Imports:
Cronometer imports the following items from Garmin:
- Weight
- Body Fat percentage
- Sleep
- Exercise
- General Activity (Called 'daily activity' in Cronometer)
- Heart Rate
- Blood Pressure
- HRV
- SpO2
- Respiration Rate
Timeseries Data:
Import full data for the day instead of a single entry per day. When importing the full data, click on the diary entry to see a chart for your day
You must toggle on full time series in your Garmin device settings in order to see this.
- Heartrate
Backfill:
You can backfill up to two years of Garmin data in your Cronometer diary.
Once you have linked your Garmin to Cronometer, you can only backfill the same dates once. Select a date in the past and Cronometer will backfill between this date and today. When selecting a further date in the past, Cronometer will request a backfill from this new date to the existing backfill date.
If you need to backfill the same dates again, please disconnect and reconnect your Garmin account from Cronometer
Troubleshooting
Connection issues
If you are experiencing issues importing data from Garmin into your Cronometer account, please first ensure your device is importing data to your Garmin app. Then refresh your Cronometer diary (pull down to refresh if you are using the mobile app)
If you are still having trouble importing data, please try reconnecting your Garmin app to Cronometer.
1. Log into Garmin Connect
2. Go to Settings > Account Information > Connected Apps
3. Disconnect Cronometer
4. Reconnect to Cronometer. Go to Cronometer > Settings > Devices > Garmin > Connect
General Activity and Exercise:
Cronometer imports Active kcal (as shown in your calorie details) and individual exercise kcal values from Garmin. Active kcal will not be shown in your Cronometer Diary. In Cronometer, Daily Activity and Exercise will be displayed - The difference between the two makes up the Imported Activity value.
Daily Activity (imported from Garmin) = Active kcal - a total of individual exercise kcal values
.
For example: 1316kcal (Active Kcal) - 176kcal (exercise) = 1140 kcal (Imported Activity)
