VO2 max not updating on Garmin Connect, and physio true up poor with two devices.

I like many things about my Edge 830, eg following a planned route and the astonishing battery life, but I have found several frustrating issues.

In the 10 days of use my 830 has measured the VO2 max several times yet none of the results have appeared on Garmin Connect. Also, the synchronization between my Forerunner and 830 is really poor. After 7 days the training load on one is over 800, and on the other it is just over 600 so the load is either too high and I should rest, or optimal. At times one device says I am unproductive, whilst the other says I am productive. Several times the Garmin Connect site did not agree with the devices so I have seen three different evaluations of my efforts. I hope the sync issues get sorted soon, along with the on-device route planning which gives worse results than my old 810.

Hi!

I face exactly same as you, their support make me gave up to reply the email, they just do nothing

I wonder if Garmin is going to fix this or not? We've passed the middle of August a while ago. Maybe Garmin meant August 2020?

Still nothing from Garmin. Looks like they don't have a fix for the issues.

I wonder if this has been my issue as well. I think I'll disable WiFi on my 830. I noticed my Training Status and even Intensity Minutes don't update after recording a ride on my 830.

yesterday my vo2max increased and i see it on my Edge, but the new vo2max wasn't synced to Garmin Connect, it's the first time after some month of working here

Did you try to sync with Garmin Express to understand if in this way is working? Are you using Android or iPhone?

Could you share with us the page of Garmin Connect App with VO2Max?

i synced with Express and Android, the vo2max of this ride won't be synced to the Garmin Ecosystem, i only see the vo2max of the ride 3 days before

the blue line is cycling vo2max, the green is running:

on saturday 15th of february i got the last sync of vo2max from Edge to Garmin Web/Android, on 17th of february i made a ride with vo2max increase, this one i only can find on my Edge and not in Garmin Web/Android, the ride himself was synced with Training Load, this point is OK as always.

i think, the ride on 17th of feb is good enough for vo2max change, when you look on my zones:

minimum 20 minutes greater than 70% of maximum heart rate with fairly constant power output is needed for vo2max calculation and i think, thats done!
