Garmin Connect

When will Garmin pay attention to the Garmin Connect application. So far I've been buying Garmin devices, edge 800, 830, 1000, 1030, vivoactive, a lot of money spent. I always expected to have some surplus with the software Garmin Connect, I am very disappointed. Garmin keeps the Garmin Connect very basic expecting users to buy the Strava annual fee. If I have to buy 3rd parties software, then I might as well buy other devices which are far less expensive than the Garmin.

    Are there specific features you'd like to have added? If so, at what cost to the consumer? Higher prices for your Garmin devices?

    There are a lot of features that could be  improved, exercise analysis, segment analysis, training plans, change a date of planned exercise, course drawing, web interface, etc. For someone that paid 600€ for an Edge 1030 e few euros would not make the difference. Using a software that stops in time can make a difference, specially if you are already paying a premium price for the device/software package.

    These features already exist. Are you saying they need to be made better or easier for you to use? Do you need help with a specific function? Maybe we can help you here.

    Garmin should just take a hit on their profits to add the Garmin Connect features you want? I don't think the shareholders would like that very much.

    If you want a specific feature or improvement, you should request it using the Share Ideas form: https://www.garmin.com/en-US/forms/ideas
