Up until last year was able to use the Connect IQ "axsMTB" app on my Explore 2 to show the gear.

This no longer works nor can I find the axsMTB app in the Connect IQ store.

Side note: the web Connect IQ store is currently not responding.

The EE2 does not have the SRAM AXS sensor code so its unable to use the direct integration.

Has anyone found a SRAM interface to the EE2 that works?

Thanks.

Received an email from SRAM from [email protected]

Got a support ticket.

Hello,

I too have searched for a solution but no way to get it working.

Another marketing garmin has done is that EE2 also doesn't have this function:

EXTENDED DISPLAY (ALLOWS A GARMIN WATCH TO SHARE DATA SCREENS ON EDGE^®)

Looks like Garmin is unwilling to give any opportunity for EE2 users to have the ability to connect to electronic shifter.

As they pulled this app off from CIQ Store:

Yes, link you included now goes to the round basket.

Found this but also no EE2 support.

You can use it on your Fenix watch though which as an alternative makes no sense when it should show on the bike computer natively.

Argh!

Maybe SRAM has no idea about this and/or they may be able to help.

Its another vector to try.

It used to work well with data field from store. Looks like Garmin blocked it on purpose. I can display current shift on my GPS map 66 but not on edge 2. Garmin, wtf !?
