D2 Mach 1 Bugs/Feature Requests

Im using this great watch for almost a week now and

Bugs:

My watch randomly changed language into English twice 

SpO2 during the flight doesn't work

It's impossible to use topo maps in Map activity other than fly map - map manager is highly requested,

After favorite airport picked once it stuck on it. Changing it to another doesn't change airport data and weather.

As for the rest I'm signing under what AV8OR51 wrote!

For now other than that I'm absolutely in love with it!

I just got the v8.18 on my Mach 1. It looks like SpO2 is working on the Fly app. Please comment on your experience with the new firmware.

What can you tell about accuracy of the SpO2 reading?

Altimeter calibration using DEM is also a feature i hope we will get very soon.

I am also not a fan of the altimeter widget and would like to have also the same ABC widget than on epix/fenix.

I’m on 8.37 and can’t get the auto fly to work. No matter what I set it to it reverts to “disabled” as soon as I sync with connect.. any ideas?

I have the exact same problem. I fixed it by resetting the "flying"-app to factory defaults. But this doesnt work forever and you have to repeat the reset. It's a bit annoying since your custom data pages are lost and you have to make them again when resetting the app.

Support tells me it’s an app problem and that they have sent it to the developers. They were able to replicate it on their end.  So hopefully we get a solution soon. 

Bug Report ; SW version8.37

When travelling abroad.. changing favorite airport to Nearest or manually selecting an airport as favorite

• Weather data on main clock face data fields remain blank (---)

I had restart the clock to populate the fields with data

Just upgraded to the the Mach 1 largely based on the reviews showing the metars and crosswind data on the watch.  I frankly can’t get it to reliably work.

1. Sometimes the data fields are blank.  Maybe it is a Bluetooth issue but even with connect open on my phone it doesn’t always work.  I tried clicking the fly button which use to force my d2 ox to work but that doesn’t seem to work now.  

2. I bought it at oshkosh and set my favorite airport as nearest which worked while I was there at kosh. I assumed as I flew home it would keep updating to the nearest airport.  Nope still tells me oshkosh data.  What’s the point of giving me winds and metar data for an airport 200 miles behind me?

3 I updated my favorite to my local airport, which I think is a drag as noted above.  Should update automatically, but even manually updating didn’t work.  The watch face updated but the glances did not.  Is this user error.  The av weather was for fond du lac which isn’t where I started or where I am now.  Really a head scratcher

4 if you have ads b with garmin pilot do you know if the watch will update metar data in the air?  I guess my question is where does the data come from? Connect or can you push it from garmin pilot?  

5 lastly it would be nice if garmin pilot would somehow indicate how old the data is.  I can see that if I open the glance but on the face of the watch I have no idea how old the data is.  

So maybe there is some user error.  I was jazzed to have a watch displaying the metar, preferred runway and cross wind but at the end of the day I have zero confidence I. This feature.  Sometimes the data is missing.  Sometimes the data is for the wrong airport.  Sometimes it’s for the right airport but it’s old data.  Seems like a way to interject confusion more than being a useful tool. Is there a way to get this in front of the developers?
