I just installed it so, the only thing that remains to be seen and it's going to determine if it stays on my watch is how much it drains the battery. I am always cautious when it says background access will drain battery faster. I will give it a fair try for a few months.
But right now, I think the design and information that provides are really nice.
Thank you for adding it to Garmin!
