Remove old devices from iOS Connect app

I've removed devices from connect.garmin.com but they still show up under 'registered devices' in the iOS Connect app - anyone know how to remove those? Weird thing is only some devices that I've already removed show up there
  • Oh boy, this is a fun one.

    • Garmin Connect: hamburger menu > click on the word "Devices" > all devices registered to GC will display here. Click the gear and remove.
    • Garmin Express: remove from there
    • iOS app: sign out > delete the app and data > download and sign in.

    You'll also want to remove the devices from the Bluetooth section in iOS.

    No need to delete the app - just go there under menue "devices" and swipe to the left on the device thats should be deleted - it appears a delete field...

    I just tried that on some devices that are registered in GC, but not currently connected to my phone; no left swipe, thus no delete field. Are you on Android or iOS?
  • Same problem

    I have the same problem for two F3's that I've sold. They're gone from Garmin Express, they're not in "My devices", nor anywhere except in the iOS version of Garmin Connect. There's no way to delete them, swiping left/right/up/down etc has no affect, and there's no menu to do anything on the screen except "add device". These seem to be ghost remnants that somehow when I deleted them, I didn't follow the right procedure. Any help?

    What ChevronLugs suggested above worked for me

    After confirming the devices were removed from all other places, deleting and reinstalling the app got the former devices to go away.

    iOS... eventually its not possible for you, because you removde the device (according to your instructions) before in GC and in your Garmin Acc (device list)...
    Actually i have my F5 added as normal and i've the "swipe-to-delete" option within garmin connect app on my iPhone...

    I'm on iOS as well, and no matter what order I removed things, be it website, Express, app, nothing worked until removing the mobile app along with data. It seems Garmin is caching those former connections within the mobile app and only a deletion of app and data does the trick.

    You need to log into MyGarmin and you should see the devices and can remove from there.

    I had been through the suggested steps and MyGarmin was my final try. I did delete the app as well because it was stil recognising an older deleted device as the primary Activity Tracker
