Wifi Setup

Does someone know if is in planning to add feature to setup wifi from garmin connect mobile instead of use garmin express?

I also want to know this!
The new "big" watches have WiFi built in and I prefer it over Bluetooth.
The communication between watch and cloud is mainly done by Android or iOS driven hardware. But I have to use Garmin Express and a Windows driven hardware to set up WiFi.
If I am not at home I only have non Windows smart products with me. So no chance to set up my watch for a new WiFi connection in Holliday.

What's the reason for that???

Have you checked on the watch itself? On a 5fx, with 5.84 FW, under settings>wifi>my networks, you can add a new network.

Good spot Jim, I hadn't seen that!

CW - It's a bit harder to enter the WiFi password without a keyboard, but I tried it and it works fine! I'm not sure when it was added (what FW version)
