My Garmin Connect Wishlist.

TR3VORM
I love the new connect.garmin.com but there are a few improvements that would make my life easier and connect.garmin quicker to use. In no particular order, here is my wishlist:
1/ I need an easy way of deleting multiple activities.
2/ Can the default map view be remembered? I love San Francisco, but I would prefer my default view to be local.
3/ The RSS feed uses imperial units by default. Could this be set to using my units?
4/ When I set a filter for my activities, it would be good if this was 'remembered'.
5/ I would like to be able to look at the next/previous activity without having to go to the list of activities.
6/ When importing from file, I would optionally like to overwrite existing activities.
7/ Can I compare one activity with another? Similar to 'CompareTracks' functionality.
8/ It would be good if I could add other activity categories... Orienteering, Rogaine, golf, ...
9/ I would like to be able to easily manage a list of 'friend's so I can see what they are up to, within the Garmin website. Lots of options here for virtual races, shared goals, comments, ...
10/ Bug: Manual import doesn't like null <Name> tags in TCX file

    TR3VORM, I totally agree with all of your requests! Thanks for posting!

    I have just read the threads from members regarding the Motion Based features - I never used Motion Based because it required paying money (the NZ$ does not transfer well in to any currency) so I do not know what features were and weren't there before. However, I did use a range of other tools as no single application did everything; Training Center, Sportstracks, Comparetracks.

    In my way of thinking, I have already paid plenty of money to Garmin for GPS hardware. I don't see why I should pay a subscription to provide Garmin with a lot of valuable data that can be used for sales, marketing and business development purposes.

    A little late now, but most of the feature available to MB subscribers were free.

    I did look a long time ago, but I vaguely recall a restriction on the number of viewable activities?

    Great list - a few more

    Great list ... here are a few additions I'd really like to see as well.

    • Better Social Features - friends, easy sharing and tracking of activities
    • auto-upload from Garmin Training Center
    • Mobile Access - I don't need the player option (but would love it as an SVG which could play on mobile units)
    • ability to compare workouts to see progress compare sessions etc

    larger google maps/export KML

    the old MB site had a view larger maps function that i've used to export my rides to my blog. i'd like to see similar functionality as well as to export generalized tracks to mashup w/google maps. the KML export right now is HUGE, too huge to be practical.

    thanks.

    I have locked this thread. Nothing wrong with what's being posted here, but it'll be easier to see what features have been requested (and add your voice to that thread) if we keep each feature request to its own thread.

    Please see the sticky post in this section on how to help keep the Feature Request forum clean and manageable.

    Please feel free to repost each idea in its own thread.

    Thanks,
    April
