The VO2 Max has never been updated

Previously, I used vivosmart 4 as my tracker for running activity with connected GPS, and it works fine. The VO2 Max was always updated correctly.

But after I switched the tracker to vivosmart 5, and removed the VS4, the VO2 Max value has never been updated. By the way, I run with connected GPS for many times after wearing vivosmart5.

How should I fix it?

Hello AndyLiu! Have you manually triggered a VO2 Max Reading on this watch since owning? Getting Your VO2 Max. Estimate If not, I recommend giving that a try and follow the on screen prompts until deemed complete.

For more information on how VO2 Max is tracked and how often it is updated, please see What Is VO2 Max Estimate and How Does It Work? or Running Science.

Thanks!

Hi Sara,

Thanks.

I have tried it twice by following Getting Your VO2Max. Estimate, but the data is still not updated.

I'm not quite sure if the value is calculated by the band or cloud.

Maybe a reset can fix it?

After I received a firmware update this morning, the VO2 Max value can be updated on both VS5 and Connect now.
