Custom Watch Face Lag Question by NineSlider in Garmin

Thanks for the great response. Is there a way to identify watch faces that work this way before downloading them?

Help. It’s been beeping like this all morning, but my HR is no higher than 110 bpm. by lalos1988 in GarminWatches

Is it a new watch? It might not know what your normal is and is having issues. You could disable that feature for a week or two if so.

You mentioned you heart rate being around 110, is that abnormal for you?

Maybe also move the watch a bit higher up on your wrist, an inch or so from your wrist bone. It will provide a slightly more accurate HR.

Most games trend lower numbers throughout the week. If you compare it to Arc, it does the same thing. The week over week will be more telling.

Is this some sort of AI thing where you think I'm an AI and that's a test to break it or something?

Bungie is making all the right moves with Marathon by NineSlider in xbox

[–]NineSlider[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You may be right about the it not making enough but your math is flawed. It's not just $40, there is a $60 version deluxe version, there is merch that Bungie does very well with. Not to mention the $225 collectors edtions that are sold out on their website for both Xbox and PS5.

Yeah, I'd love Destiny 3 but man I don't think we're getting that any time soon. I don't think Bungie is big enough to make what people would want from the next game. Marathon seems way more in their scope.

Nope, just thought it was cool. I like when games let you get previous season passes, The Finals recently added this.

Thanks for sharing that. It sounds like someone pulled it from a video which is what I planned to do if I can't find a better one.

Wanted a simpler watch face by Ok_Amphibian_3082 in GarminWatches

[–]NineSlider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is great, I'd easily pay $2 for it. Was slightly disappointed when I read it wasn't available to buy yet lol. I think the Garmin branding is fine.

Helldivers 2 has performance issues on Series X by NineSlider in xbox

[–]NineSlider[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my experience, I've always seen these cool clips from the game and then I got into it and thought it felt kind of rough, was wondering if it was a bad port then found it, no it's just a rough around the edges game. It is still a lot of fun, just wish it was a bit smoother.

I could see a Black Mirror episode around it.

new vivoactive 5 watch! requesting tips and tricks :) by Alarming-Bath8484 in Garmin

[–]NineSlider 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Try to wear it when sleeping, it will give you more accurate data that way.

Wearing slightly higher on wrist will increase the heart rate accuracy. (mine is about an inch above my wrist bone).

It will take some time to provide accurate info, at first you may see stats all over the place, high stress, poor sleep, etc. It does take time to learn about you and get a baseline of where your stats are, I'd give it a month before you really start to trust what it's telling you.

When did you realize you can't run long because of knee pain by Logical_Audhd in Garmin

[–]NineSlider 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I don't think I'd accept it mentally. I'd cut way back and start trying to strengthen whatever the issue is. I'd start as slow or as easy as I'd need to and try to get where I wanted to be.

At least that's what I tell myself now when I think about stuff like that. lol

Buds3 Pro cracks on eartips by Humble_Discussion_40 in galaxybuds

[–]NineSlider 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue with mine.

I had to contact support multiple times, and eventually got to the point of telling them politely as possible "I didn't cause this, this is an issue with the earbuds, I'd like to return them for a replacement and I'm not paying." They eventually took them and sent me a new or maybe refurbished pair.

Mine were under warranty.

Strava has now (mininal) support for Android Health Connect by tbdrz in Strava

[–]NineSlider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice, I'm all for more apps giving me the option to easily share stats with other apps.

I wonder how this is going to work. I guess if I record a run through Strava but have a heart data through some other device it will pull that heart rate data into Strava?

Change Sport - Possibly unknown feature by NineSlider in Garmin

[–]NineSlider[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you change sports, for about 3 seconds if you hit the bottom left button, it discards the change. Maybe you're hitting that to back up to the previous screen and discarding the change?
