data fields in Venu4 can't be changed and show ridiculous metrics

Roja55

after an update the running data screens were somehow changed. Included are body battery and hours to sundown. Not very useful indeed. All I want are BPM, distance, time in run. I am unable to get these on my watch. With Garmin connect these data field simply do not show up to select, but all the other useless fields can easily be selected. From the watch it is next to impossible to change the data fields at all.

Before the update, the data fields while running were what I wanted. After the update, they are messed up. Pls inform me how I can reset the data fields to the original position, or how in practice what is the easiest way to get simple data fields on my watch.The manual doesn't help much.

    Hi, there are multiple ways to edit the data fields for the run activity:

    If you are wanting to restore to defaults (which would only apply for that activity) and have the original data fields you would follow these steps: 

    1. From the watch face, swipe left.
    2. Select Activities, and select an activity.
    3. Scroll down, and select run settings.
    4. Select Restore Defaults.

    If you want to edit you can either do this through the watch or through the Connect app. I would recommend going through the app since it has an easier layout with editing. To do this you would open the Connect app > More > Garmin Devices > Venu 4 > Activities > Run > Data Screens. From there you can either add a data screen, or tap on an existing field which will open for you to edit the layout (if you only want 3 options) and allow you to select each field to change what it displays.
