What is the best way to track / record Badminton games using my Approach S62?

I play Golf and Badminton and so far it's been very useful for Golf but now I would like to track some basic health metrics from playing Badminton.

What is the best way to enable that so it auto tracks my Badminton sessions, i.e. so I don't have to turn something on each time I play (which I can do using the Fitbit but would prefer to ditch the Fitbit completely).

I'd like to track at least the basic metrics, e.g. heart rate (levels through the session and max for for the session), distance covered, etc. and then see back over time how it has varied.

Thanks in advance.

Hello, I would say the best option for tracking this activity is starting a Cardio activity. This can be added as an activity to track by pressing the top right button > 4 colored dots > swipe up until you see Cardio and select it.

This will move this to the activity screen where you can choose to start a cardio session to track those metrics.

Thanks, I'll give this a try.

I tried this earlier today and Cardio didn't track anything.

Initially it tried to connect to GPS but I was inside so it couldn't find a GPS signal so I turned GPS off in the Cardio app but all it did then was return 'Ready' (with the heart, phone and battery symbol at the top (with the words GPS above that) and then nothing?

I did a bit of reading of the manual and that seems to suggest that the Cardio app can only be used outside, is that correct?

Am I missing a setting here?

Please could you respond to the issue below, where cardio seems to only want to track outdoor activities?

Thanks!
