Activity Records After Almost Every Ride

etsaltzman

When I finish and save rides I am getting notifications of new records for distance, speed, etc. after most rides even though I have had better results on prior rides using the 850. I can see these prior rides are in my history on the devices so am wondering why the 850 thinks the new activity set a record. This is more of a nuisance than a real problem, but it is something that worked fine on my prior Edge devices.

    I would like to turn these notifications off completely. I'm really not that shallow. But to be congratulated on a new distance PB after every activity no matter what distance I did is just annoying. As you say, it's a bug/feature on 850 that I did not have with 830.

    When you get a notification of a personal record you have to accept it. Then you‘ll get only better results as a new record.

    Thank you. That is different than prior Edge devices and it is not obvious how you save the record. There is no prompt that I noticed. I have been clicking the check box in the upper right corner of the screen to move to the screen with the ride summary data. I will look the next time a record pops up. From a feature request/bug fix perspective, I would like to either be able to turn record reporting off and have it work like it use to (not require any user action to record a record and not show records until the prior one is broken).

    No. That's not it.  You have to accept it (tap the tick) to get away from the highlights page so I do that after every ride. 

    I've just finished a lazy recovery ride of 28k and 420m climbing. Much less than yesterday and a lot less than rides I've done in the last two weeks but yet again the stupid device congratulated me for records for distance and climbing. 

    It's a bug, a pest and not a feature. I'd like to turn 'highlights' off.

    This is exactly my experience and I agree it is a bug. It is completely random when it seems to forget prior rides and show a new record.

    I do not agree that this is a bug.  I like that I need to go to the Connect App and accept the record.  Sometimes, I do not want to accept it.  I get PR's sometimes because I have a 20 mph wind at my back.  I don't like to accept those.  it was not a genuine PR.

    That could be a feature if it worked that way consistently and was documented. I have never, in many years of using various models of the Edge, accepted a record in Connect. My records kept updating just fine and never reset to lower numbers. My Edge 850 randomly resets the records. It had not done it for a while but after today's ride showed new records in a long list of categories, all of which were below what I had done in rides over the past week.
