Venu 2s sleep data missing if you start an activity at night

The past two nights I left the 'indoor walking' activity going all night on the Venu 2s. The result is that no sleep data is being show in Garmin Connect for those two nights. I did the same all last week with the Venu SQ (also running indoor walking all night), and didn't have it interfere with the sleep data.

I'm working on  a sleep related app, and have been using some datafields for testing. I haven't yet checked whether running any app is impacted, or just activities.

  • Sleep tracking is different between the venu sq and venu2.  On the venu sq, data is sent to garmin and the analysis is done on the garmin servers.  On the venu 2, the analysis runs on the watch.  That's why you see the difference.

    As I expand the test I will see how significant this impact is. If it only is impacted by Activities, that's probably fine. If any running app impacts it, that's more of a pain. And if background events block the built in analysis, that will seem pretty bad. (Not saying they do, I haven't tested that yet).
