Is there a way to rename the custom data screens we create?

I've created a layout that I like and moved it to the top of my list of screens, but the name is "Screen 3". I know it's a small thing, but is there any way to change that to read "Main" instead of "Screen 3"?

    I understand the request, but there is no way to rename screens at this time. Your solution of re-ordering the screens is the best solution if you do not wish to edit Screen 1.

    I came from a WAHOO and the APP Connection is incredible, makes Garmin sooooooooo behind in some ways.  Navigation, I need IQApps, that aren't even by Garmin to get routes on the device....and last time it didn't sync right!  geez.

    Now these screens I've created are all named 12, deleted 4 so jumps to 5 and then 6......I have not reference to what I created and why without a NAME for reference....

    This has to be overlooked for some reason by Garmin...  Let's not mention the Karoo 2 coming up in features SUPER FAST.  

    Come on Garmin.....let's go!  That's alright Garmin, I still have 30 days to return this thing....make me a new user please!

    Fair enough and I understand limitations.  This is good information for me and others to make future decisions on.  Thank you for the reply.

    @garmin-blake to confirm this is a limitation in the garmin ecosystem, not just the 530...meaning the 830 and 1030 series have this same limitation?

    That is correct, you cannot rename a Data Screen on the Edge products.

    Is Garmin going to create that option soon? I come from a Wahoo and  this is an useful feature they put into the wahoo app , so I can't see what is holding Garmin back to put this also in their connect app....? Technical unfeasible? would surprise me :-) ?
