• RE: WatchUi.requestUpdate() twice ?

    For the millionth time I don't write code with multiple requestUpdates and I have no intention of doing so, in a real app.

    I only did it in testing bc the OP brought it up. It's called intellectual curiosity.

    That doesn't stop me from wishing…

  • RE: Import Saved Locations?

    Another option is Garmin's BaseCamp. I think you could use that to add locations.

    The 530 has the same navigation functions as the 830 it just does not have the address and POI data base. It will create a route to one of your saved locations. The…

    Thanks for the add!
    I have a troubleshooting question. I went on a Trail run today, and my data is saved on my Garmin 5 and shows all data from today on the watch.
    But it doesn’t synch to Garmin Connect or Strava.
    This is first time. Yesterday run was no…
  • RE: Walking activities

    What about the "treadmill"-activity? It seems to indicate reasonable pace and distance when I use it.
    My issue with it is that it seems to have a fixed step length, so it is only accurate for one pace. It underestimates my speed when I am sprinting…

  • RE: Venu - swim pool length

  • RE: Why is Garmin Express not detecting the sd card in my Etrex 32X

    Perhaps the card is formatted with an incorrect filesystem. I believe (although I might be mistaken) the etrex 32 supports FAT32 filesystems only, and some newer cards come in exFAT. Recently, I had that issue with a Garmin Dash Cam. The cam refused to…

  • RE: Garmin inreach mini

    30 seconds, 1, 2, and 5 minutes. At 30 seconds, the GPS radio remains on at all times. This is really hard on battery life. In situations where the GPS radio is turned off between logged points, the unit tries to balance fix accuracy with conserving power…

    1. Is anyone else experiencing a recent problem counting stairs? I upgraded the firmware some time ago, so that is not recent. However, the past two days I have had nearly 20 floors counted, which is not anywhere close to accurate. I have gotten stairs…
  • Active miles throughout day

    Hi new to garmin, is it possible to see the miles you have walked during your day along with your steps? My Fitbit used to calculate steps into miles which I loved but can’t see this on garmin. Only miles that show up on the watch are those I’ve completed…
