Here are a few enhancements that would be nice to make GC a better platform:
1. Easier way to connect with people. The current 'Search' feature is pretty much useless unless you know the person/people you are looking for by name/ID. I get the entire 'international' feel, but it would be nice to search a location for people around your area or by geographic locale. It would be great to find people residing in my own state.
2. Searching for relevant groups that share your pursuits... again, the search option for groups is also useless. There should be a filter option or drop down selection for specific activity types: Ultra Runners, Mountain Biking Groups, Tri-Athletes, ect.
3. Once you make a connection it would be nice to message them privately. Or better yet, send a group message to all your connections that they can follow your activity. Seems intuitive that this would be a feature.
4. The GC app for the iPhone is really watered down... it is impossible to upload your activity and then do a 'Full Edit' on the necessary fields or categories (Event Type or example).
5. Add more categories! really, you have dozens to choose from but there are an equal amount that are absent: tennis, jumping rope, trekking, backpacking, ect.
How on earth are some of the 'Other' selections even valid: motorcycling, driving, sailing, flying???? gee, you missed: chess, knitting, laundry, cooking, hop-scotch, and scrap booking!
Lots of potential to make GC a really nice, comprehensive platform. Com'on Garmin... get to work.
