Garmin Connect missing from share card in Google and Apple Maps in iOS26.

When sharing a map location from either Google or Apple Maps, you could previously share to Garmin Connect and use that to route to that location. This has gone missing in iOS26. 

This looks to be an iOS 26 specific issue as others have reported the same throughout the iOS26 Beta. Those enrolled in the public beta are now receiving the final release version, so this bug will be present on release day unless there's a Garmin Connect update. 

It's still possible to share a GPX file to the Connect App, however, so it's not all share cards the Connect is missing from. 

I share this to raise awareness rather than looking for a fix, this will almost certainly be dependent on an update from Gamin. All other apps I use this functionality with are working fine - Wahoo, MyBMW among others, so I don't think this is an iOS bug.

    I can confirm that as of tonight this feature is now working again. It’s taken a long time but it’s good to have Apple Map sharing to Garmin back. It’s so much easier to send a destination this way than to use the fiddly interface on the Edge Device. 

    It has been thought that an update to the Connect App was the solution but despite having two updates to the app over the last couple of months the issue remained. 

    I can’t say what fixed it today as my app has not been updated recently and neither has my IOS version. I am on IOS 26.01. Something has obviously changed but it’s not been done through a regular update. Anyone got any ideas what fixed it?

    Yes! Works again for me as well. I also did not recently update GC or iOS. It’s a mystery, but I love it.

    For me it now works from Apple maps but not Google? This morning there was an update for Garmin Jr. in case that can have something to do with it?
