Are you working on adding Specialized aNGI support to the Garmin app or even to the Garmin edge devices?

The new helmets with aNGI crash detection use Bluetooth to connect to phone. Wahoo computers now support it so I am hoping Garmin is working on including it soon.

But I use Garmin Edge for the bike (my Forerunner 945 is better for running/swimming and extended mode is limited). We should be able to connect ANGi to Edge - as a redundant accident detection system…

Sorry mate, previous message not at you, but the previous guy.

Keen to have Angi connectivity with Garmin as well

I am hoping for this. I don’t need another log unit :(

Please add angi support, my edge incident detection always misfires so I had to disable it, something mounted to the helmet is a much better idea

How does ANGi compare to Garmin's Incident Detection Feature?

Garmin® uses an accelerometer to determine if there's an impact to the bicycle. The regular motion of riding, starting, and stopping can trigger false alarms. Additionally, an impact to a bike that triggers the alarm can happen even when the rider is unharmed.

ANGi is attached to the helmet and is specifically designed to measure linear and rotational forces to the head. The sensor is specifically looking for crashes that deliver dangerous forces that could result in a rider being unable to seek help themselves. ANGi is designed to get riders help when they need it most.

Agreed. Remembering to start the Ride app is beyond me. I want the ANGi to connect to my Garmin head unit and start operating when I start riding.

You could ask the manufacturer of your ANGi device to provide a Connect IQ app that can be installed on your Garmin device, and that would take care about the communication between the ANGi and Garmin devices. If they are not willing to do it, try to get the documentation of their API, or of the ANT+ protocol they use, and then find a 3rd party developer willing to code it.
