I'm probably a bit late with this, but I just noticed today when looking for support for my TomTom Runner 3, that TomTom have left the sports market. The app remains up, but don't expect any development, and I guess both it and the watches will become obsolete eventually. I might order a spare strap while they still have them. It's a shame, as I like mine, and they are relatively good value and well made.

Looks like I need to get a new watch. "As a user of our Sports products, we would like to inform you about an important update regarding our TomTom Sports infrastructure and support. As you may know, TomTom already announced in 2017 to discontinue its Consumer Sports business to refocus on its leading position in mapping and navigation technologies. Even though we did not develop new sports wearables in the last years, we continued to support our products and customers as we had a strong community that still loved and actively used our sports products. However, over the past years, we have seen the usage decrease significantly, which has led to the difficult decision to end our support on the TomTom Sports infrastructure by the end of September 2023. What will happen? The TomTom Sports mobile app, Sports website, and Sports Connect desktop application will be discontinued and permanently removed. You may be able to still use your TomTom Sports watch, Golf watch or Activity tracker and see your activity statistics on your device itself, but you will no longer get updates or will not be able to sync your activities to the TomTom Sports platforms and applications." |

There probably are, Dio. I'm not one of them though. Garmin for me.

My TomTom stopped working and had a dignified burial into the bin. I'm a Garmin man now |

I feel like the only kid in the playground with a Betamax video recorder.
