Uploading activities to Garmin Connect website

I am a new Garmin user and, so far, like what I see. I have a Garmin soft strap HR monitor that connects to my Forerunner 735XT. After my activity, I see the results on my Samsung Galaxy 8 cellphone and, then, on the Garmin Connect website (https://connect.garmin.com/en-US/).

Do I absolutely have to have my Samsung cellphone with me when I do my activity for the activity to be uploaded to the Garmin Connect website, or does my Forerunner 735XT automatically upload the activity to the Garmin Connect website without going through the Samsung cellphone? I prefer not to take my cellphone to the gym, but still want the activity to be stored on the Garmin Connect website so I can export it to a file.

Thanks!
  • The watch stores all registered activity in its own storage. You do not need your smartphone with you when excercising. All registered activities will be uploaded to Garmin Connect once a connection to your smartphone becomes available.
