I keep my old Garmin Forerunner 235 for this one reason. I paddle 5ks every week and the inability to set a custom workout with gps and have audio prompts at set distance intervals. In addition to have the ability to have the water lock apply similar to other aquatic presets. 

Before someone goes and responds just setup a custom exercise, you cannot do audio prompts at distance intervals there. Garmin and Strava have figured this out time for Samsung Health to if they want to be a solid competitor. Just open up the options to really create the customization in a personal workout. We don't need a new excersise created for everything, just open up the options for people to create their own, weather it is mainstream or niche. You don't have to worry about it if you just let people access the sensors that the watch already has to customize their workout along with the data they need to meet their goals. 

Sadly until that happens I will have to bring out my trusty 10 year old Garmin Forerunner 235 every week for the kayaking 5Ks. BTW Garmin has had this option that customization for at least a decade.
