Garmin Connect and missing activities?

When I try to sync over bluetooth from watch to phone app (Garmin Connect)  it only seem to transfer the most recenttly recorded activity.

Today I had two other activitites before lunch but only my evening activity synced over the phone.

When plugging in the USB-cable and syncing through my computer it grabs all three activities, is this a know problem?

I relied on the sync over bluetooth using the phone last month and had a whole week of activites gone missing because I didnt sync before the next activity, is this really per design?

    Try opening the Garmin Connect mobile app > Tap the More tab on the lower right of the home page > Select Garmin Devices > Then tap the circular arrows sync icon next to the Approach S60 showing in the device list to make the arrows spin > Keep the Garmin Golf app either open or running and open in the background on your smartphone in case it is take a little bit longer to transfer the activity files saved locally on the S60. 

    The S60 will sync and transfer data saved periodically throughout the day from the watch to the Garmin Connect App in the background...however, if the Garmin Connect app is closed out on your phone where the app is stopped (if using Android)...or if the app card is minimized and swiped up by force quitting (if using iOS) then the sync between the watch and Garmin Connect mobile will be prevented until the app is opened again preventing background transfer. 

    You may also want to try viewing the Approach S60 Garmin (D:) drive in File Explorer on your computer, opening the GARMIN folder to view the ACTIVITY folder. If there are dozens, or even more .FIT files showing in the ACTIVITY folder...you may want to remove those files after confirming your watch was synced and any pending activities showing transferred over in Connect. This will free up space or any potential file related reasons preventing new activities from transferring via Bluetooth to the Garmin Connect mobile app. 

    *If using Mac, Finder vs File Explorer would be used to view the storage drive on your Approach S60 to access GARMIN > ACTIVITY folders.
