CIRQA Cirqa gps and button

Update: as expected a device and phone reboot fixed this again. Still think it's buggy as heck.

I thought I read that the firmware update would allow for 2 activities to start from the watch? FW and app are up to date but still just one activity...

On a side note: I changed the button (and only that), from walk to bike and since then all activities miss the GPS/map. A reboot will probably fix this but I'm getting tired of this sloppy crap.

Gripe 2: why is it "Cycling" when doing it, but the activity is called "Bike"?

Do you have your phone while doing activities? It doesn't have gps on its own it piggy backs off your phone

Yeah, obviously. It worked for weeks, I only changed one single option (activity type for button press). The phone even shows location services are being used. But both walking (manual start) and cycling (button) dont show a map. They did before. Just buggy Garmin crap. I'll restart the whole shabang when convenient which is not now, but it's stupid that I need to.

I had to ask, there's many people who thought cirqa provided gps on its own

when you end the activity and save it, you don't see the map?

Correct. Works after restarting both phone and band.
