Happy customer but got one suggestion
I am a happy customer of your apple watch app but thought I would send you one suggestion. There have been a couple of occasions where either my Garmin radar went out of battery in the middle of the ride, or I moved out of Bluetooth range (such as to go to a restroom during a ride), or, for some mysterious reason, the connection was lost to my watch. The problem is that when this happens, the recording of the ride stops, and Apple workout picks up, which messes up what gets uploaded to Strava. Is it possible to keep recording the ride even though the Garmin radar has lost connection for one reason or another? Update - Roberto replied to me and pointed out there is an "auto stop" setting on the watch that can be used to control the behavior, which addressed my issue.

Perfect solution to the Garmin Varia
I didn’t like having to clamp a phone to my handlebars to use the app for my Garmin Varia. This Apple watch app solves that problem perfectly. It vibrates your Apple watch when new cars come up behind you. I prefer to use the nice and loud beeping option. It beeps when new cars come up, then plays a different sound when its all clear. I never have to fiddle with it, I just turn on my Varia, open the Aradar app and go. Lots of great new features keep getting added as well. Highly recommended!
