The new Modern set-up is horrible! Perhaps I am not navigating it correctly, but I cannot get the "dashboard" to show recent runs, splits for the current run, or personal records. I do not want to lose the old version; is there any way Garmin will allow people to keep the old page indefinitely? Or, does someone know how to get the above things to show when you open the new "dashboard"? (which also is very difficult to get to open)
I think you can find some of that information if you click on the word 'Activities' on the Activities 'card' you will see that dashboard. Also, you can click on the three lines near the upper right side of the screen and select 'Activities'. But I think some information is missing, like how to upload manual activities.
The three horizontal line icon is on the left edge of the screen near the top. Once you click the word Activities in the slide-out, you will be taken to a page that is almost exactly the same as the classic activities page. Same for Personal Records.
You can manually upload activities in the modern Garmin Connect as well. If you go to the activities page as described above, there is an Import link near the top right corner of the page. Click this. You will be prompted for the file that you want to manually upload. If you want to enter activity data manually, you can do this by going to the calendar page and clicking on the day that the activity took place. Then pick Manual Activity from the dropdown. You can also click the + symbol in the activities widget.
