MsG Feb 2022 7:48pm, 1 Feb 2022 2,070 posts	0 MsG I think the virtual activities which "look" like real GPS are a problem too. When I first got the turbo trainer, I tried a few sites / apps and realised they were importing into fetch as if I'd really been there. I did report this and they got filtered out but it does mean any new platform doing virtual activities is going to cause the same issue.
PK Feb 2022 10:01pm, 1 Feb 2022 1,127 posts	0 PK Trying to claim The Ocho today, but can't seem to trigger it. Logged cross training at gym, along with treadmill and static bike ride. For these I've popped a small manual route to trigger the Conquersize zone points. I then went swimming, and managed to get some GPS signal, but no badge. Just in case it wanted a walk instead of cross train, I logged a short walk too. I can see all four on my Conquersize page, but no badge. Any help?
Hanneke Feb 2022 10:10pm, 1 Feb 2022 85,264 posts	0 Hanneke I generally use non GPS as I rarely take a computer with my. Only for long bike rides usually. This is because I don't train, so no need to keep track really But I do like a good Fetch game so please keep the manual option!

57.5 Days of Pain Feb 2022 8:15am, 2 Feb 2022 8,422 posts	0 57.5 Days of Pain I used to record my activities on the phone, so would manually add hard training and races/ parkruns. Santa brought a shiny new Garmin so only manually plot now when I forget to switch it on.
JRitchie Feb 2022 8:39pm, 2 Feb 2022 2,863 posts	0 JRitchie Pre- wearable tech I put in manually (sees such a faff in retrospect) I have drafted/ planned routes manually which I’ve found helpful. But that’s nothing to do with CS.

Forrest Jooligan Feb 2022 11:09pm, 2 Feb 2022 212 posts	0 Forrest Jooligan GPS for all but one activity - watch battery died. Manually added the route but it gave a date of 1900 or somesuch so zones showed up as expired. I’ve subsequently revisited them anyway as it was lawn expansion I was after.
