Disable auto sync

Hi,

Is it possible to only sync manually activites, but at the same time, still be connected to my iPhone to receive notifications?

Thank you.

    Example one case is that you do some orienteering competition, you shouldn't post the activity at least as public before everyone has started and finished. Otherwise they could benefit from your activity track telling where the controls most likely are.

    To which that isn't nice solution, you want to upload, but you want to decide when.

    I don't know nice solution to this problem, it's like, disable BT from the watch or mobile and enable later, but then no notifications during that.

    Another workaround would be set the default visibility for new activities as private and then change the activity visibility when you can and change the setting. But it needs you remember and go to GC change the setting twice and activity once. Notifications would work. 

    Of course bettrave77 might have different reasons, but maybe he/she should tell why :)

    Hi e7sandy,

    I just bought a new 945. When I do bike ride, I start both my 945 and my Edge 530. Eventually, I will only use my Edge, but for now, I like to compare both data juste for fun. However, for my total stats, I have to delete the data from the 945.

    It's not big deal, but I was wondering if they were a way simplier than deleting the datat after.

    Thank you.

    Bettrave, personally what I do is I use my edge purely for during the activity to have as a display. I do record it as it's own activity as a back up, (ie forgot to charge the watch or whatever the case maybe) and then delete the activity once I've made sure it has saved on my watch. I guess my reasoning is I record my runs and swims with the watch, might as well record the rides as well. So to answer your question, once you get to the point you are ready to only use the Edge, just hit stop and discard instead of save, and it'll only upload the activity from the device you want.
