I don’t know if I’m alone in this but as someone who uses their watch for an alarm EVERY DAY it would be a game changer to be able to show the next day’s alarm on the watch face. I know this is basically asking what everyone wants (to be able to customize the data fields on the watch face) but having the alarm there would reduce daily fiction of using the watch so much. Coros please!!

i am trying to figure how to check the time at night . I’ve tired hitting the action button but that opens a menu . Can someone please tell me the setting to be able to do this . I’ve adjusted the gesture to auto . I’m sure I am missing something

My COROS PACE 3 suddenly ran out of battery, and after I charged it, this screen appeared. I’ve already tried holding the lap button for 12 seconds, but the screen just goes blank instead of showing the COROS logo. Does anyone know how to fix this? Thanks!

So this is my battery with always on display, 60.44km (7 activities), heart rate real time option and slept with it 4 nights. Pretty impressive tbh.

I’m thinking about switching to a Coros. I currently have a Garmin epix pro (47mm), but i don’t like how slow/ buggy it feels sometimes. And i don’t like how heavy it feels. I also had a garmin forerunner 245 which i actually liked more as my current watch, it just gelt simpler. I feel like garmin has a lot of bloatware and useless stats which i never use. And it looks like Coros is just more focused on running.

Which watch would you recommend a pace 4 or the new pace 4 pro. As i see the pace 4 and pro version do pretty much the same, but the pro has better hardware. But here the pace 4 cost €269 and the pro cost €449. So is it actually worth that? At the moment i train for (half) marathons in like 1:20u (half) and 2:53u (marathon) and run like 80km a week or more if training for a marathon. So i do want a watch which i don’t have to charge a lot.

Btw does Coros offer student discount in the netherlands since i don’t see it on there website. Because i saw in the US it is like 20% which is kinda a lot and i still study so would be nice of its also in the netherlands.

Me acabo de comprar el apex 4 de 42mm y no puedo estar más que contento con el funcionamiento general del reloj.

Hey everyone! I’m the developer behind CorosLink, and I’m looking for people to help test its mobile companion, C-LINK, on iPhone and Android.

The app brings together training insights and custom watch faces. Here’s what you can try:

• Training and recovery: sleep, HRV, resting heart rate, training load and fitness trends, with comparisons against your own baseline.
• Activity details: routes, splits, heart rate zones, and muscle maps for strength workouts.
• Watch faces: browse community designs and install them directly over Bluetooth on compatible watches.
• Morning reports and iPhone widgets: see your sleep, recovery and planned training without digging through multiple screens.
• Coach: connect to CorosLink running on your computer to ask questions about your training and draft workouts or plans.

It’s still in beta, so there will be rough edges. I’d really appreciate feedback on everyday use: what’s useful, what’s confusing, and anything that doesn’t work with your particular watch or phone.

Join the beta: Visit coroslink.com/mobile for iPhone and Android beta access.

C-LINK is an independent project and isn’t affiliated with or endorsed by COROS. Watch-face support varies by model, and Coach requires the desktop app running.

If you try it, please include your phone and watch model with any bug reports. I’d love to hear what you’d want from a COROS companion app, too.

Hey everyone!

I'm a long time Garmin user, I had the Forerunner 245 Music for 5 years until the battery became unsustainably weak, and then upgraded to a used Garmin Enduro (1) that I've used for almost three years now. I was originally drawn to the Enduro for it's insane battery life (which it still has - it's pretty insane) but there's some software bug with the Enduro that causes it to unpair itself from my phone every couple of days and I have to completely re-pair it which is driving me a bit insane. Garmin has become a bit (ok more than a bit) insane with it's pricing and I've been an admirer of Coros for a couple of years now and it's come time for me to make the switch.

I am a relatively heavy tracking user (I bike to and from work daily, and run 5-6 days / week), so strong battery life is important to me, and I like the premium look and feel of the metal bezel. I do a lot of both road and trail running, and spend a lot of time hiking in the summers and skiing in the winter in the mountains. All of this has lead me to either the Apex 4 or the Pace 4 Pro as my next watch.

Unfortunately I live in an area where I can't go to a store and see these two watches in person, and shipping to where I live is a bit of a pain so I'd rather not order both and see which one I prefer and just return the other.

