On-device setting accept at most 31 characters

I'm developing on-device setting. Now I use on-device setting to input the weather key which is 32-bit string. When I input it and can only input 31 bits. The 32th bit is trimmed.

When I input the characters on watch, it popup a input dialog box on the "GARMIN CONNECT" app on my phone, and I can input at most 32-bit string. But after save, the last one is trimmbed.

So I can only input at most 31-bit string on on-device setting. I thinks it's a bug. Almost weather key is 32-bit string after all.

  • Please post code snippets from your app that demonstrate how this is implemented. I'm not aware of any issues similar to this, and I know there are other apps that provide weather through third-party APIs that use similar keys. I also suspect this is a bug in the app.

  • Sounds like a bug in your code. I would 1st change the code to allow 33 (I'm pretty sure you also confuse bits with bytes) 

    Posting your relevant code might help too
