The Coros January 2025 Feature Update is now delighting users with its latest rollout. Announced last month, this update brings a host of new features and enhancements aimed at improving user experience with activities and paired accessories. In addition, there are special optimizations for the Dura GPS bike computer, a device currently available at $249 on some online platforms.
This significant update introduces exciting changes to activity tracking. Users can now modify the type of activity associated with a workout even after it’s been saved in the Coros app, although there are some boundaries. For instance, activities like running, hiking, or walking can be retroactively altered to different forms such as Run, Track Run, Trail Run, Mountain Climb, Hike, or Walk. Likewise, cyclists enjoy similar flexibility, though Fitness Tests remain unchangeable. There’s more – additional data metrics like power-to-weight ratio have been added, and activities deleted in the past 30 days can now be recovered, adding a safety net to your workout history.
Another prominent feature in this update is the ability to store Turn-by-Turn alerts as a data field within an activity, helping users navigate their routes more easily. Connections with paired accessories have been optimized for multiple smartwatch models and the Dura, now allowing customization of accessory names and providing notifications for low battery levels.
The update also brings exclusive updates to the Dura GPS bike computer. A refreshed homepage now showcases the time, date, and temperature, along with a variety of new data fields to enrich the user experience.
For those eager to dive deep into these improvements, the comprehensive release notes are available on the company’s support pages. The good news is that the update should automatically install on your Coros smartwatch or Dura, assuming you have automatic updates enabled in the Coros app. With these new enhancements, Coros is setting the stage for an even more intuitive and enjoyable user interaction.
