Why it doesn't upload activities automatically ?

razz

wifi configured, auto-sync on, wifi on.

however when I finish my activitiy, nothing happens, I have to enter into connected features and manually click "wifi sync" - note that i don't have to do anything else (network configured, auto-sync is ON, etc.  phone connection is off to save battery).

I think it worked a bit better a few months ago...

WTF ?

    try to remove the wifi network, switch off the device completely, switch on, re-pair the network and test it again

    I would recommend to remove the device from the Connect app and Bluetooth settings then re-pair. To remove the device you would open the Connect app > More > Garmin Devices > Edge 840, click the top right button with the three dots and select Remove Device. Double-check in your phones Bluetooth that the Edge is also removed.

    To re-pair, you would swipe down from the home screen on the Edge > Phone > Pair Phone. You would next open the Connect app > More > Garmin Devices > Add Device.

    This should help fix the activities to start syncing again. If it does not, I would recommend to use Garmin Express to sync. You would use a personal computer then plug the device in with the charging cable. Here is the download link for Express: https://www.garmin.com/en-US/software/express/windows/

    As I mentioned, I don't use bluetooth (or try not to use it to save battery - I could enable it, yes, but WHY? If it should sync by WiFi, right? )  also, You don't have Garmin Express for Linux? do You ?
