Access Edge storage with mobile phone.

Hi,
is it possible somehow to access sreenshots folder on edge 1040 from any smartphone
(most preferably wirelessly, less with USB OTG).

Just tried to connect my 2017 iPad Pro with my 1030+ (what I had to hand) using USB and Apple's USB to Lightening adapter. It does connect but not enough power to maintain the connection. Maybe a newer iPad with USB-C might work? No idea how you would connect wirelessly without some software to support it though.

You need a USB OTG cable if your smartphone port does not already have it built in (rare).
It's a feature of the usb port not an Edge fault.

I tested again my Garmin Edge 1040 with an USB OTG cable with Android, the GPS is charging, but it is not recognized.

When I connect it to my computer (Linux, yes Linux, not Windows or Mac), an icon is flashing, I think it negotiate something, and this works.

When I connect it to my smartphone, no icon is flashing, and it does not work.

My GoPro video camera is working, my photo camera (bort in 2016) is working.

I think it's the incompetence of Garmin team.
