5.10 update ok, but no fix for watch alarm vanishing issue?

I wonder, is this Watch Alarm issue that hard to fix? How shameful must be to be named GARMIN, sell a premium watch with 600$ which is unable to set an alarm on the watch that syncs with the cloud service!?!

You've been tinkering with these betas for so long and for what?... to give us flashlight?

Pfff....
  • I had one time that all alarms was deleted in my watch because I found the option to change or enable it in my phone.
    Since I only use the watch to create/edit/delete alarms and no more problems... If you don't care to much about the alarm's name I found that even quicker and practical than doing it in the phone.

    this issue only appears if you enter in the Garmin Connect settings parameters of your watch. The next sync will overlap your alarms without any notification. Next day you will not funny with this for sure.



    Thank you for clarifying this. Thankfully there is a rather simple workaround being set it on the watch. Let's hope they work out the kinks soon.

    Since a few days ago my alarms have not been overwritten by GC, neither web or mobile where there are NO alarms set.

    In the F5 I have 2 recurring alarms ON and 1 non-recurring ON and one non-recurring OFF and they have not been altered in the last syncs

    The last time I had my alarms overwritten I deleted everything in GC and in the F5, then I set the alarms mentioned above in the F5 but WITHOUT SETTING LABELS.

    Since then about a week ago no more problems of overwriting

  • Just tested, and gc still overwrites on my watch.

    Did you deleted everything in the web, mobile and the F5 and started new only in the F5?

    That's what I did and have not had overwritings again. In the android mobile I deleted all the data of the app, uninstalled and installed.

    Now in the web and in the app I do not have any alarm even though I have them in the F5
  • Update 6.0 and the problem still persists. This is inadmissible on a watch at 700 ? (827 $) !!!
