New HomePort version 2.2 says I can save to the Garmin Cloud...

But I don't see an option for that, and its not an item under "help" that comes up. Anyone know how to get this set up and done?

It's under the 'Sign in' menu. 'Enable Cloud Storage'.

That's great, thanks. But it gave me this window saying to enter my name so people can see my "adventures." My "adventures" are to my fishing spots! How do I keep my "adventures" private?

Don't worry about that window. The wording is apparently wrong. We'll get that fixed. HomePort does not even support adventures.

Only you will have access to your cloud storage.

What can we then do with the "Cloud storage"? Does this mean we can then download the "stuff" (routes, WP's...) to the Mobile iOS app? Or.....?

Let's say you store your last trip in the cloud.

Then you visit a friend who also has HomePort installed. You login to your Garmin account and can access your data there.

Or you are using more than one computer at different locations. You now have access to the same data.

Potentially you can have access to that on mobile devices as well. I know there is BaseCamp mobile, I am not sure if we have an iOS marine app yet. But that would certainly make sense.

Yes, there is the Marine mobile Garmin app.!

When will The marine mobile app " BlueChart " support cloud storage ?
