Developer criticism for the software in the 955 watch

Permiteme que discrepe. Hay errores que se arrastran desde que el dispositivo salio al mercado hace ya muchos meses, en concreto la imposible gestión de mapas de terceros , que era una insignia de Garmin hasta hoy . Este problema está reportado muuuchas veces y aún persiste y este solo es un ejemplo 

Garmin resolves it in 2 days? Which forum are you on? Backlight bugs have been reported for months but no fixes. The interval warm up crash took months to fix.

There is very little collaboration. You report a bug that is easy to recreate, a moderator (must be a tough job) then has to contact you and go through a cumbersome bug reporting process via email. You then have to cross your fingers that the developers fix it before the next release, else the bug gets ignored, and you have to resubmit the bug.

Garmin need to rethink some of their policies. Releasing multiple watches without unified software/firmware that contains bugs that are difficult to report is not consumer friendly at all.

Sorry but you can't say that it's "pretty new", an eletronic device is pretty new at day one. With Garmin 955 we are more than 6 months since release date and in fact people are looking at 965...
This is like an alpha/beta device selled for lot of money. These bugs are okey if they give it for free or for a few money, I need to trust the device I payed I can't weake up and have my device at low battery for a bug. It's okey if I'm at work/home witha cable with me, but I bought it for the battery and the possibility to make excursions long more than one day without charging it. Or I'll buy a smartwatch that can do what Garmin does plus lot of more functionality

The LHTR bug it's a critical bug (just most people don't realize all their data is wrong) that is not being addressed by Garmin and it's present since day 1

This is another huge problem, most of the bugs reported are obvious UI bugs/crashes. If the UI has so many bugs, it's not unreasonable to conclude that the behind the scenes algorithms/metrics are buggy as well.

Currently the training status/load is broken. If I don't exercise the bands go up. If I do exercise the bands go down, the opposite of the way it used to work.

In the same way the new chronic load feature goes the opposite way it should. If I take a day off, it goes up. If I exercise it goes down. Consequently it says I'm overreaching when I'm doing no more than normal.

Since it's supposed to be a four week window of load, I suppose my data is going to be broken for at least four weeks.

I'm addicted to metrics... And I can assure all data, calculations and predictions on the 955 are wrong.

the LHTR bug messes up everything.

And Garmin don't care.

(And if you use 2 or more Garmin devices then is the Armageddon... That never worked properly )

They dont test anything.

They have broken the power graph on the last release!! How they didn't notice that?? It's a graph and now appears empty!

BECAUSE THEY DONT TEST ANYTHING 

They just fix cosmetic bugs... But never fix the metrics bugs because only few people are able to understand those

I got 14.15, and it's eating the battery like crazy. Like 1,5%/hour, so 36%/24h. 

I'm running a trail run competition today, and I have to charge the watch again even though I charged it yesterday.

I wish I could downgrade to 14.13.

As with previous versions, zero battery drain here

Me as well . Battery is great my side
