How to easily send a searched address from your phone to Garmin (Google Maps)?

A while ago Garmin added a feature to share postions as navigation target via Iphone. Check if you can share a position from apple maps with the Garmin connect app.

I am on Android there they didn't implement that, no clue why. I stuck a garmin mount on my phone case so I can quickly click it on my handle bar in such situations.

Thank you so much for mentioning this! I was so frustrated from not being able to search for and navigate to an address on my 1050. Can confirm: Apple maps search result can be shared with Connect app. Connect app then lets you send that address to the connected 1050. Still can't search on 1050 device itself, but I am OK with that workaround. 

Thank you so much, I feel relieved now that I can finally search for an address.

It works well with Apple Maps, and I just need to press the button to export it to Garmin Connect.

Personally, I use Google Maps a lot, but unfortunately, I don’t see this function for Connect there.

Is there a different method for that?

It’s really a shame that Garmin sells its top cycling navigation device, and it can't search for addresses!‍♂️

For me, that was the primary reason for purchasing the navigation.
