elevated, before the intensity minutes will count. Here are some additional details: https://support.garmin.com/en-US/?faq=pNU9nnDzzGAHmEavp9rpY8&productID=605739&searchQuery=intensity%20minutes&tab=topics

If these are still not counting, please post here again.

I'm seeing the same issue reported by multiple developers. The Garmin Connect Developer Program application page has been showing an "Under Construction" message, and Garmin staff confirmed that their team is working on the website. They recommended contacting the developer team through the developer contact form while the application system is being updated.

Did you have any IM this week? Does the watch show them? Does the syncing work?

RE: Sync Garmin App / Forerunner 970

Garmin - KS — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 22:00:57 GMT

Since the activity is appearing in Garmin Connect and has also synced to Strava, the upload from your Edge 1050 appears to be working correctly.

If you haven't already, please make sure Physio TrueUp is enabled for both your Forerunner 970 and Edge 1050. Physio TrueUp is what allows compatible Garmin devices on the same account to share training and activity data. Instructions to enable TrueUp can be found here: What is Physio TrueUp?

If Physio TrueUp is enabled, can you let us know where on the Forerunner 970 you're expecting to see the cycling distance? For example, are you viewing the weekly totals by following the steps shown here: Viewing Data Totals

A photo of the screen you're referring to would also be helpful.

Sync Garmin App / Forerunner 970

LAEUFERGOTT — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 09:14:21 GMT

Hi,

I am a proud owner of the Forerunner 970 for few days now (got the 945 before). I usually ride with my bike with the Edge 1050. My question: after the initial global sync I could see all my activities, but I can't the latest I did with the 1050. The activity is shown in garmin connect and also uploaded to Strava. The KI sayed that this behavior is normal, but it shouldn't and was not normal for my 945. I want to see my total bike km for the week on my watch.
Did I miss something. Please let me me know if there is a solution for this.

thanks and regards,
Stefan.

Option to disable lifestyle logging

3225139 — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:10:18 GMT

When will they make it so people can disable lifestyle logging? I opened it by mistake and now I cannot remove it because "one behavior has to be enabled"

RE: Option to disable lifestyle logging

3225139 — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:42:33 GMT

Yeah, after a while ChatGPT managed to help me through it because apparently its only on the app and not the web.

In my opinion I should not have to have a "lifestyle behavior" at all and it should be possible to disable that part altogether. Especially when I by mistake clicked on it in the first place. Not just "disable the reminders" which, is not in the app but on the watch in the evening report *sigh*

This is what ChatGPT had to say about that:

Honestly, you’ve now experienced the full authentic Garmin onboarding ritual:

hidden settings
duplicate settings
app-only settings
web-only settings
settings that pretend to be removable but aren’t
features that require archaeological excavation to disable

So, for anyone else having issue with this:

Diable reminders in the app where you found this ***

You can remove it from your evening report on your watch, and honestly ask ChatGPT how you do it because I am very sure it depens on which watch you use.

RE: Option to disable lifestyle logging

trux — Tue, 02 Jun 2026 18:33:26 GMT

What exactly do you want to disable? The logging self is not mandatory, so if you do not want to use any, simply do not open that page. And if you mean the reminders, then you can disable them.

Thanks for the post rascal6000 . Please see the following Support Center article which should help: Garmin Connect App Bluetooth Troubleshooting

If that doesn't take care of it, please post a screenshot or video of what is happening so we can better understand and troubleshoot accordingly.

A few days ago the Bluetooth connection between my phone and watch became unstable, now it won't connect at all. I've worked through the problem with Google who have now asked me to contact you

Same issue here.

Upcoming calendar event missing

pk84 — Sun, 24 May 2026 18:12:19 GMT

I have Fénix 7 Pro Sapphire Solar, I use Google Calendar on my phone to manage Events, plus Garmin Connect for sync as usual.

A few days ago I noticed upcoming calendar event going missing on my Fénix calendar widget, only 2nd and following events are visible.

I create event in Google Calendar, it syncs to watch and after some time it disappears. Always the first one. I cannot replicate exact conditions, but it is usually gone the next day. Google Calendar shows all ok.

It worked fine after the recent firmware update, so I suspect it's app or sync related.

RE: Upcoming calendar event missing

Mountainz — Sun, 31 May 2026 11:23:53 GMT

With UTC+1 then the activity might disappear at the same time it starts? It should be visible until 1 hour after start.

The bug seems to be connected to timecode, Garmin Connect just assumes all is UTC time.

RE: Upcoming calendar event missing

druidh — Sun, 31 May 2026 11:20:14 GMT

I'm UTC +1 (UK) and calendar widget seems to be behaving (Pixel 8 /Fenix 7S Pro). There was some sort of on-the-fly software update to my watch yesterday too. No idea what that was but might be worth looking into?

RE: Upcoming calendar event missing

Mountainz — Sun, 31 May 2026 06:54:31 GMT

Garmin Connect Android app updated may 18th. Since the problem here seem to affect users with different android manufacturers and different watches, the only common thing here is Garmin Connect Android app. Has to be a bug in the version that came out may 18th right?
