RSS Feature lags behind my uploads - automatic sharing?

Hi,

I've tried searching the forums for RSS problems but search results come back blank.... sorry if i'm just not using it correctly.

Anyway, why does my RSS feed not show recent activities/uploads.... it seems to lag behind my uploads by several days. Is there some magic setting i've missed?

I'm trying to find a way to automatically share my workouts with friends without having to go here, click there, type this here, select that, touch your toes, etc, etc. Basically, i want to find a means of automatically notifying friends when i upload a workout. My sporty pals are not all on FaceBook and most of us only use a PC/MAC at work... we want a generic means of getting a notification on a tablet/smartphone. RSS seems like the perfect solution - but its not up-to-date with our workouts.... why not!?

If there is no solution then i guess we'll have to dump our attempts to use Garmin and use apps like MapMyRun, SportsTracker etc. I don't want to have to switch on a PC, log in to GarminConnect and check my connections panel to see what my pals have been up to... life's to short!! Technology moved beyond that kind of faff years ago!!

Cheers

Mike

P.S. i like the hardware but the social element seems lacking - unless you can automatically notify?
  • Garmin - could you at least acknowledge if the RSS feed does indeed lag behind - it does not update with my workouts? It is not just me doing something stupid?

    Is there another method that provides automatic notifications to friends of my workouts?

    I eventually found a similar thread complaining about the same.... from 2010 i believe so thought it would have been resolved!!!
