v4.70 App Changes

Can we just go back to the old interface? It wasn’t broken and I feel like it was better streamlined than it is now. Why is there such a larger emphasis on the route map? Why are my my shoe miles broken into a new tab now? This redesign is awful. 

Sincerely, 

a designer

  • 1. Why prioritize elevation over speed in charts?

    2. First screen just adds more area for the eye to scan.

    3. Training effect chart adds unnecessary visual elements to do what the decimal number was enough for, indicating how close, far from next TE you are.

    I also say the previous version had a good and functional layout design.

  • +1 previous design was much clearer and easier to use. In addition the update broke some functionality like saving edited activities

    • Having issues even adding shoes to runs to track mileage, when going to add gear not all gear populates and then if the shoe is listed it does not add to my run?
  • Why on earth would you get rid of the Circles display???  What corp leader decided that was a good idea?  It was an iconic image that said "Garmin" and now it's gone past one day!  Dumb, dumb, dumb - bring it back.  Maybe you can add a display but don't get rid of the circles!

  • Do not like your new format for uploading an activity- like, at a glance to see distance, time, elevation, mph & so on (in the circles) Very disappointing.

  • Thanks! I have an iPhone, I'll check it out. 

  • Thumbsup I'll move it up the chain. I was just really bewildered and annoyed that in my opinion the most important things you want to know about your run are now de-emphasized and each chart is now WAY bigger than I need it to be. Don't they know us runners are a superstitious lot?

    I totally get that not everyone will be happy with a new design as someone that is a designer. This just seems like a change for change's sake to me. 

  • Hello
    Thanks for your time
    Since the last Garmin update, I cannot change/edit the name of the workout once it has been done (not in the configuration/creation of a workout, but once it has been done).

    Thanks

  • I can’t change name on the activities and see it without open the activity. I can’t add my shoes because I can’t see them all or scroll to do so! Chang it back or to this version right!!

  • 1. Add / Remove gear is unusable because the screen cannot be scrolled.
    I have far more that 20 pairs of shoes and all my bikes are coming after them.

    2. Speed or pace is showing in two rows. This is just very bad design.
    For example bike speed is showing like this:
    19,
    2    km/h

    Walking pace is showing like this:
    15:1
    3     /km

    3. On the Laps screen, "Distance" is showing in two rows like this:
    Distanc
