Bought the new Garmin Edge 520 PLUS bike computer Jan 2019. Have owned several Garmin Fitness products. Spent about 4 hours yesterday trying to enable “turn by turn navigation audio prompts” - but could never get it to work. Tried many, many steps: reinstalling/resetting device and app on iPhone. Deleted and repaired Bluetooth (both BT connections) many, many times. Several iterations of all of the above. Basic troubleshooting. I’m using iPhone X with latest iOS. Upgraded the Connect mobility app. Deleted and reinstalled. Everything (iPhone, Edge 520 Plus, Mobile connect App, and Desktop) are all on lastest, up-to-date firmware, etc The issue is on the audio prompts enablement screen. The Navigation Alert toggle is just below the lap alert. It seems to be entirely non-functional. When I toggle the navigation alerts ON and back out of screen, then come back it is always diabled. (Lap Alert Toggle works fine and uploads to device.) But the Navigation Alert toggle is being totally ignored. See attacheed send screen shot. As another poster wrote, if you look at the sync-logs, the other toggles are all represented. Seems I can get everything else to work fine, uploading, downloading maps, etc. However this Voice Navigation toggle seems to be 100% smoke and mirrors at the moment. Took it back to REI and showed them. 3 cycle staff played around with it and searched the formums, etc. They suspect buggy Garmin software. We submitted all of this info and pics to Garmin support online - but NO response. This is a showstopper for me. The audio prompting is THE primary feature I was looking for. If I can’t get spoken audio navigation prompting to work then I will return this device. Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions. :)??????? ciq.forums.garmin.com/.../1445204.png
This works just fine for me on Android. I suspect the problem is with Garmin's iphone GCM app rather than the 520 Plus. You may get confirmation of the toggle problem by posting on the GCM sub-forum rather than 520+ sub-forum.
