Power-to-Weight Ratio Widget for Index S2

I have an Edge 530 (and a Forerunner 745) and I keep track of my Cycling Functional Threshold Power (FTP) in Garmin Connect. When I go to my Index S2 (fw 2.08) widget screen in Garmin Connect there is an option to enable "Power-to-Weight Ratio" Widget available (in between "Weight Trend" and "Weather" in my screenshot).

I have tried toggling it on and off and letting the scale sync a couple of times but the widget never appears on the scale.

Is this a real working widget and has anyone made it work on their scale?

There is a new firmware that enables said function.

How can we get this new firmware?

Is this data also going to be visible in the app or just on the scale? What is it anyway and how is it calculated?

It suppose to do it automatically over the night. Mine have not done it yet...

Mine neither.

Okay, power to weight is now appearing on the scale after it updated to 2.12. The new firmware didn't really show up anywhere as available. I had to press reset on the scale so it will sync to Garmin Connect then it updated afterwards. No idea if Body Fat % has been fixed though.

Well it syncs with GC after every weigh in so I do not think resetting is necessary. I am still waiting on mine. Do not know if it is really changing anything significant...

Yes, theoretically pressing reset is not necessary. But the issue is that the new firmware is not appearing as live. Pressing the reset button on the scale updated the firmware even without a new firmware notification if that makes sense. Pressing reset doesn't clear any data from the scale.

Yes I know, but requires new pairing and setup ;)

No pressing reset once doesn't require new pairing and setup. It will just put the scale in setup mode but all settings are still saved. Its different from a factory reset. You can read about it in the manual
