Expectations
Know what sync does and does not do
Activity sync uses the original files already saved with your activities and requires both provider connections to be active.
Automatic sync handles newly imported Garmin activities. Use Sync past activities for workouts that are already in Quantified Self.
If Garmin or Suunto revokes access, reconnect the provider and turn automatic activity sync back on.
Automatic service connections and cross-service sync require Pro. Manual uploads remain available on the free plan.
