GC "Explore" - Default Location

Is there any way to have the "Starting Near" field populated with the last location we searched? Or even our most recent map location within Garmin Connect, instead of San Francisco*?


*No offense to San Fran it's a great city.
  • From the old MotionBased forum:

    The feature was in the last release but pulled last minute due to the way it assigned locations for certain countries. But the UI components for the feature were not removed. It's back in the next major release scheduled for late August to early September and a bulk process will be run to assign locations to the existing activities.
  • Ditto the complaint that Explore | Activities always goes to San Francisco. The devices knows where we spend our time...

    Please confirm how I change the default current map view in the "starting near" field in Garmin Connect.

    I think it's easiest to force it to a latitude/longitude. Try entering:

    -34.07, 18.36

    in the Starting Near: field and then searching.

    I wish they would fix this simple bug.
