I meant live segments during course navigation. Yes, live segments, as a standalone feature, are now finally reliable for me when running on trails. I've been complaining to Garmin a lot about that.
However, the last time I remember trying that, live…
Welcome to the mess that is Garmin's implementation of the HealthKit API. The short answer here is that Garmin has failed to implement almost anything correctly for this integration. (other than a couple things like all day HR, or steps). Anything…
it's all about your cadence and a previous known average stride length measured using GPS outdoors - you can then trick the watch by deliberately taking a short stride length/high cadence on the treadmill - it thinks you're still running at your average…
Fenix 6 and all the new Garmin devices use the Sony chipset which I'm sure has different issues and uses a different algorithm.
I do not believe there is a direct relation to the GPS chipset. The situation may be perhaps better with different…
Ah, that's annoying, as I actually did want it to update, as currently my watch is saying my runs are short, so running 5km according watch has me needing to run 5.2km in reality, meaning my pace is slower which will also negatively affect my VO2 score…
It will help just for short time :D
If you will check the map, you will find that your trajectory is ok. So I guess Garmin is calculating the distance not in the cellphone, but in the band. If so, this is very dumb decision! The band can't count the distance…
So from this, if my understanding is correct, if I play a shot short of the green, then a chip and putt(s) to the hole, the yardage of my approach will be counted from where I enter the final score, and there is no way of designating the actual spot it…
I suspect it was due to a recent firmware update. I just checked my 62 device and see similar things happening. If it really bothers you, do a search for a wiki page for your Garmin Montana model. The wiki pages will sometimes keep most of the firmware…
Thank you very much!
Do you have a long distance event as primary race saved in your Garmin Calendar?
Actually I like the coach function in the devices ;) - but maybe the Fenix 7X is enough for that as it takes my jetlag and so on into account 
I am not…
