Feature Request: More than 2 Connect IQ Data Fields on F5 series

Former Member over 8 years ago

Is there a way to provide feedback directly to Garmin for future software updates?

I use quite a few of the 3rd party Connect IQ data fields and would like to add more than 2 to an activity. I don't see how this is a hardware limitation as the Epix can run 3 Connect IQ data fields, and some Edge devices allow 4. I would be happy with 4.

This is the place:

...though you will/may/probably just get an automated response saying "As happy as we are to hear from you, it's unlikely that you will hear back from us". At least I did.

I totally agree with the suggestion, 2 is very limiting. In case you didn't see it there is also this thread:

The problem would be solved if Garmin would allow native running power. Now Stryd uses all my fields since I can only fit 4 fields per page and use power as primary metric.

I'm thinking also about adding an oxygen sensor at some point, so then I'm facing another trade off.

And why only 4 fields per screen? Even Suunto allow up to 7 these days.

I can do with current limitations but I think they should wake up and improve at least some of it, this is a modern top of the line device after all.

They're probably working on it for the fenix 6 already.
