Disable "On course" alert?

Hi,

Anyone know how to disable the "on course" navigation alert in the Fenix 6? There's a setting for the "off course" alert but I can't see one for the "on course" alert and it's annoying and a waste of battery life on long hikes.

Alternatively, does anyone know how to expand the distance tolerance for what is considered on course? If I could expand this to, say, 1000 meters then the "on course" alert wouldn't need to trigger, except maybe at the start.

Thanks,

Michael

Yep. All handled politely already.

I just received an email from Garmin support that they've addressed this problem and the update will be available shortly. They didn't say in which upcoming version.

Seems this is still an issue even on firmware 20.20.

Another vote for this - had >100 alerts on my latest 7 mile hike and almost tossed my watch (and myself) down the cliff.

I can't believe this hadn't been fixed, it's so frustrating. I'm not able to follow a course function as the alerts are so frequent.
