Widget "Device usage"

Gerd_NL over 1 year ago

What is the meaning of these abbreviations?

Asserts (e.g. 12)

BDM (e.g. 2.77mA(s=0)

GCM

BLE scan

The others are clear to me, but these???

Thanks in advance!

GCM: Garmin Connect Mobile (connection time to the smartphone)

BLE scan : Bluetooth Low Energy scan

Is this still available with the release version? Because it shouldn't be.

I'm now on 17.20 (non Beta) and this app has gone ... could it be, that it is only available in Beta versions?

Correct! It's a beta specific widget.

Yes, may be, but I have left the Beta pgm, I can not help there, because all is working fine for me, no complaints.

I use only the Golf activity, Walk activity and Bike activities (indoor and outdoor) and all activities are working fine for me. Also no problems with sleep mode, NAP's, connection problems and battery. May be there are here and there some hick-ups, but I don't mind. The epix pro 51mm is a fantastic smartwatch and the insight in all the health data gives me a good feeling. For me I can say: Well done Garmin!

So I do not miss the 'Device Usage'!

This post should have been posted in h the beta discussion forum for your watch family since ”device usage” just exist on betas to help write bug reports by show information that may be useful to add to report.

But what do you do, if you do not know if it is Beta related??? Afterwards always clear and simple ...

Ok, I see your point. If you really did not know then I guess you have to do as you did and post here
