    Same here I think it announces total average pace instead of lap average pace. It also deoesn't announce lap number as it used to, very disppointing.

    Having only just got 15.09, some positive things:

    • Notifications now seem a bit more slick.
    • The default watch face now responds to long touches on date and stats fields, taking you to calendar, HR graph, steps graph, etc.
    • Sleep schedule means I can differentiate between work days and weekends.
    • Turn off automatic detection of new sensors. (Silly thing anyway. I had a lady behind me when lining up for parkrun start exclaim that her 745 was offering her to pair with an RD pod -- mine.)

    Hi, I'm not in the Beta program. Please could you attach a screenshot / photo about this one?

    I really hate the current notification layout. Did they manage to show more content? Slight smile

    Yes, the initial notification time is shorter and it does seem to have about 50% more text on screen.

    Hi. The firmware seems generally good. One issue is that I can't select a point on the map using the crosshairs and Start button as before.

    Yes, you can. There are for sure more ways how to do it, I use one of these:

    1) Start or even only Select a GPS activity (Like Run, Walk, Hike, etc.) -> go to Map data screen (you need to add one if it is not included by default at that activity)  -> long press UP  -> Pan/Zoom  ->  select a point with crosshair  -> long press START/STOP  ->  select a point to navigate, if more than one is offered  -> Go

    2) Start or even only Select a GPS activity (Like Run, Walk, Hike, etc.) -> long press UP  -> Navigation -> Use Map ->  select a point with crosshair  -> long press START/STOP  ->  select a point to navigate, if more than one is offered  -> Go

    Hi. Thank you! I see that you can also go to Start Navigate and Use Map and it works there too. I was trying Start and the Map and then it doesn't work. I believe it used to work there too. But the above options are more than enough.

    The navigation to map point in Start -> Map works,  but you need to enter the panning/zooming mode by long pressing UP and selecting Pan/Zoom. If you enter the panning/zooming mode by tapping the screen, then navigation to point does not work (long pressing START does nothing).

    This bug (long pressing START does nothing, when the panning/zooming mode is entered by tapping the screen) has been there since the release and Garmin seems to have "solved" this issue by removing the tapping option from most of the activities. And obviously in Start -> Map, the tapping option is still there.
