trainingpeaks ConnectIQ App - existing device support (or lack thereof)
The new ConnectIQ app (released today) does not support the 920XT/Fenix3 and most other devices of that generation.
Given that the 935 and the Fenix5 devices have only been released in the very recent past...that means that your "new" app supports only a very small percentage of the real Garmin / TP user community. I understand the desire/need to announce support for the 935 on launch day....
...but, NOT providing support for the actual current userbase at the same time is VERY LAME.

The app uses a few new features of the Connect IQ 2.2 SDK, which allows content to be downloaded, stored, and executed on the device. Unfortunately, the 920XT and Fenix 3 are both CIQ 1.x devices, so our app will not run on those devices.
Currently the supported devices are:
Edge 1000, 820, & 520
FR935
FR735XT – pending a firmware update
Fenix 5 – all variants
Fenix Chronos – pending a firmware update
If you have a Fenix 3 or 920XT you can still get workouts from TrainingPeaks on to your device. I agree that it is a lot of steps, but you could do this in batch once or twice a week to save some time.

Is there anyone asking Garmin to push the ConnectIQ 2.2 SDK back to the 920xt?
