Entering weight i modern look

Hi!

It’s impossible to enter weight (kilograms) with decimals (77.6 or 77,6) in the new Garmin Connect.

    Round it to the nearest kg.

    Your weight may vary by far more than 0.5 kg throughout the day anyway depending on what you eat and what time you weigh yourself.
    (It can vary by as much as 2kg)

    There's no point fretting about your device saying 78kg when you think you're only 77.6kg.
    Drink a glass of water and it'll go up.

    Ahhhh that's it! I was trying to enter anything and always use decimals and kg. Just tried without decimals and it works.
    However GARMIN, this is another step backwards for the 'modern' design.
    Please have it fixed (as well as the limitation to only show last 12 month weight data).

    I agree. Forcing full kg (2.2 lbs) entering is a bit too inaccurate, and should be a very easy fix, especially when it's already available on the full website. I'm very happy that it has now been included.

    This is interesting, but a step in the right direction:
    Now it does work on the modern design to enter digits when entering in kg. GREAT!
    Funny is that it does not work on the older design any longer. Guess this is supposed to motivate us to move to the modern design.
    Works for me as soon as the weight history can be displayed more than 12 month back.

    I fully agree. It does not make any sense to limit the capabilities in the modern design. All history weight data should be available otherwise there is no point in keeping a record there!! Also, rounding our weight in the nearest integer is completely stupid, we are supposed to be runners not sumo wrestlers :)

    It is still not working for me. Swithed to modern 2 days ago. Thought the problem was solved?
  • it now works (been able to enter wieght in kg with decimal comma for the past few days)
