Hi folks
Went out for a run this morning and noticed that my Strava AW app had updated.
Because it has updated to use the GPS in series 2 it seems to now be utterly useless for my original series AW - it no longer links to the app on my my phone (so no verbal notifications when running with headphones), it doesn't auto pause (presumably because no GPS in my watch - very important to me as I run with my dog), and I'm guessing as there's no GPS in my watch the distance will be hopelessly inaccurate.
I stopped and re-started my run from my phone, but that had no effect on the app on the watch, so I ended up running without any info on my watch at all.
Seems to me that this renders the Strava app on AW useless for me (and probably anyone who doesn't own a series 2). Are the other main running apps the same?
The only thing I can think of is from now on to have Strava running on my phone and the Apple activity app running on my watch. Any other ideas?
