    The Tacx Island Hopping Challenge hasn't been published yet. Maybe it will appear in December.

      None of the badges I post about in the monthly post are usually available yet. This is just some information you will get about what is coming in a close future.

    I think the answer to this is no - but does anyone know how to add a few hundred steps to yesterday? I was on a 452 day streak and fell asleep on 9,300 steps. When living in NZ I could change time zone, but now I live in the Cook Islands there is no later time zone any more!

      If I remember correctly, this procedure was working. I did not test myself. I think change date on phone, then walk missing steps, synchronize garmin was working.

      You can't. Just dont change zones before you don't complete your daily steps. It is mess after changing.

      Changing the time zone on the phone works but unfortunalty, it's too short for the Cook Islands 😟

      Solved! I had this problem a few months ago (in UK) fell asleep before midnight at around 9970 steps. I changed (on watch settings) to previous day - did enough steps to cover 10 000 + , then changed time back to correct day. It worked!

      I have two watches and one of them (Captain America) allows me to set the date manually (and I set time source for “manual” as well). As long as I don’t connect to GPS, the steps will be added to the watch date. (Actually - the steps of two dates will be added together…)

    Last year you got an extra badge if you did the 4 quarterly running badges. I missed one and so this year made a special effort to get them all and its not there 😭😂

      I have the same situation (I bought the watch in March), maybe they will fix it somehow...

Dance Fitness has arrived

Image
Five new badges are here. Garmin accidentally added them in September but they were quickly removed. In September there were 13 badges so we will probably soon see even more badges added. Garmin has added a new activity type "Dance Fitness" in the Gym & Fitness Equipment category so you can switch to that for all your dance fitness activities. I don't see the new type in Garmin Connect app on Android so it will need to come in an update. In the web it is already there. To add songs for the Mixtape badge you press the lap button. Each lap will add another song. Until we get Dance Fitness on the watches you can log with Cardio and press lap for each song. After save and sync you switch activity type in Garmin Connect to Dance Fitness. Garmin Badge Database Garmin Connect Change country setting
