Missing privacy caused by tracks starting in front of the door!

Former Member over 11 years ago

As long as everybody is able to see via my GPS start/stop position in which house I live not only me will never use Connect!
Have a good example with STRAVA, there it works fine in the "enhanced privacy mode"!

Zitation:
"Enter a location below to have it hidden on your activity maps. If your activity starts or ends within a 500m-1km radius of the address, the start and/or end of the activity will be hidden from other users"

I think this is a worthwhile enhancement request, but to say that you can't use Garmin Connect because the feature doesn't exist is crazy. If you are so concerned about your safety/privacy, you could easily start/end all of your workouts from some other common location like a school.

Funny to correct round about 400 Tracks for this case.
In my opinion this problem is not acceptable, but surely easy for Garmin to make out of problem a feature........
If STRAVA this has solved why not Garmin???

Or you could change the privacy settings for your activities.

Are you sure it's fully solved by Strava? Have you ever exported gpx of a "protected" track? You'd be surprised.

EDIT: Never mind. It appears they fixed that bug!!!
