Add Activity type: Squash

Hello,

I have been using a Garmin FR405 for a long time for my trainings, and now I am using the VivoFit 2 for everyday use, and it would be useful to be able to select, in the activity types, "squash", and have a calory calculation according to that type of sport. I have used other activity tracker platforms, and squash is included in many of them.

Thank you.

    I can't see squash (or tennis or badminton) as an activity in the activity list - any reason for this? Angus

    And also update calories count: it's not possible that I am wasting only 280 cal after playing 1:20h squash, at 160bpm medium heart rate...

    Yes: +1
    I´m nearly ready with my Squash App for a Vivoactive. I´m counting the steps, heartrate and the time. Currently I upload it named as "Squash" and type of Tennis. Its recorgnised in Connect as "unknown" in every single property.
    It would also be great to additionaly add matches, sets and scores. This would be a feature, all custom Apps would need. Tennis, Badminton, Soccer, and so on.

    Hello Riebmann,

    this app is independent from Garmin Connect? how does it work? And also works for vivofit? Tell us when it's don, and I'll take a look if you want.

    Right now it seems that the calorie count of my squash activites has improved. Yesterday I played one hour and it shows 950 calories, instead of the 280 of the previous week (1 hour and 20 minutes!).

    Hi Alex,
    I created a combination of a score counter and a activity-Tracker. You can activate the recording, but you don´t have to!
    Currently I´m on the finishline. It sometimes stores the Recording not properly :( But only on Vivoactive, the Simulator works as designed...





    I hope to release it during the next week. Testing takes a lot of time on the device.

    Come on, Garmin! I don't think it's so difficult to add this. Other sports apps have had this for years (endomondo...)
