Impossible to share activities on social network

Hello,

Since the app update, I have not the possibility to share my activities on social network from garmin connect mobile.
It only appears "Mail, SMS and Copy"...

Do yo have an idea?

Thank's !

    Share live track from FB, twitter and email.

    I been trying to select live track option using FB to share my live track.

    I just couldn't share at all, I check my FB setting and trying to find the enable option for Garmin Connect to access FB.
    But there isn't any Garmin Connect display in my iOS FB setting.

    Even in my twitter, I have Garmin Connect in the iOS and already enable to share my live track but I just cannot share my live track to anyone.

    I have no choice to share my live track via emails.
    but my friends told me there is signal and couldn't see where I am.....

    This is totally disappointment for me....


    Anyone user having the same issue as me? please share how you deal with it and solve it?
    :mad:

    I'm having the same issue too.

    Now I manage to access live track via Twitter.
    for FB, I still don't option to select in my iOS FB setting.

    Deleted FB app and re-installed = still no change GC app for access.
    Deleted GC app and re-installed = Stil no change GC app for access.

    I have no choice to copy the Live track link from my Twitter and pasted on FB.

    Therefore, I dont really know what really the problem from....

    I'm really not very pleased at all.

    Please do something about it.

    Since the update of Garmin Connect It is not possible to upload activities from other apps (For example Wahoo) to Garmin Connect. Is this perhaps the same problem?

    I have a Garmin 220, and it stopped allowing Live track. I then updates the firmware, and reloaded the Garmin connect app, and it all worked fine. I got my brother a 220 for his birthday, and he is having the same issues listed above for posting to Facebook. He can do the email thing, but not to Facebook. I don't understand it at all - told him to re-load the app and update the 220, but not luck. A fix would be great

    Hi all after having the same problem with my brand new unit and unsuccessfully trying to reinstalling I got it to work by signing in to FB not via the app but via iphone settings. So I was always logged in via the FB app but not via the iPhone settings. Now I was able to switch on FB live track without a problem.
  • Same problem for me as well. My wife and kid bought me the Garmin Edge 810 for safety reasons. I often bike by myself in the country and my family wanted know where I was in case something would happen to me while I am riding. The LiveTrack feature was working fine until Garmin decided to update it. Since then I haven't been able to share my ride through Facebook. It is working with Tweeter but my wife does not use us, neither my kids. I have deleted the Garmin Connect app from my iPhone and reinstalled it but that does not resolve the issue. Last Friday, I saw a post saying that not only you need to de-install the Garmin Connect app from the iPHone but you also need to clear the "cache". I did that and was really hoping this was going to fix the problem but unfortunately, it did not. I just make a 60 mile ride by and was hoping my wife was going to be able to track me and bring me a rain jacket but she could not saw where I was. I was in the Gran Fondo Italy in Miami Coral Gable and not familiar with the area I was not able to let her know where I was. I hope someone from Garmin see these posts and will really do something to help his customers. So far, their customer support nil.
  • Did you read the post immediately above yours? It appears that that solution worked for at least one person.

    When I go into the Live Track screen and select the toggle to share on my Twitter account, the app gets stuck with a transparent overlay. It works fine with the Facebook toggle. The only way to come out of this screen is to go into the iPhone Settings -> Twitter and select the toggle to not allow Connect to have access to my Twitter accounts. I have re-installed both Garmin Connect and the Twitter app several times, I have toggled the Connect access to Twitter slider several times, all to no avail. Any ideas?
