To everyone with "instant" Speed and Pace issues, please register a support case. Meanwhile, a new data field is now available which uses an alternative algorithm.

Hi, many of us experience problems with the "instant" pace on our Fenix 6. Many explain that its due to poor GPS. But, that is not true. Its caused by a poor algorithm to calculate the "instant" pace.

So, if we all register a support case about the issue Garmin must fix the faulty algorithm. And yes, I got data that shows that I am right.

So, please register a support case if you have the same issue.

Data field with alternative algorithm can be downloaded here https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/6f188030-90a3-4e79-9b28-dd7b8c47e64d

A new public beta is now published. Version 0.9.14. Added user settings for "Show Pace/Speed/Distance data" and also a setting for "Data Rotation Speed". I'm having a backlog with PM:s but I will answer later on. No changes to the algorithm this time. It will come changes to that later on. Need to think about the solutions a bit more first.
