Connectivity is poor

Hey Garmin,

i bought the Edge 530 a few days ago.

Nice piece of technic, but:

How to Start a Live Track or use Strava Beacon? All Settings are the same on Garmin Connect than with my Edge 820 i had before. Garmin Connect App is open in Background and Strava App also. Bluetooth Connection is given but when i start the Tour on my Edge nothing happens, even not the "Live Track Failed" message that i often had on my Edge 820.

Next Problem is the Upload of the Tour after the Ride, Edge is connected to WLAN but the tour is not Uploading, even not when i try to manually upload it from the Tour List.

I have to use Garmin Express on my Mac for it, WELCOME TO THE YEAR 2000 :-(

I Use a Iphone 6S latest IOS and my Edge 530 has Latest Firmware 3.5

Is there a solution for this or did i bought a piece of 300€ Crap?
