Maximum profiles and maximum workouts

I do not follow the rationale for having a maximum number of profiles and a maximum number of workouts on a premium sports watch.

Surely these are restrictions that Garmin has imposed, but for what reason, I cannot fathom.

I seemed to hit the maximum number of profiles very quickly, by having a few variants based on for different types of runs.

In recent days, by adding some strength and yoga workouts to my running and cycling workouts, I've now hit the limit there.

Deleting things to add other things seems completely pointless from a user perspective; I am a very long way from hitting the limit of storage.

Can these limits be removed?

  • number of profiles - doesn't surprise me.

    workouts - hard limit is 25 - new beta update with workout section will help this as includes all workouts including breath work etc. Easiest way around this is one off or seldom used ones - don't save to watch - instead sync to your calendar and pick them up from the calendar option. These don't count towards that 25 limit.

    Can't confirm but suspect this is probably to assist with the watch being as lag free as possible.
