Custom workout not appearing on sub sport categories (v16.17)

A viable workaround is using the „Training“ sport categorie (all custom trainings show up there) and from there selecting the desired sport categorie. Drawback: You have to use the same datafields and layout for all sport categories.

I tried this on my 955 with the "Workouts" app (my watch's language is English), and I don't see the same drawback you're seeing. In the app, I can select any workout I want (as you said.) Then the app gives me option of selecting any profile associated with the workout's main sport - e.g. if I pick a Run workout, then I can select any profile related to running (e.g. Run, Track Run, Treadmill, etc.) When I pick a profile, I get the datafields and layouts associated with that profile. (Each of my run profiles has different datafields/layouts and settings.)

You are completly right regarding the workaround. My „Workouts“ app behaves exactly as you describe. I was wrong (don‘t know why).

But what would be interesting if the beforehand problem „Custom workout not appearing on sub sport categories“ occurs on your 965 too?

Yes, it also happens on my 955. I'm guessing everyone on the "unified' firmware for 955/965/Fenix 7/Epix gen 2/whatever is seeing the same problem. Or at least it's happening for both 955 and 965, anyway.

Ah! I just posted a similar question... I assumed it was a Forerunner 965 thing (I just moved from a Fenix) and not a firmware thing. Firmware makes more sense - I thought I was going crazy.
