What's up with these watch faces?

Does anyone test at Garmin before you release, or are we the buyers the test subjects, at the price we pay I would expect better.

I have the 5x with 4.10 update.

I noticed after charging from express the other day that when I press the up or down key the watch face defaults to the factory version. Then after 3/4 seconds it freezes for a minute then goes back to the installed watchface (which is the non changed setting version of the installed watchface).

Coders should test there code/configuration before sending it out, the quality of this product seems to be going down. At my company that is because we fired our best developers for cheap interns.

As I said in another thread, there have been a number of fixes for CIQ watchfaces on the f5x in the betas since 4.10. I'd update to the 5.09 beta if you are having issues with watchfaces. It's not the WF itself. It's the firmware. If you don't want to use beta FW, check with garmin for their plans for the next production firmware.

I updated to the beta and the issue resulting in watchface stopped/fixed. It will be great to see the fixes get released (non-beta)

I also had issues with my watchface (SC2), was considering to upgrade to beta due to that, because I had enough of setting custom fields every day. In the end I have just synchronized watch with garmin express app on pc and that fixed my issues. Now the watcface is just fine without reset. I am still on 4.10.
