Bug ? Intensity minutes ! When using 2 watches, the device priority (primary smartwatch) is ignored in Connect.

I wear my 2x on my left arm, and my tactix 7 pro on my right arm.

In Connect, I have configured the tactix 7 pro as both the primary training device and the primary smartwatch.

In this scenario, I expect the data collected by the primary smartwatch (tactix 7) to have priority for the intensity minutes and then this tactix data will also have priority in Connect. However, this is not the case.

If the Instinct 2x records a higher value than the tactix, this higher value is shown in Connect. So not the value of the watch that I have configured as the primary smartwatch.

I wore both watches today as described above.
Tonight at 22:39 I synchronized the tactix first. The recorded value for today appears in Connect.

38 minutes of intensity.

Immediately afterwards, I synchronized the Instinct 2x. This recorded 248 (!!) intensity minutes for today.

The "primary smartwatch" setting seems to be obsolete if the values are IGNORED in Connect and are given priority by the values of another NON-primary device.

sync tactix 7 - primary smartwatch : 



AFTER Sync 2x solar NONE primary device : 

From support article : 

„…The watch set as your Primary Wearable will break any ties between multiple activity trackers. Daily health metrics like sleep, body battery, and steps will be tracked by your set Primary Wearable over data from non-primary wearable devices when the data is equal or recorded at the same time...“
