The main gesture is to click on the right button in order to enable the functions. I think they’ve done a better job at the data pages than on the Nike+ SportsWatch. The TomTom Runner interface is simple & effective. TomTom Runner easy to read data screen during a run. Satellite fix suddenly took the same amount of time as my Garmin Forerunner 610 & Fenix which are the devices I’ve been comparing the TomTom Runner against. It became very noticeable when this data is out of date. This allows the device to get ready for your activity within 15-20 seconds. This pre-loads the satellites position for the next seven days. The last benefit of setting up the software and the initial sync is to download the QuickGPS data. For example, to view your Heart Rate data on MapMyRun, you’ll need the MVP subscription. It offers more basic information than MapMyRun. TomTomMySports website isn’t a bad option for beginners. This problem was resolved by using another browser like Firefox. I ran into difficulties setting up TomTom MySports website since it is powered by MapMyRun and trying to link the accounts using Google Chrome wasn’t working. If you are using a Heart Rate strap and want to upload to another site like Garmin Connect, TCX is format that preserves the HR data. File formats include: KML, GPX, FIT, TCX. In terms of social sites, you have the choice of TomTom MySports, MapMyRun and Runkeeper. Setting up the file formats & sharing should also be done before you sync any activities. Firmware updates are delivered this way, so setting up the software and doing the initial sync is an important step. In order to upload saved activities from your TomTom Runner to your computer, you will need to install the TomTom MySports app (for Windows and Mac) first, then plug in the device. I started using the device with an older firmware version (1.0.1) but once the latest firmware was delivered (1.5.1) it added a number of improvements and additional functions to make it a more complete running watch. After 3 weeks of evening running with the backlight always on and vibration alerts, I’d say that the estimate is fairly accurate. Based on the schedule of a typical 5k runner, expect almost a month of usage. The sparse manual says that you should be able to squeeze out 10 hours of activities between charges. I used the Bluetooth HR strap from Polar to pair with the watch and it both devices were able to pair with no problem. Bluetooth is used for the Heart Rate sensor. I opted for outdoor running while testing the watch. The watch does include a sensor for indoor running. During a cold & dark December run schedule, the display lights up well to view the data fields. The device is water resistant up to 50ft and after a few activities in rain/snow I didn’t encounter any problems using the buttons when starting or pausing the activities. The backlight is activated by tapping the right side of the watch body. I found this easy to snap on, but not as easy to detach. Wearing the watch is comfortable and is probably the one that looks the best as a all-day watch. The supplied USB data/charging cable is curved to match the watch body. The buttons are found at the edge of the GPS antenna instead of the watch body.
