Recovery time + VO2 max not working on third party watchfaces since 15.05

While this data field isn't officially supported for this device in the SDK, it was working fine on third-party watch faces until the last update. It now appears to be missing, and the same seems to be true for VO2 max data for both running and cycling.

This is a bit strange, as this feature is available on the Vivoactive 5 and Venu 3, and it was working fine on third party faces until this recent change.

  • Fortunately, I still have them on my custom watch face.

    Having to pay/subscribe for future features is one thing; being scared during every single update that basic functionality will be destroyed is beyond me, especially after paying the fair price that Garmin asks for those watches…

    Software support is horrendous; I will definitely give another brand their chance after this one.
