Their answer is not clear unless you do some digging. Apparently &amp;quot;Activity Tracking&amp;quot; in the Garmin App for the Cirqa should be On (default setting) which you think might have been turned Off, or there is a true bug.</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: Keep loosing sync / pairing and having to re-pair</title><link>https://forums.garmin.com/sports-fitness/healthandwellness/f/index-sleep-monitor/435580/keep-loosing-sync-pairing-and-having-to-re-pair/2050375</link><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jul 2026 21:52:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">a9571b57-dd57-479e-8763-8f8a603e40aa:1cda7f1e-bbdc-4447-8bd5-2be5d29e8775</guid><dc:creator>Bullet</dc:creator><description>Happend to me yesterday when I put the band on to sleep Took me over 30 minutes to reset it by tapping 15 times and pair it again with my phone.

The lie type should be populated based on where the device recorded the shot on the map for the course. If playing a course with newly added tee boxes and the CourseView mapping is not up to date, that could cause rough as the lie type if our mapping still shows that location as rough. All of that being said, we&amp;#39;d like to take a closer look at this. Do we have permission to view your Garmin account and activity data to do so?

I find that if I do not follow the steps - sync watch, take off watch, turn on ISM, sync ISM, etc. - that is when I have issues with the ISM properly recording my sleep. When I follow the steps though, I have pretty much 100% success with the ISM. Recognizing everyone has different setups, watches, phones, patching levels, etc. Hopefully you are able to solve the challenges you are experiencing.</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: Index Sleep Monitor: Accuracy?</title><link>https://forums.garmin.com/sports-fitness/healthandwellness/f/index-sleep-monitor/441057/index-sleep-monitor-accuracy/2050165</link><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jul 2026 15:03:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">a9571b57-dd57-479e-8763-8f8a603e40aa:f00b6a2f-7468-4d06-8c80-2bdf01ac2d33</guid><dc:creator>DoctorCool</dc:creator><description>Hi. I have been wearing the ISM pretty much since it was released. What is that? Over a year now? I get trolled for saying I like the ISM, but I do. Here are my REM stats for the past few nights starting with last night. 1hr39m 1hr27m 2hr6m 1hr34min So yeah, based on my stats, I think your 30min is low. I&amp;#39;d say give the ISM a week or so to adjust to your sleep schedule. I think it takes time for the ISM to determine your baseline.</description></item><item><title>Forum Post: RE: Cirqa and a Fenix 8</title><link>https://forums.garmin.com/sports-fitness/healthandwellness/f/fenix-7/440921/cirqa-and-a-fenix-8/2050162</link><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jul 2026 14:56:00 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">a9571b57-dd57-479e-8763-8f8a603e40aa:1c80b2e1-c9d1-4c37-b68c-ee2caadd6563</guid><dc:creator>DoctorCool</dc:creator><description>Just curious.

The first night, it appears I triggered a pairing. I didn&amp;#39;t know what the flashing blue/purple light was, so I just took it off in the middle of the night. Come morning, it was still flashing, and the battery was almost gone. I got it out of that mode and wore it without event the second night. I feel it should have stopped trying to pair. I put it on before bed last night; it was at 100%. This morning it was at 40%. That is a little extreme. I wear a Fenix 8 every day. I track my workouts with it. I do not see the point in wearing the Cirqa at the same time, so I keep it near my bed. When I wear it at night, I get a lot of steps as I wake frequently.
