As I know it is still not possible to synchronize EDGE with Garmin Connect Mobile during active activity. My typical "workflow" during ride is:
- Start activity just after start my ride and keep it running with autopause during all my ride this day
- Let assume that during this ride I need to create track because I want to go to somewhere using navigation in EDGE. I am using GCM to create the course.
- Next I am marking this new course to "Send to device". It show me information that this course will be sent to my device during next synchronization
And in this moment problem begins because synchronization will not occur as long as my activity is active. I do not want to stop it and have 100 km ride split in many parts in Garmin Connect and Strava.
What is your solution for this problem?
PS. I know solution with IQ Wideget "GRouteLoader Widget" but it is very inconvenient. It requiring to download course first go to Garmin Connect website in browser on phone. Then extract part or URL of this course and then use it on GRoute Loader widget to download it to EDGE.
