Why are my Quick Contours not uploading and available through the community?

I've tried every imaginable method to upload my quick contours to the community then download them to my phone. Why are they not working?

I have my phone and Echomap 7SV connected and "contribute to community" slider turned on all the time. I've tried the web version, dropping the file onto the page and getting confirmation that it uploaded. Contours never show up.

Any hints? Things I'm missing?

Same, following. Did you get an answer?

No answers, not sure Garmin is monitoring the website. I finally gave up on it. The issue with sharing is two-fold. One, a lot of people start fishing in your not-so-secrete spots that you've essentially led them to. Two, if the water level changes in your lake and people don't change their offsets, the map becomes a garbled pointless mess. Ultimately I also had to turn off the QuickContour starter map as well as community. The starter map was even more incorrect than community map and downright dangerously at times. It also created slow refresh rates even under 3mph since the unit was loading too many maps, most of which dramatically contradicted each other. I finally called them directly, its a better option if you want it solved.

I called Garmin directly and the people were good to work with. I talked to several people and got a lot of different answers. Between them all, I think I finally got that aspect working.

Likely not helpful at this point. I never figured out how to get your own data on your own phone, which i would much prefer.
