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

    Guys, if you want to do offline imports of tracks to your Garmin watches, you can try this app:
    https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=info.wearsoft.locus.addon.ciq
    I already made it compatible with Garmin's "fix". 

    Short comment from me to the situation: Please keep in mind this was not some independent unfortunate event or accident. Thanks to my experience in the same field, I am sad to predict that with the way how Connect IQ is currently managed by Garmin, issues like this will be happening more and more often leaving both devs and users desperate. I hope somebody responsible in Garmin will finally realise this. It is too late for just trying to learn from previous mistakes.
