The wave count property was never editable in the mobile app but earlier this year they made it un-editable in the web app as well. This really sucks because their surfing activity on the watch is terrible at detecting wave rides. So I created my own surfing activity type and manually record my waves as laps then change the activity type on my phone once the activity was sync’ed and update the wave count manually on the web. That was painful enough but now I can’t even do that anymore. What adds to the frustration is that the app recognizes my wave counts “laps” on the wave screen but does not use that for the total wave count. So the summary in the mobile app now always says 0 waves. They really need to fix that properly.
I could not find an email address to send this feedback to Garmin which is why I am posting here.
