Connect App Beta

Former Member over 7 years ago

Hi Eveyone,
I have the connect app on my iPhone 7 and iPad, with my fenix5s syncing to my Iphone & home wifi.
Yesterday while using the app on my iPad I had a pop up asking if I wanted to use the beta app my day, it looks nice.

Im wanting to use the my day beta app on my iPhone as well.
Would anyone know how I get the beta app also on my phone?

Cheers.

There is a tool for seeing how long a regular review might take Average App Store Review Times which is based on voluntarily submitted review time data. Haven't ever seen it take longer than that though.

The thing I'm not understanding, I was asked if I wanted to use the Beta App on my Ipad however its not linked to my account so I'm stuck using the old App on my phone that my watch syncs with.

I deleted the Connect app off my iPhone then immediately reinstalled and beta access showed up.

I also tried deleting and re-installing the iPhone app... still no beta access. Guess I'll just have to be patient.

Hi all,
I got my Garmin Fenix 3 today. When I first installed the app on my Android 6 device, it asked me if I want to turn on the beta which I didn't.
I tested the regular app then I turned on the beta. The home screen is way better.
After a while I had bluetooth problems, my Fenix was simply not connecting to my phone and not syncing.
I do not know if this is related to the beta. Anyway, I had to follow a Garmin moderator instructions and I cleared the Garmin app cache.
Now I have no access to the beta and I can't even chose what data to share with Garmin.
I think the beta access is a one time offer, at least it seems to be that way.

If you go to the settings menu there should be a selection for the beta. If you tap that it will go to a screen with a slider that allows you to turn the beta back on.

I see that you're on Android so it might be a little different but should still be similar.

Hi
I notice not that weights (from index scale) are being assigned to the correct day for my time zone (per previous post above fix was on the way)
With the Beta App i have noticed that the weight 'widget' delta field is displaying 0. I figure this is because it is potentially looking for a whole number where as with daily (or near daily) weigh ins i do not see fluctuations perhaps large enough?
I assume the delta is designed to show the + or - based on previous weight.
Has anyone else seen a number in delta to confirm of disprove my theory above on whole number?

I was on beta for a few days like three days and then I got a notification "thank you for trying out the beta software" and now it's gone.... I agree with you guys that the "home page" was a great improvement. I liked the instant HR reading

Darre80 i get the same message every so often and just go back in and re enable it. It then starts back up
