GPSMap 67i: How to pair with Garmin Connect if already paired with Garmin Explore

Have a brand new GPSMap 67i although I’ve had previous GPSMAP units. Was able to successfully pair with the iOS Garmin Explore App. Tried to pair with iOS Garmin Connect app and was told to put 67i in pairing mode. The only way to do this would be to “forget” the bluetooth paring I had done with Garmin Explore.

How can I pair both iOS apps (Explore and Connect) to my GPSMAP 67i?

  • The suggested order is to first pair with Connect app, and then pair with the Explore app. Basically the Explore app will see that the GPSMAP is already setup with connect and will ask to configure it for Explore.

    Just like you I couldn't get the other way around (first Explore then Connect) to work.
