FR 945 - no Updates since months?

Hello,

are there no more updates for the FR 945?
Otherwise these came regularly and since 3 months it has become quiet.

Still wish me a scheduler for an automatic flight mode. (To reduce radiation in the night)

Greetings and thanks
Steffen

  • What are you experiencing that makes you say it's a "bad product that needs to be quickly replaced"? 

    Many, probably can't even remember them all, but at least these:
    Button issues, HW design or build issue, probably HW design (ps. Have now D-rev and no, after a while there's numb button again, not the premium feeling with soft mushy buttons)
    Bad GPS chipset (good for power they say, bad for general accuracy, issues with open water, still issues with swimrun)
    Map update issues (pain to reinstall, reinstall, reinstall)

    But the general experience itself, has not been so great, with 935 I was wow, this is good and everything to seemed work for me and then getting 945 and experiencing multiple issues.

    Like now if I press start from the watch face it takes 4+ seconds before nothing happens, I don't know what started to cause this lag, it feels also lagish to change the sports in swimrun.

    Swimrun issue? It looses swims or might even have jumps in Trail run, but latest updates for speed spikes in kayaking maybe helped with trail run jumps, But still this is not acceptable:

    So it's not about new features, it's the current features not really working and HW design choices/issues.
