My Garmin enters in power save mode even during activity

Hi,

I did today a run with my Garmin Fenix 5 plus. It was the first after a few days of inactivity and I think it was the first after new firmware upgrade.

well, my watch every 5 minutes entered in power save mode even if I was running.

GPS signal was good, the watch was recording and even if I pressed lap or other button after 5 minutes I was back to the watch face and I had to manually press the start button to return to the activity.
I already rebooted the watch.
any other ideas besides wiping and factory reset?

thanks.

It seems it was an issue of some watch faces or apps not updated after the firmware update.
I now have updated all of them in Connect IQ app and the issue seems to be resolved.
