BUG: back key stops working when in activity settings

Hi all,

I have been experiencing the following bug with FW 19.18, but can't tell if it was present in earlier FWs: when selecting breathwork activity, then activity settings and then breathing technique - change technique, the back key of the watch stops working. I can start and end a breathwork activity and only this way get back to the activities menu to pick another one, but there is no way to exit the activities menu. Only solution: reboot. The bug has been 100% reproducible for me so far.

Would be great if someone could try to reproduce it and Garmin-Sierra please report this upstream.

Thanks,

I'm not sure I understood your explanation, but I just selected breathwork, entered activity settings and got out with back key without problems. Tried the same after starting the activity, no problems. So either I misunderstood something or something is different between our 965s or their settings.

You're right - my explanation was missing the important step - try to go to the breathing technique - change technique submenu and see what happens then, please.

Sorry, I've now entered the change technique menu several times, both by entering the menu from activity startup screen and the select activity menu. Every time I could use the back key to return without problems.

Haha yes you're right, thanks! Then at least for me it seems to be limited to the following scenario: launch activities menu, scroll to breathwork activity, don't start but long-tap on breathwork activity to get the breathwork options menu, select breathing technique, then select change technique. Now from here I'm trapped in a loop and can't get back anymore. Sorry for being so unprecise.

Ok, now I could repeat your sequence and see the problem. I could still get out by long-pressing back (which I've set as hotkey for returning to watch face).

I suggest you report it to Garmin support directly and don't rely on anyone picking it up from here.
