    Nice to see it is under development. I was hoping for a volume control, pulse ox, and sleep tracking fix.

    The graphs of the widgets are also inconsistent: some have white background, some black. Some appear right away, others have a slide transition.

    So basically this is Beta 5.21, plus "Fixed smart notification timeouts".

    but no battery consumption fix . BAD

    Yeah, I brought this to their attention recently as well... They told me that there is work underway to streamline the widget animations, so... hopefully in the next update.

    Wouldn't hurt emailing them about those issues though. They don't seem to check the forums.

    Any chance we could get a direct download link for the update?

    No it's not the same as beta 5.21

    The device usage widget, first seen in beta 5 21, has been removed.

    The widget is only for beta builds?

    Shame as I was finding it quite useful.

    If you want it you can leave me an email and I'll send it to you
    I saved it from the garmin Express system files when it updated my watch. 

    Regarding this update and sleep, I see it's now detecting more reliably when I'm up at night where it previously wouldn't. Ok, it's been one night so far, but let's see. Hope this is true. Walking across two rooms to fetch a glass of water never previously registered. Now it did.

    No battery drain fix? wtf? how long should i wait for this?

  • 0 over 4 years ago

    The software update got stuck on ‘restarting’ yesterday. I was able to get back to the home screen, although not sure how! Battery not charging now and some data not syncing (eg sleep). I have tried to update the software twice today but each time it stays stuck on ‘restarting’. Anybody else had this problem? or ideas on what I should o? Thanks

    "WOW"

    Edit: I now notice sleep tracking all of a sudden doubles the amount of deep sleep and more or less aligns with other applications (I'm testing three right now). Not perfect by any means (i.e. what's the point of sleep tracking if sleeping hours need to be fixed?), but not entirely out of whack.

    Edit 2: I was wrong, it is still very bad.
