    hi,

    while waiting for the repair report back here :

    • the amount of FIT files in the ACTIVITY folder on your FR35
      • (when folder contains many fit files time for a backup/clean operation)
    • the amount of FREE memory on your FR35
      • (when low FREE memory, check above and below answer)
    • are you a MAC user
      • (empty BIN on device)
    • was this activity with a long duration or distance compared to previous activities
      • ( long ones use more memory )
    • was this activty with a pause somewhere during the activity

    happy & safe sporting

    • 28 FIT files in ACTIVITY folder
    • I wasn't sure how to determine how much free memory
    • Not a Mac user
    • It was longer compared to previous activities
    • There were several pauses/resume at stoplights and such

    Thank you very much!

    Thanks so much! Do you by any chance have a way of contacting the Garmin Connect app developers? I think it would be highly useful if the Connect app can notify users to clear memory when it is getting full. Thanks!

    would suggest to Call Garmin Support so that they can make a case number and add yours to it

    there was a time when the fit files were removed after transfer

    now it is up to the user to keep everything nice and tidy Slight smile

    happy & safe sporting