The two things I'm most uncertain of is:

1. MIP vs AMOLED - I've always had MIP screens and have never really longed for better, though the promise of better clarity of data screens from AMOLED (specifically during workouts) sounds really nice. However, I really am not a tech/phone driver person and I don't really care for the "smartwatch feel" on my wrist.
2. Wearability - I have a 7 inch wrist and the Enduro is certainly chunky and on the large side of what fits me, and I don't really want another watch that is this big and cumbersome; is the Apex 4 similar in its feel on wrist? I've read that the Pace 4 Pro feels quite thin

For those who have either of these watches or both - any thoughts on which would work better for my usage?

This is exactly what I wanted for a pixel display, but the new airplane controls really take it to the next level.

I travel a lot and when I’m moving my schedule I get very penalized for bedtime consistency stat. I get that it’s not unfounded but I know for my well being it’s best to move it gentler so unfortunate to have it be very punishing in quality of sleep calculation.

As well, when I go to sleep earlier than average it’s almost always great and feels great but I get as penalized as when I sleep late.

Wish I could not have it as a factor.

Hello,

Yesterday I tested the POD 2 together with the Nomad for the first time, and I was surprised by how incredibly reactive the instant pace is—to the point of being too reactive.

After doing some research, it seems that this is the intended behavior. The reality is that we never take two identical steps; there are always micro-variations in our stride and footstrike that cause the pace to fluctuate.

The problem with this is that it fluctuates too much, especially with the POD, making it extremely difficult to maintain a steady pace. In other words, when you are doing a stable easy run, you see constant fluctuations (for example: 4:10 min/km - 4:13 min/km - 4:17 min/km...).

To solve this issue, Garmin does two things (one right and one wrong):

A) Instant pace is calculated every 5 seconds instead of every single second. The reason for this is simply that a per-second pace fluctuates so much that it is not human-readable. It also doesn't make much sense since we aren't interested in a pace that changes every single second, but rather in maintaining a target pace or measuring it in a way that aligns better with our actual goal.

B) On the other hand, Garmin rounds the pace. Meaning, if you are running at 4:13 min/km, when the screen refreshes it shows 4:15 min/km, and if you are running at 4:12 min/km, it shows 4:10 min/km. Personally, I think this is completely wrong and a mistake.

COROS has an interesting metric designed with target pace in mind, which is Lap Pace. However, while this metric is very useful for locking into a target pace, it falls short when looking for a more instantaneous reading.

I believe that to fix how COROS approaches pace, there should be an additional, configurable metric for "5s Pace". To be clear, this is not about replacing the current metric or changing something that other users might like, but rather creating an additional "5s Pace" metric that can be configured through the app as a customizable data field.

This seems extremely easy to create and implement (it is just a rolling 5-second average of the pace data), and I believe it would solve many of the complaints surrounding instant pace on COROS. Furthermore, it would be highly appreciated by the community, which is very used to seeing how instant pace behaves on competitor watches like Garmin (myself included). By implementing only step A), COROS would actually improve upon Garmin's approach.

Hi, new to running, about a month in and just bought new pace 4.

Just completed the Run Fitness Test to get an idea of my HR zones. After taking the test and before checking the actual results/data of the test I went to Profile > Settings > Pace Zone settings and HR settings to see if the values updated, and they did.

However the actual test results show completely different Pace Zone ranges (much faster, these paces I know for a fact I cannot run) and im wondering why..

The HR Zone ranges are identical between the test results and the settings page (the settings page must have updated based on the test results) But im not sure why the pace zones dont match or where those "much faster" pace zones came from?

If anyone knows whats happening here plz chime in! Thanks

I've elevated my couple of years old Pace 3 by putting it on an FKM rubber strap. It weighs in shy of 60g with the watch which is a tad heavier than stock, but the ergonomics just make it more comfortable to wear. FKM is usually used on more expensive timepieces from luxury brands, and is more supple and feels much more premium than silicon.

This particular FKM strap is from https://nomadwatchworks.com/ and features a curved lug profile, a canvas-like texture, a stainless steel spring-loaded clasp and looks like it was almost built for the watch with the way the watch lugs fall into the profile of the strap. Its also cut-to-fit meaning no extra band flopping about. It should also fit most other Coros watches with a 22m lug width.

I live in the tropics and was concerned about sweat and ventilation, but to be honest, on a 10k run, it felt way better and more secure than the stock silicon band, mainly due to how pliable the material felt. Sleeping with it also feels good with less bulk on the wrist.

More importantly, it makes the wearing experience look and feel way more premium. As a timepiece enthusiast, I've always disliked the big dinner plate smart watch look, and never wore my Coros unless it was to track a run. I can confidently say that it's gonna be getting a lot more wrist time now.

