Request to Hide Distance Metric in Indoor Activities (Badminton) on Garmin Connect

ookkii

I am a Garmin Epix Gen 2 user. I would like to request a small but meaningful improvement to Garmin Connect.

When recording indoor activities such as Badminton with GPS turned off, Garmin Connect still displays a Distance value derived from the wrist accelerometer. This metric is inaccurate and irrelevant for racket sports — yet there is currently no option to hide or remove it from the activity summary.

I kindly request:

  1. Allow users to hide Distance from the activity summary for specific indoor activity types in Garmin Connect.
  2. Or automatically suppress irrelevant metrics when GPS is disabled for non-distance-based sports.

This would greatly improve data clarity for users who track a wide range of activities. Thank you for considering this feedback.
