If this is Garmin, I'm sadly not certain the difficulties are intentional. Their software has always been a major detraction from their really solid hardware. Connect IQ seems to be honestly trying to provide functionality, but ends up being a strange bastardization of Javascript and Java that compiles to Java bytecode. The experience was riddled with the same types of alpha-quality oversights and the target market started moving to Coros watches, but before I dropped the project all the watch crashes and firmware updates made much more sense.
