Walking activity is missing in connect

Former Member
Former Member

I have my watch since one week now, and I find it really amazing. 

Only the connect app is not easy to work with.

My most important activity is walking, but I don't find where I can add this activity under the activities in the main menu. So  I can't see  my historical data of all my walks at this time.

Can anyone tell me how I  can delete the useless pre-programmed activities and replace them with activities I want to use?  

Thanks

  • Only the connect app is not easy to work with.

    Connect app on android, iOS, or Garmin Connect Web? You can edit the activity to change the activity type to walking.

    Garmin Connect Web...

    Garmin Connect Mobile...

    If you're referring to the watch itself, then you can add a custom activity and call it walking - Adding a Custom Activity 

    You can also add or remove a favorite activity, thereby placing walking at the top of the list - vívoactive 3 - Adding or Removing a Favorite Activity

    This is interesting - the list of activities is different in my case:

    ... and I wonder what the key for the lineup of the selected activities is. It does not seem to be device-related - since for example my Instinct does not support Multisport, though it is listed there. It is also not lined up by the frequency of use, or by the distance/time/calories, or by the last use of given type, or by any other criteria I tried to match. 

    I guess the user from the opening post does not see Walk in that list at all, despite we both have it there - you on the 6th rank, me on the 4th rank.

    Personally, I'd suggest recording a few Walk activities, and hopefully the Walk will then eventually appear on the list. In the meantime, to access any activity of types not shown on the list, just use the option All Activities (or Garmin Connect Web as suggested by )

    OK, I see. If I understood well, I believe the OP user is trying to add the Walk activity to the list on the main Activity screen - that's the one I posted. Could you post the screenshot of yours too? Or is it identical to mine?

    Identical on android and iOS

    OK, so in tha case, I guess the answer for Former Member is, that the Walk activity is not missing in the Garmin Connect app - it is on the 4th rank of the main Activity screen. If it is not the case, then a screenshot of that screen could perhaps help understanding the issue better.
