Utterly awful. Used to be clean, on one page and easy to see. Now have to scroll to find things. Poor work Garmin

I agree that it is terrible, I was so at home with the previous format and now am all at sea. Please can it be changed or give users the option to revert back?

Coros makes a great watch, better battery life than Garmin. Their app is far better than this new, unusable version of Connect.

Check em out

After some time Garmin finally brought back the circles in the form of a Share template named "Classic". Can something similar be done with the home screen?

God I hate it. It used to be so intuitive and easy to just see and use the capabilities I needed. Now it's a mess, I can't find anything, have to look all over to see stuff that used to be right in front of me.

It’s AWFUL. Besides being user unfriendly it is a disaster appearance-wise. You don’t see any of the relative info you want, there is no way for the user to set parameters and data on the page as they want. If Garmin wants to waste dollars on an IT person to screw with something that was working fine. I’m going elsewhere. We have spoken out, been explicit in voicing our dislike, given our opinions and suggestions and not a peep from Garmin. Bad sign.

I am currently looking at coros. I just hate spending the money when my garmin still works. It’s the APP that sucks.

I've abandoned my Garmin and gone back to my 10 year old Ripcurl watch. The Garmin is fine, but I cannot use the app and Garmin have plenty of opportunity to respond to the deluge of criticism since the 'upgrade' in April.

I'm in complete agreement with OP and the lack of Garmin staff even replying or acknowledging the above it very telling. This new design breaks all rules of GUI Design 101. More clicks/scrolls and more empty screen space to name a few of the most obvious... I will most likely be migrating to Gadgetbridge/Strava/Goldencheatah for my fitness/health data needs. I have been patient for several months, hoping they would finally listen to their most loyal users, but my patience has nearly run out. If Garmin doesn't value our opinion, then I will withhold my $$, health data, and attention (eyeballs) from them.

The crappy Garmin Connect home page and the stubbornnes of Garmin not to listen to their customers, made me finally, after many years of Garmin Connect and a Garmin watch, to switch to another brand.

Well done Garmin and bye bye !.
