AndyS Oct 2022 3:18pm, 6 Oct 2022 1,569 posts	AndyS Just spent well over an hour on chat with Garmin support trying to resolve the random widget reordering issue on my Fenix. No closer to a resolution, but now incredibly frustrated.

geordiegirl Oct 2022 1:05pm, 8 Oct 2022 18,886 posts	geordiegirl The one day I’d like garmin to be swift sending data (Dr K Cup) and nothing .. nada.. zip. Garmin connect has the data but it’s not making it to fetch - any ideas what I can try? Or is anyone else having issues?
