Garmin Connect Mobile 4.22 for Android includes the changes to allow HTTP on 127.0.0.1.

Connect version 4.20 broke local http access?

Getting several reports of functionality no longer working, it looks like Android Garmin connect app version 4.20 may have broken web request to local host via urls like http://127.0.0.1:17580/sgv.json?count=3

    One thought I had on the bike after tediously going through the wifi disable / enable routine for what feels like the hundredth time: all those pains could be resolved if widgets had an way to disable/enable Wifi when needed. I think the current API allows read access to some configuration keys but not write?

    Configuration write through cIQ could be valuable in general, because many people will have *some* exotic configuration toggle need. Far too exotic to include in the default UI, but a widget tailored to their specific need could make them happy. That long tail of niche functionality, that's exactly what cIQ should be about.

    So for those reading at Garmin: if you have a pros/cons board about a cIQ configuration write feature, feel free to add "would also kind of solve that long standing phone localhost via BT-uplink topic" to the pros side :)
