Hi, the app should connect to same sensors you use for selected activity type when recording activity by Locus Map for Garmin. I would suggest to make sure, you are opening the app and turning on the activity when you already have your HR sensor active. It should for sure work.

Hi Dominic,

our app can't import route to internal storage of Fenix 3, thus the message you are getting. Activating Premium version do not affect this at all. Are you sure you didn't confuse it with navigation features controlled by phone? You can just turn on navigation on your phone and be navigated with your Fenix.

Compatibility table is correct.

Yep !!!!

But unfortunately on my Garmin Vivoactive 4 the location in the map view is not changing when my android smartphone lost its signal ...

Hmm, that is strange. Unfortunately you have quite unique setup, so not sure if I will be able to find out why it does not work properly for you. 

Again  Locus Pro closed, Garmin app closed, but Garmin sync notification still present.

Info about closing and opening apps (+ course import) goes via Garmin messaging solution which is unfortunately highly unreliable. It might help to restart phone or watch to get it working again. Or you can of couse always shutdown Locus Map for Garmin service by clicking to STOP button on notification.

@mdmystko Hi, this unfortunately seems as some bug in Vivoactive3 firmware.  Does it happening all the time? Distance is freezed even on watch screen after resuming?

Hi, I would include cadence when enabling data screen customisations, thanks for your feedback.  App is not open-source.

Is there a plan for making the Garmin watch able to launch/pause/stop the track recording in the smartphone Locus Map app, in replacement (or complement) of the track recording in the watch itself (already available)...?

Yes! This is actually quite high on our priority list!

I do not like the start and stop feature on the watch because there is always the case that an unwanted button press stops the recording track. But the lap/point mark should be usefull.

Hi, doesn't your model support buttons lock feature? Start/stop feature is implemented to behave similar as native activity apps.
Create waypoint feature is also in consideration.

Hi, that is the limitation of Garmin Connect IQ platform. The map will never be as fast as on Android Wear.

Hi, Navigation screen is active when you run guidance via track, because some tracks have nav instructions usable even on this mode.

Hi, this is issue which I am aware that it might be happening for some users but wasn't able to simulate or find more details about it yet. Seems like just another Garmin connectivity issue which I am unable to handle in the app  . Please let me know if reinstall really solved this issue for you or it returned occasionally. Thanks!

Of course, the app uses sort-of continuous BT connection , so it might stress BT module little bit more. But it really just uses connection and do not control it. So I am afraid, I really can't do anything regarding its stability. But please let me know if it will be happening repeatedly.

Hi,

thanks for your report. So based on your description, something in your phone crashed during your activity resulting mallfunction of Bluetooth service. I am afraid I can't affect stability of Android OS, the app doesn't do any control of Bluetooth connectivity. You are first to report such issue.

Hi fera,

first for all, I am not author of apps on Wear OS and Tizen.  These were done by Locus team.  

Not sure if I will be able to squeeze cadence somewhere until I release version with customised datascreen, but lets leave it open now.

As for the sensors connected to the phone, we may apply similar customisation to even phone recording screen for the future, but there are some technical challenges here, so can't promise anything yet.
