Turn off automatic naming of activities

Look's that there are numerous problems where uploaded activities are named to incorrect locations. At least for me, this happens everytime and every individual activity needs to be edited. Veeery annoying.

Please, turn off the automatic location naming and let the user decide whether to use this (non-functioning) feature or not.

Mine are all correct, what device do you have? What map are you using?

Are the locations at least close? The last time I looked into this, Garmin was calculating GC location information based on the geographic center of the closest city. It's possible to be in one city but closer to the geographic center of an adjacent city. Yes, it would be nice if that could be turned off by the user or at least corrected to use a more accurate formula for determining location.

Locations are off usually some 20-50km's.

Is the geographic center of that city closer to you? This is still possible.

No, it's not. And honestly, I wouldn't care it if it would.

I'd like the option to turn this off as well!
