      they should mention it on the box

      and offer early adapter discount…

          Settings > General > Power Savings
          “ON” -> mapping might not work? (need to test this further)
          “OFF” -> mapping worked.

              So what’s the bug? Mapping should work with Power Savings ON or OFF?

              Is there another way to get my watch to stop flashing Green (I assume this is the HR monitor) without turning Power Saving off?

                @nelslynn just don’t turn on power saving or do test if power saving does not record GPS. IF you want to test go ahead but for normal runs dont turn power saving on. I need to check this when home. Perhaps someone else can already.

                  BUT, if I turn power savings OFF, there is this annoying green flashing light as my watch sits on my bed stand and the whole room lights up (sorry can’t sleep with that). Do I really need to remember to turn Power Savings off every time I go for a ride? If so, this watch is not going to work for me. It’s really too bad that such a beautiful watch has so many shortcomings with the software. Sooo bummed.

                  The backlight is another issue, but I’m still researching how to deal with that.

                    Are you using 24/7 monitoring ?
                    Because if you’re not you can disable it and the “green light” will be turned off

                        By following your logic, you can only turn on power saving while sleeping right?
                        Do you need record distance while sleeping?

                          @nelslynn Hi I did not say that this is the rule. I kinda asked if that can be the case for the missing track. I am looking into this issue further.
