Hello,
Do you have any idea when will Garmin Express allow to download updates of maps without device connected to the computer?
I am very irritated because I got Garmin Fenix 7 and Edge 1040, and really Garmin devices in some aspects feel like stuck in 2010 and not caching up to competitors regarding simplicity.
I understand that there is push to release new features all the time and this costs current features to not to be polished but come on Garmin!
In one hand you write in your faq how to threat battery to last longer, and on the other hand you create maps for whole continents which in my case would be downloaded in 3h per continent. It would’ve good to wait this 3 hours but download failed so many times that I prefer to have stock maps and not spend all day in front of computer. Yes I performed all the steps from your help web page and even reinstalled fully Garmin Express, but I would gladly see at least possibility to download updates of maps without plugging device to the computer and not to charge it all the time.
Also why in 2023 Garmin Express doesn’t allow to pause and resume of downloading updates? Maybe this would fix the problem where connection to your servers will break in the middle, and I will not have to start all over again from 0%.
Please listen Garmin as this is not funny. I prefer to have reliable devices which have less functions than devices with so many flaws (other problems are for another time). I am really looking forward for implementing improvements from your side and not only pushing new features to your devices which are used for 5% of buyers of your products.
Thank you!
