Some behaviours that seems to be bugs

Former Member over 7 years ago

Hi,

Thanks for your energy and this product !

Using the Fenix 5X, v5.30, I noticed those behaviors :
- Langage is set in French. When syncing with Garmin from the Iphone, the langage is set back to English
- The watch displays a VMA, but Garmin connect displays a previous one (depending from where i'm looking at it)

Question : Would it be possible for swimming exercices to be considerated in the training status ?

Thanks again,

Kind Regards.

When syncing, there is a tendency for a wide range of settings on the watch to get overwritten by what is on the GC servers (and your phone). Use the device settings on the phone to set your language choice, and it should survive the sync.

Training status requires heart rate data. Garmin has deactivated OHR for swimming due to accuracy problems (the wrist slap with each stroke can cause issues), but if you use the HRM-TRI or HRM-SWIM chest straps, you should still get HR data

My bad : read VO2MAX instead of VMA ...
