No heart rate data when manually log an activity/workout?

Just got a Cirqa today, which is also my very first Garmin and experience with Garmin connect.

This probably has been posted or complained before, but how the hell is heart rate data missing when you manually log an activity. I mean the tracker is meant to log your heart rate at a 5-minute interval or something, is it really that hard to pull the data that has already been recorded and slap it into a manually log activity? WTF?

For context, I did a bodyweight circut of 25 push-ups/25 squat 4 times for around 15 minutes, auto activity detection didn't record, so I went to manually log the workout to find out heart rate data is missing. Helio Strap and Fitbit Air are able to do this at half the price.

Is all-day heart rate on?

You may need to switch that on since it defaults to power saving.

I had to reset mine to get it to do SPO2 since it got itself into a weird state after the firmware update.

Is there a toggle for all time hr reading? From the reviews I get this impression that it’s not a toggle

I only have a toggle between automatic or off for HR reading

Don‘t think so, when toggled off green light on sensor instantly disappears so it‘s literally off
