Why do weekly Intensity minutes start from Monday when I set my "week start" to Sunday?

Hello all,

I can't get my weekly intensity minutes to start counting from Sunday to Saturday even when I set my Fenix 7 first day of the week to Sunday.

My watch still counts from Monday to Sunday, I really like the feature but it confuses me when it gets back to Zero on Monday.

Really hope there is a way to change that or that Garmin will fix it if it is not a hidden setting that I couldn't find.

Thanks

Eran

This bug is so old I didn't even remember it until you mentioned. Crazy how it's not fixed yet.

Well in my case I just changed it to Monday and forget that Sunday option, since it won't work properly.

From Garmin. This has been an issue for 3 years. Doesn't look like Garmin is going to fix it.

The response was as follows:

It will automatically be set to Monday. Please see article.

Slightly off the topic, but I wish intensity minutes was a rolling 7 days as opposed to a Monday-Sunday number.

Same, it's not like anything resets on Monday, and a week being 7 days, it will vary anyway it you follow a strict training plan.

I do a 2 day pause and that gives me one week with 3 followed by two weeks with 2 trainings interchanging.

Then you are in the wrong forum. The vivoactive forum is located here :

BUT from the posts above it seems to be „by design“ :
