Dear Garmin developpers
(I also posted this in the "new ideas" link)
The problem
- Recently I went on my bike to ride a navigated route (course)
- I created a course with Garmin Connect and uploaded/synched to my Garmin Edge 1040 Solar
- I started the activity. Halfway, I discovered I transferred the wrong route to my Garmin (my own mistake)
- So I stopped and used my phone to create the right route, assuming I could load my new route on the fly to my Garmin Edge and get the right navigation instructions
- I tried to upload the course to my Garmin Edge, but I could not sync and start a new course during an activity???
- This seems unnecessary and annoying, because I is perfectly possible on the Garmin Edge to change navigation instructions during an activity, for example I can navigate back to start the most direct way or I can fill in an address as destination
The solution
- Please eliminate the obstruction to synch and start new courses to Garmin Edge during an activity, there seems no good reason why this is blocked and I think this would be useful for a lot of cyclists and runners
- For example when you get tired during a course or when a certain road is blocked and you want to manually create a new course
Kind regards!
