Where did my steps challenge go?

dilbert04 over 1 year ago

Like almost everyone that has posted on the new dashboard, I dislike it.

I love viewing my weekly steps challenge to see how I'm doing.

This is what I see now on the dashboard:

Then I click Find a Challenge and see this (yes, I was in a challenge, the home screen is useless):

Then I need to click once again to see where I am.

What programmer thinks this is better than what we had?

Just because you can (program), doesn't mean you should.

I wish we had the option to go back.

Mine is the same

Thank you for your reply.

Here are my settings.

Here's my home screen:

The current challenge does not show.

Thanks again, I tried that prior to my original post.

Here's a video of what I tried.

Thanks for the video capture. I could not duplicate the issue, at least from my end. I even reset my home page using all 3 options. I'm wondering if you need to add more challenges. Maybe the page won't show any if you don't have at least 3? Worth a try anyway.

No, it does not have to add more challenges, the new Garmin interface displays only three challenges, sorting them in a way known only to itself, so that, for example, on my 32-inch screen I have plenty of free space around the new version of widgets. This is crap and not an improvement in functionality.

Understood. But dilbert04 is not seeing any challenges and is enrolled in just 1. So my thought is to add more challenges to see what happens. I am currently enrolled in 8 challenges. I'm seeing 3 on the home page and clicking "See All" shows all of them.

Ugh, it's actually worse. I added two more and they both show. The steps challenge still does not.

Thanks for the help, but at this point I will just accept that Garmin messed up a good thing and provided us a worse product. It seems I cannot get back the info I had.

@sellogramp thanks for trying.

I agree, I can get to it, but it was much simpler before.
