• [Fenix 6 Pro Solar] - The map in Garmin Connect is inaccurate, but it's correct in Strava.

    Hello, I've just purchased a Fenix 6 Pro Solar watch. I started a short run to test out my watch and felt really bad about it. It performed worse than I had expected. Please take a look at the distance I ran on Garmin Connect and Strava (Strava was…

  • Treadmill adjustment doesn‘t work anymore

    I‘m twice a day on a treadmill, for about 30 to 45 minutes each. 
    Usually that leads to 3.5 to 5.5 kilometers per training.
    So far the distances of the watch and the treadmill were pretty close (within 10%) most of the time. 
    In most cases the watch came…

  • How do I record a manual (not auto lap) lap?

    I’ve been running tempo runs and my coach is asking me to do short repeats and I need to use the lap button manually not auto lap in order to record the speed and distance of the lab

  • RE: Swimming

    I wonder why the F245 doesn't seem to use GPS when there is a good connection (e.g. in case you're swimming outside). In 25m or 50m pools it should be easy to count the laps using GPS/Glonass/Galileo (either solely or as an additional source…
  • Current pace issues - Fenix 6 pro

    I've recently purchased a fenix 6 pro as an upgrade from my FR654M and been really disappointed with the accuracy of the current pace data field. It seems to always read a lot slower than the actual pace and a lot of runs actually come in slightly short…

    I tried in today's run if anything has changed with the 2.70 update.

    It does not seem so.

    Instinct is still cutting short by about 1.5% on open sky and about 3% under tree cover.

    it seems that you have to use a calibrated footpad to get accurate running…

    Hi guys,
    I have totally different experiences with Ultratrac mode on Fenix 5s Plus now (Dec 2019) -> the indicated distance is underestimated (i.e., shorter than the reality).
    Look at the picture from the last short trip. The total distance based on…

    Hi

    Is there anyway to STOP the Edge 25 trying to switch ANT+ lights on automatically?

    This feature sounds like a really good idea until -

    You have two ANT+ lights on your bike and it can you a bit random which gets turned on
    You have two bikes, you…
  • RE: Difference between ‘Run’ profile and ‘Trail Run’ profile.

    • Thanks Mcbadger. It's working well for me, I was just curious on the difference as I tend to select trail. I'm trying to push up the vo2 max and I'm battling a permanent unproductive status, and so definitely want to track it. I think for consistency…
  • RE: Laufstrecke > falsche Streckenlänge

    Save the activity as Course (possible in Garmin Connect Web), and then see what distance it shows in Courses. Or (if you use Strava), use the function Correct Distance on Strava's web (not available on the app!), and see the distance there.

    If the…
