Share activity, but hide map?

Is it possible to make an activity public, but make the map private?
  • No, at least not at this time. Some services (strava) allow you to specify privacy zones. Perhaps this could be turned into an enhancement request for Garmin Connect.

    I agree that this would be a great option. I have no problem with sharing how I am training and welcome any advice, but I'm uneasy with showing the routes I take.

    Any ideas on how to get this function added to Garmin?
  • That would be a good question for the web development team, but it should be simple to just have a check mark next to the map to show or hide it on publicly shared activities. Thanks.

    I too need this function. There is a clear distinction between sharing workout data/metrics (from which it is impossible to identify an individual) and sharing location data (from which it would be easily possible to identify an individual if routes were repeated at regular times). I am eager to share data with friends and colleagues, but not where exactly I work out. As a previous poster has mentioned, this is surely a very simple check mark add-in. Thanks.

    Please add this feature.
  • Simple - Just use the treadmill mode on your watch. Will show no map

    It's not that easy, as by using an indoor profile on a watch - a map will not be saved at all, so you won't see it too.

    Probably better try to set large privacy zones, those are currently available.

    But an option to just hide whole path would be more convenient.
