Forerunner 955 barometer trend arrow misbehavior

Hi,

After several weeks of using my 955 I noticed that even if the barometric pressure decrease, watchface barometer trend arrow does not change... For example, yesterday morning (08/50) pressure was 1009.4 mbar. After about 5 hours (13/55) pressure decreased to 1005.2 mbar but barometer trend arrow was still horizontal... The barometer plot is set to 6-Hour option. Does anyone know how much pressure is needed and how long it takes to get the arrow to change direction? Any info would be appreciated )

    I downloaded the third party Barometer app from Connect IQ and its trend arrow works great, while the native one still stays horizontal despite recent major pressure changes. It looks like the misbehavior of the trend arrow is due to a software bug. I spoke to Garmin support about this and also submitted the idea on the portal for next software updates to make pressure arrow more sensitive. Hope its get better in near future.
