Intensity Minutes all over the place since v3.8

Upon updating to v3.8, my intensity minutes for that week doubled over night.

Since yesterday (my nominal start to the week, using v3.8.1), I've logged 51 mins, dispite doing nothing (except going to work).

This is using my F3HR to gather data. HR levels are normal for the last two days, so it's not physiological.

Is anyone else seen this?

Did Garmin change the way it works and not tell us?? Or is it a bug??
  • I am not experiencing this. Intensity minutes are being recorded as expected for me.

    What device are you using to record IMs?

    Mine recorded another 20min since the first post!! The irony is that before the update my F3HR struggled to record more than 30mins of IM even after an hour long, flat-out bike ride.

    Theses metrics are BS in my opinion and cannot be trusted.

    Intensity minutes

    My intensity minutes are not correct with since update. Prior to update I had 128 minutes recorded. After update I now have only 12 minutes. The app still shows correct number.

    Can someone official please comment on this please?

    It is still porked in 3.8.2. Today all I did was mow the lawn and it recorded about 150mins. Rediculous.

    Not had any intensity minutes show at all in 3.8.2.0 since the week of July 11th. Could that be because I am running beta iOS 10?
  • Got about 130000 yesterday... That screws up my average 😁

    Mine is still doing this! Intensity minutes seem to be logged for activities other than workouts. Maybe steps are being counted as intensity minutes?! I dunno.

    when I use Fenix3HR as my primary workout recording device and have it set as The Activity Tracker in GC I do not get any intensity minutes recorded..... yet the previous 10 days using 735XT I have what look like genuine stats..... I don't think being on the iOS 10 beta had an impact (see earlier note) as IM's did return a couple of days later
  • Intensity minutes goals not in sync

    I've noticed that the weekly intensity minutes goal on my Vivosmart HR and the Garmin Connect app don't match. The Vivosmart HR shows a goal that is 2.5x higher than the Connect goal...
