    This app looks fantastic and there is so much potential in it.

    I would love to see a "Runner" or "Trail Runner" app based on this which would include the following:
    - some level of configuration of the fields shown on the main screen…

    Current lap, current lap time and current distance can all be done programmatically .. I just did it recently for my app and I am not a proficient Connect IQ developer yet. So it is not that hard to do.


    I just did this for my Snapshot data field as well…
  • RE: Pace vs average lap pace - can anyone explain how this chart is even remotely possible?

    - OTOH, current/instant pace is estimated every second by the watch (from GPS or accelerometer). Notice how the current pace data field on the watch is always rounded to the nearest 5 seconds (e.g. 4:35, 4:40, 4:45). This is because Garmin doesn't consider…

  • RE: No heart rate alerts

    Ok, I get that. But then it would be convenient if I could see the current pace (as suggested by the workout plan) and the current heart rate on one screen. Currently, when I stay on the first screen of the workout plan, I see my pace as a gauge and it…

  • RE: fenix 6x navigation details respective to waypoints and route elevation

    Hi,

    I create my tracks with plotaroute.com. I also have a subscription so that it syncs the tracks to Garmin Connect automatically which is really nice.

    Regarding waypoints:

    When i create a route it adds automatically those waypoints as you said (turn…

  • RE: Strange GPS Plot of Hike and Inaccurate ETE

    Ya, you had 25 hours of "radio silence" on your GPS signal, starting 3 hours after your activity began, and didn't finally get a GPS lock again until over a day later. Sounds like probably you paused your activity and forgot to resume it until you were…

  • RE: Bug in the interval workout screen with "pace" as target. The watch doesn't use instant pace.

    Actually this can be seen as bug, or at least as misleading UI design. Initially my interpretation of the display on the watch was that this is the live pace, at no point does the word "average" appear. Had to learn by experimentation that this simply…

    Hi all,

    I have recently bought the Vivoactve 3 music which I have been mostly impressed with apart from one area which is the accuracy of the pace field. Not only is the current pace a work of fiction half of the time even the averaged lap pace is really…

  • RE: Average Pace

    i know what you mean. sorry my english is not the best.

    FYI:  i don't mean the recording interval. it does not matter when you change it. it is only the amount of data written in the fit file. even when you have smart recording on, the gps ping is for…

  • All-in-one running data field

    There are several all-in-one data fields for running. I *think* I've tried them all, but I can't find any that show just what I'm looking for. Here's what I'd like to see in an all-in-one for running:

    Pace (current pace - an option…