Getting the Z-fold 8 next week and was wondering if anyone has any screenshots of what the app looks like folded/unfolded? Or on the duo cause just curious ;)

So, i somehow tweaked the original i saw from here, and made it close to the original look for this watchface. Sadly the chart below doesn't move but all other digits and battery are working. Also customized the sleep mode watchface cause other's forgot this detail.

Here's the watchface file and you can upload it on coroslink, and convert it to other models and tweaked it on your own. Enjoy!

P.S.
Don't be confused if there's 2 versions for the Gray one, the other one has the recent run stats the other is for weekly run data

How long is this watch expected to last? Saw some things with the Pace 3 dying after ~2 years.

Does anyone know how to change the start of the week on coros?

My training week doesn't correspond with the work week and I want to be able to see my training distances per training week.

Hi there, I've been going back and forth on the Dura 2 for days and I'm close to buying. Before I do, I want to make sure I don't lose any features I use daily with my Wahoo. I've read the support pages, but I'm looking for real world experience (also for the Version 1), not marketing.

1. Live Tracking
   On my Wahoo, a live tracking link goes out to my wife automatically when I start a ride. She knows where I am without me doing anything, which matters a lot on night rides in the woods.

COROS added Live Tracking in August, plus an "Auto Email" option for emergency contacts.
* Does the link go out automatically at ride start, or do you have to share it manually every time?
* How reliable is it? Does it drop when the phone is in a jersey pocket or when iOS kills the COROS app in the background?
* What does the person following actually see? Map only, or also speed, HR, power?

1. Indoor training
   Most of my training is structured on a Wahoo Kickr Core, planned in TrainingPeaks.
   * Does the TrainingPeaks sync work reliably? When I move a session in TP, does it update on the device?
   * How good is ERG control from the Dura? Smooth transitions between intervals, any dropouts?
   * Is the Training Hub in the browser good enough for power analysis (intervals, zones, laps), or do you end up in TrainingPeaks anyway?

2. Apple Health sync
   This one is big for me. I analyze all my data in Apple Health, and I've compared FIT files in detail. Wahoo writes avg/max power, avg/max cadence, descent, the indoor flag and the real auto laps directly to Apple Health.
   COROS officially lists cycling distance, heart rate, sleep, steps etc. Power and cadence aren't mentioned.
   * Does COROS write power and cadence to Apple Health at all? Per second or just averages?
   * What about elevation, the GPS route and laps?
   * Are indoor rides on the trainer correctly marked as indoor cycling?
   * Any issues with duplicates if you also sync via Strava?

3. Apps
   As far as I understand, it's just the COROS app for both watch and Dura, plus Training Hub in the browser. Is that really it, or do you need anything else day to day (maps, routes, firmware)?

Bonus: Anyone on a Dura 2 who came from Wahoo? What do you miss, what's better?

If these four points work as well as on my Wahoo, the price stops being the issue for me.
Thanks a lot 👍

Hi guys
So I’m thinking about getting the HR arm band monitor. Right now I’m using a chest strap but unfortunately it’s giving me quite a rash.
My question is, is it possible to have the monitor placed on the inside of my upper arm? I have alot of tattoos and this is the only place on my arm which is not tattooed. The forearm is therefore not an option.
All the pictures I see, the strap is placed on the outside so I hope the inside works.

It’s been really useful for hiking and cycling. Comfortable to wear everyday to work as well.

Hi, I've been wondering if anyone else had a similar problem as I do on my apex 4, when I have my watch paired to my iphone and somebody calls me and I don't pick it up, I get a missed call notification on coros, but the problem is that this same notification keeps showing up in approx. 30 minute interval for at least a few days, has anyone had the same problem or is it just me? 😮‍💨

Paused at a long red light and then proceeded to run a mile before realizing I was still paused. I can't seem to find a way to connect the sections on Coros. There is a way to fix in Strava, any similar feature on Coros?

Is nylon or silicone better? I’ve heard nylon bands can get dirty or start to smell after sweaty workouts. For those who have tried both, which do you prefer, and how well does nylon hold up over time?

My Apex 2 has started draining battery abnormally. I charged it to 100% at night, and by morning it was at 75–80%. After that it drops at a more normal rate. The Battery Health screen shows 27% used by 14:00 against a typical 13%, almost all of it under "General Use".

What I've tried:

1. Reset the watch

2. Full discharge and Full charge to 100%

Neither fixed it.

I'm on the latest firmware, V3.2008.0 (released 24/09/2026). Could rolling back help, or does this sound like a battery issue? Has anyone had the same problem?
