      I created an activity for paragliding called “Hike & Fly”. I fully created and saved the custom mode. But when I tried to use this mode in a multi sports activity (after hiking), the watch crashed (all black, slightly vertically striped screen without any reactions) and I had to do a soft restart (pressed top button for 12 sec). The first activity was actually saved; so that’s really cool!!

      I wasn’t able to edit the custom mode, but I was able to delete it. This happened twice. I didn’t do any more tests, but I assume that the non alphanumeric character is the cause. Possibly others, too, like ["$§%&/?!äöüéèáà…].

        Makes me wonder what would happen if the activity is called:

        Surf'); DROP TABLE activities;--

              @simon I cannot reproduce on testing firmware. I created a custom sport mode “Hike & Fly” and it works.

                I can also modify the custom sport mode. Anything in particular you did? The ampersand is not the issue (at least with my app and firmware version).

                  Unable to reproduce either, using 2.19.42.

                    Hmm, I’ll let you know when I discover more.

                    What I did so far: I created this sport mode with said name. I believe, I did use it once or twice, but when I wanted to use it again some time later, I wasn’t able to select it. Menu > Training > “Hike & Fly” … and the watch just returned to the home screen displaying the time and date.

                    After that, I tried to edit the sport mode, but the app reported that there was an unexpected error and wouldn’t let me. So, I deleted this sport mode and created it from scratch. Yesterday, when I first selected it in a multi sport activity, the watch crashed.

                    So, I’m not entirely sure if I can reproduce it easily. For now, I’ve just created a new custom sport mode called “Paragliding”. If that works, the ampersand may have been the culprit … But it’ll take some time for me to properly try it. Not doing a Hike & Fly every day 😄

                      @simon okay I will test it with multisport also. Any particular field you were using? Did you update the firmware in between? Android or iOS?

                          Yes, I think, the firmware was updated since the custom more was created. Users fields were: speed, lap duration, distance, altitude, HR, altitude gain, vertical speed. I think, that’s all - on two screens.

                          Latest app version on Android.

                          Today, I had the chance to try multi sport with the custom mode without ampersand in the name, and it worked. Doesn’t necessarily mean the ampersand is related, of course.
