Please fix the issue with "on course" alerts. The option to disable them completely would be nice.

How about automatic heart rate tracking during activities like running, hiking ... even when it is disabled. That function is very handy on Samsung Galaxy Watch but found nowhere on Garmin. I dont' want 24/7 hr tracking but want it to automatically work every my training without enabling it again.

One of the best function that can be easily implemented.

Just a note - without the HR you'll loose the most of the "smart" features of the watch - Body Battery, Stress Monitoring, Sleep Monitoring, Calories expenditure, Intensity Minutes, some Insights, average Resting HR stats, etc, etc ... - all those functions are depending on the HR monitoring.

My Heart Rate Monitor hardly works at all. At one point it showed 40bpm, but it was not reflected in the numerical history nor the graph. It had never recorded or graphed a HR lower than 55bpm, when I'm verified lower than that, and it often reads up over120bpm when that never happens. It also stops working for no apparent reason leaving no reading at all. Maybe I'm Lazarus.
