Rep Counter v6.0 and exporting workouts

Hi all, new here with a Fenix 5 and was looking forward to the v6.0 upgrade to get rep counting. It is all loaded up successfully and is set to auto count, but am not getting anything recorded.
Anything I am missing to get it working ?

Am also having issues with sending custom workouts to the watch - get a synch issue when trying to do so, Think this is already a know problem, but any ideas on fixing ?

Thanks.

It would also be nice to be able to move the rep counter page in the app, its not in my sorting options and always the last page.

Otherwise its not that bad at counting. It even tries to guess what you are doing, its not that good as this though.

Just tried to edit mine, after trying to save i get a lot of red fields telling me to enter the time, time is still there as recorded by the app, and the red notifications are blocking the datafields anyway, totally screwed web interface.

I updated my Fenix 5 to sw 6.0 and reps count is working pretty well. The only problem I found when creating custom strenght training. If you insert type of exercise and weight into training the Garmin Connect will never sync with watch. As long as you put number of reps and rest time only it will sync with watch without any problem.

Thanks folks. After some reloading and general faffing about I have managed to get the rep counter working - just done a strength session and the rep counting and exercise recognition was not too bad - bit of editing within Connect and have a decent record of the session.

Will try your advice on loading custom sessions into the watch, although after today's experience it is probably quicker to just do the session and edit afterwards.

I am having this issue on my 5X. However, with the most recent update, Connect forces you to enter an exercise. I am having this issue with Strength and Cardio workouts created in the app. Is this a known issue with the current FW? If so, what is being done to resolve it? Thanks.
