Is that the summary sections where if you scroll right you get an overview of the various sports you do? If so, unsure that is an issue as it is just grouping similar info in a section.
Aware I'm not really helping as the app seems to work very well for me and gives me quick and easy access to the info I want and a simple way to drill into more.
Reading the thread it seems it doesn't work so well for others though, which isn't good news.
The swiping left is the In Focus part, which appears at the top on mine. I haven't worked out how to get it to appear below At a glance, but I may end up turning it off all together as it's just slightly annoying and I'll try just using the at a glance as buttons to see the information I want. Maybe that will stop me with the left/right, up/down thing.
Previously I could get four bits of information and my eye would scroll down, and then scroll the page. Now, with "At a Glance", I have four bits of information, presented smaller in two columns, so my eye has to scan left and right and down, and it's harder to read for someone with aging eyesight. I fail to see how this is better.
Add in the confusion of it not being consistent with how to change things (edit home page is at the bottom of the homepage, but edit Tabs is at the top right on "More").
It still suffers the problem of the connect app, and that's it is difficult to find some of the meterics until you get really used to where they're hidden. Maybe even more so now you're having to search out things for your home page. I cannot say I'm that impressed with it. Still, I learn the quirks of the previous app and I'm sure I'll learn to use the quirks of this one.

Ah yes. I actually removed that bit. I've been using the Profile icon to get a list of my activities. Again, not the most intuitive but it's only two click (Icon... Profile)

Ah. Would that be trying to remember what's a Health stat and what's a Performance stat?
Is new Garmin playing funny with Strava? Tge activity has definitely synched which makes me think it's more on Strava's end, it shows on my dashboard but not in progress or history etc.
Well, I've given it a decent crack, but I still think the update is a bit arse.
Yeah, my gf and I were talking about some stat last night and she ended up directing me to it. Not good that things are hard to find in an app that is about providing information.
I suspect it depends on how much your pour over the data, but I still much prefer the app now to have it was before it changed. However, I don't do much pouring over - all my stats are so poor that the overview ones are good enough for me.
I did customise the stuff it was showing me at a glance though but that is all I really check.
I went through a little tweaking of the "home page" when the changes were introduced and I find it pretty much spot on. TBH I can't even rememeber what the previous version looked like or why there was such a fuss when the changes were made.
Since getting my pixel 8pro I have to keep reconnecting to my vivoactive.
Yesterday morning it was a reconnect, in the afternoon i had to re-pair it.
you probably need to stop connect getting shutdown by android in settings -> apps. android shuts stuff down that hasn't been looked at for a few hours.
