Garmin Connect Mobile Ideas and Suggestions

It will probably not be added because it is the same as hiking or walking. Each new activitiy type needs some specific difference from the already existing activities. Just make a copy of hiking or walking and name it Rucking.

Please allow the user to select a separate default running shoe for trail runs. For people who run both road and trails it’s a royal pain to constantly change gear for the run type. There is already a separate gear default for hikes so it is doable. Just please do it. 

Not only for running this would be useful. In general all activity profiles should be selectable as default for equipment. E.g. bike enthusiasts will have a road bike, a mountain bike, a gravel bike etc. adding one bike to all bike activities is useless in that case. 

Grouping multiple activities, completed on the same day, under single category tab (e.g. running), so that you do not have the view cluttered gazillion entries while you can see all individual activities under each category tab with a single tap or swipe.

Please add 3 months and 6 months statistics to steps statistics. It will be very useful to see the improvement

Hi, it would be great to be able to do a search by key word in the iOS app, to find all activities with them. Plus, it could be great to have other filters for activities such as bouldering > today, it's "only" bike, swimming, hiking and running. (those 2 options be possible on the website). Thanks!

1. A search function. At the moment Garmin connect can seem like a deposit of data.  It is hard to find a previous run to compare. so after I do a set of 800s, I would like to 'Search - 800' and all my previous 800s (where I have manually changed the title of the run) appear. Or click Race, and I can see all my races to see my progress (see suggestion 2 below ;)  

2. I would like sub categories of the Run to allow me apply a lable such as Race, Intervals, tempo, threshold, fartlek etc. These could be a slightly different colour on the calander etc. This also lets me review all my recent races, intervals etc 

Thanks

Do you know about Garmin Connect Web? You got great search and filter functions there: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activities

Some categories can be set now and used as filter. 

Yes, this is great to use the website ! But it would be even better to be able to do the same kind of searches in the mobile app

Hi Andy, Just had a look at the search function on the web version and it is very handy as you said. I hadn't seen it before. Thanks for that. The Categories drop down only has a few options that I can see. In any case, hopefully a search function on the app might get added. Thanks

Give us the ability to scale the Y-axis in the various plots. I don't and will never care about the 0 to 100 spm cadence range for instance. By forcing us to use the auto generated range, it squashes the details and you can't actually see anything. It would also get nice to download the GPX files directly from the phone app onto the phone, so that I can do my own analysis
