Garmin coach

I'd appreciate Garmin, the world leader brand on gps sport watches, to invest a few bucks on behalf of its zillion customers. 

Garmin coach is ok for it is free. A great help for those looking for a guidance. But some frequent situations makes garmin coach unlikely to be used untill the end of the training program:

A) I have a VA3 and the screen goes crazy when unlocked even under a light rain or any water spilled over it. When you add the fact that your fingers are wet too, its easy to mess up with the commands and in spite of saving the activity, it ends up deleting it. The fact is that the water hitting the screen activates itself the commands. Garmin coach is not able to be edited so I can add manually the deleted session.

B) during the training weeks, one might want to join a race or a different type of running (trail, for ex), and there is simply no way to garmin coach "read substitute and incorporate" this different training session to the Coach schedule. A little investment licensing a pre- existent AI code add a bit of flexibility and intelligence to the coaching programs.

C) FOR SOME REASON, even when starting and finishing a run in a loop, it always show more descend than ascend, when its obvious that in a close circuit,  both should be equal.

I can’t get coach to capture my run data. Frustration mounting. Anyone find a good training app I should try? 

Do you start your coach workout from the workout or coach widget?

The workout.  Did I miss something?  Oh geez.  I thought the coach picked it up from the workout.  

I believe you should either start it from the coach widget or from the training calendar in the activity profile.
