The recent firmware update to the Versa and Ionic trackers replaced Active Minutes with Active Zone minutes and going forward you will only be able to track Active Zone Minutes. There's not an option to go back to Active Minutes.

 

They work very differently and involve changes to the way heart rate zones are calculated. There are a couple of help files that may help getting used to them:

Nope! No Versa 3 in my future! I now have the excuse to get my Apple Watch. Did you even conduct any user research?

I do not like the change either. However the battery used to last 3 days in my watch. Now it's only 1.5 days if I am lucky. Very unhappy.

I agree, I want the active minutes back.  Keep the zone if you must, but give the option.  AND the zone minutes at 150 per week can't be based on the cardio or peak, because way too low.  If my active was set at 30 per day my zone needs to be 60 plus per day.  Active was based on 10 minute increments, zone based on all, no real reflection of exercise cardio/peak, which I thought was the objective.

Even if I accept AZM tracking, I do not appreciate that it suddenly changed the attributes. Before Jan 31, I could see AZM accumulation in the current week, which I set up to start on Mon for all my activities, AMZ included. On Jan 31, suddenly, just AMZ tracking switched from the current week to "last 7 days". Is there a way to fix this? Thanks.
