Feature request: customizable activity categories

Feature request

Please allow users to customize the activity categories in Garmin Connect. Some examples of possible changes that some users might want to do:

  • Separate two different activities that currently are in the same category into different categories (to track totals in a different way)
  • Add a new custom activity into a specific category (rather than it going into "other")
  • Create new categories altogether. For example, I like to track my stretching workouts but they should NOT be in the same category as "auto racing" or "boating". Instead, I would like to create a category called "recovery" where I include not only stretching but also, for example, yoga.

Thank you.

Edit: This is especially needed for "all activities" reports where the categories are represented by different colors.

  • Yes, please.  I have the same suggestion, please implement this!

    For example, although there's a Martial Arts widget on the watch itself when I look at my activities on the app/desktop the dropdown doesn't have Martial Arts, or dance, and I'm sure many others.  There are also customizable widgets so I don't see why there aren't customizable categories...

  • why this is not implemented yet?
