Great Data field. I can see and compare my perceived exertion and that is very interesting for me. There is only one question: What does for example a MEP of 82 mean ???

If I could would give no stars! Downloaded and it doesn't even appear as an app on my Garmin, so can't use it. Info on here says it doesn't connect to MyZone either, so nothing you do will get recorded within that account - so what's the point. I truly don't know what this app is supposed to do- you can't see the tiles/info on them, and nothing connects to the MyZone account!! Am uninstalling!

Hi Janet, sorry to hear you’ve had an issue with the MyZone Data field. The main point to note is that this is a data field and not a stand alone application - as such you would need to add the field to any activities you would like to use it with. For example, I’ve added it to my running activity as this is the most common time I would be using the MyZone belt and not have my phone with me. This leads on to the second issue which Is what the data field is for is it doesn’t save data to the MyZone app - it’s meant as a visual count of the total MEPS earned in the current session. This is super handy if you don’t have your phone with you during the activity so you can track where your at (I’m often setting MEPS targets for workouts) this is possible as the MyZone strap works independently from your phone. This count is also saved with the activity when uploaded to garmin when you’ve finished so you can easily cross reference. I’ve even got non MyZone friends who use the data field to compare with those with them. Hopefully that helps :)

So good. It took me a while to figure out how to install it but then I am a luddite. Works really well. Love being able to see my MEPs when out running. Just make sure to set your own heart rate zones and you're good to go. Highly recommended. (Garmin Vivoactive 3)

Having this data field on my Garmin is so much safer than getting my phone out when I'm running or cycling. I always want to check my MEPs but was worried about dropping my mobile so having it on my watch is so much easier! Download now!

This Myzone data field for Garmin is proof that the iConnect community works perfectly to solve genuine user problems - its easy to download and install and works perfectly on my Fenix 6s. I can see my cumulative MEP count during my activity. Highly recommended !!
