    First ride with 8.08, no problems found.

    The same issues I had with 8.06/8.07 are still occurring in 8.08.

    The main issue for me is with CIQ Apps & Widgets, which communicate with a mobile device to download routes. I’ve tried the Grouteloader, Gimporter & IQ Map Receiver apps & all are taking ages to download routes that previously would have taken less than a minute.

    The Ride with GPS app stalls at the Loading splash screen unless I switch bluetooth off on my phone, open the CIQ app then turn bluetooth on the phone back on. There's certainly something screwy going on. I thought it might be a GCM issue, but I rolled back to a version of GCM that I knew worked but even that version had the same symptoms.

    One new? thing I spotted was that ANT+ sensors frequently don't auto connect, which previously happened very rarely & the edge remote seems to be less responsive, sometimes requiring a few presses to change screens. The rapid flash of the Green LED seems to indicate to me that it is disconnecting/reconnecting.  For some reason this seems to happen more frequently when using an Indoor profile, though not sure on the reasons for this.

    Still have the phone<>1030 connection problem with 8.08 - I can only get the two units to establish a connection by rebooting my phone *after* the 1030 has powered up. Once the connection is established, it seems pretty stable - I usually get just a couple of "phone disconnected" followed by "phone connected" messages appearing on the 1030 during each activity.

    The problem is definitely with the 1030, as I also have a 1000, and when I use it, it connects to the phone every time as soon as it powers on without any stuffing around needed, nor do I get the "disconnected/connected" messages appearing.

    Phone is a Pixel 2 running Android 10 and latest version of GCM.

    Connect shows 8.08 incorrectly as 8.8.0.0 on mobile and web.

    On my first outing yesterday on one Strava segment the Strava segment display got stuck. However, activity still kept on running so switching screen was sufficient fix.

    the climb pro function is late and shows the climb when it is already over. positioning offset with the gps?

    Last ride I did ClimbPro was also always off. It was starting climb's some 250m too late and completing them another 250m too early. I could see the proper profile on the elevation page but the ClimPro profile appeared to be off. I will need to pay attention with my next ride to see if the same thing happen again
