Add seconds to run/laps times in app

[AndyH357]

I'm fairly sure it never used to be an issue, but I can no longer see my run times to the exact time in my Android app. I can see the splits to the second, but the overall run time is rounded to the nearest minute, which is obviously not useful.

I've searched the app for exact run times, but can't find it. Seems odd to no longer be a feature. I'm using the Surge and GPS to track my exercise.

Hi, since a new update my app is showing rounded up or down time for my runs in minutes (no seconds displayed) . It does not show my run time in minutes and seconds. The app needs to be changed to accurately show the time taken to complete run in minutes and seconds. I have brought this issue up with an agent and they told me to post here

New Versa 2 user. Exercises are rounded to the nearest minute in the app, which is not very useful. I can see the individual split pace for each km completed, so it doesn't seem like this would be much to ask for. I can also see in the community where seconds were previously included. Requested format for completed exercise = hh:mm:ss.

When I go for a run the number of seconds is not recorded on the app. This should be recorded. This makes it difficult to track progress unless I make a massive leap in pace from one run to the next. I'm confused why this feature isn't currently planned.I imagine it would be very simple to do, as the duration with seconds is recorded by the watch.

In the Mobile App provide the seconds on duration of a run. Even adding a total duration on the laps screen would be helpful.
