A few questions

As a former user of 800/810/520/820 but with a Wahoo Bolt in between now back on a 830 (which is great!) I'm missing this possibilities from my Bolt;

- how can the unit auto power off? I know about sleep but that's something else I think (still uses a little powerrrr)

- how can I get a message on my phone the battery of the 830 is low?

- how can I upload a course (navigation route) to the 830 through my connect app?

Just go to the trainings chapter in garmin connect. Under courses you can create your own courses, use other ones courses or access courses you importet from a GPX file before. Or you use the 830 on device route planer to create your routes without a mobile being required.

I think the power saving modes are not primary in focus due to the bigger battery and low power consuption in the Garmin.

Thanks schlupp73 but I asked in the connect APP(!). I know how to do it on the website of course.... As for battery life; I suspect the Garmin will run out of that eventually. So both possibilities would be more than welcome/usefull

Found the app question; open a GPX file on my iPhone and then choose "save as" and the Connect app is also an option....it works :-)!
