I use Fenix 6S to record my outdoor rowing. Sometimes it shows up in training log as a row but most times just as 'workout'. I can't figure out why it does this as I follow exact same steps each time.
Screenshot example shows 28Jul 17k row in Blue but 29Jul is also a row but showing small grey dot and no distance. This happens most of the time and there are plenty more examples. (11, 12 and 13 Jul are all rows).
This makes the training log useless for me.
+29Hi
Just to clarify, are the activities themselves recorded (and displaying in your list of activities) as rowing or as generic workouts? In other words - is only the training log incorrect, or also the activities?
Also, it might help if you add links to two sample activities - one that's ok and one that's problematic - so we can compare.
Thanks!
Both activities were recorded and show as Rowing. It’s just the training log that is incorrectly showing as ‘Workout’.
I think I have identified the cause now though….
This bug was introduced around the same time as ‘Quick Edit’ late last year. If an activity is saved using QE then it displays incorrectly. In the training log. QE also changes what information is displayed for the activity which is less useful than the normal summary (QE removes the ‘Pace’ stats’).. I use an Android phone.
Examples here from last week, on consecutive days. You can see the summary data is different and the training log incorrect,

+26Hey
Thank you for providing these examples
I’ll relay this to my team to investigate further.
Thank you so much for your patience & cooperation.
+26Hey
I can confirm our team is aware of this issue and currently working on a fix.
I’ll return to this thread with an update once I receive more information.
Things have changed…So now I am seeing that my workaround to ignore quick edit doesn’t save my row now. If I save through quick edit it now seems to save it as a row BUT if I edit the activity to change the text it changes it back to ‘workout’.
What is going on Strava, this is taking so long to fix and yet seems so simple. I first logged this in January and it has likely been a bug since November 24. Example below.

Just adding a link to today’s row, showing that it displays as a row correctly now if you save as Quick Edit and don’t do any edits to the title or description. You can also see that the summary data shows the pace/500m that we all want. This disappears when it switches to ‘workout’ (after any edits).

I hope this helps to narrow down the cause of the bug.
