Garmin Edge 820 and Strava Live Segments: how does it work?

Garmin Edge 820 and Strava Live Segments:
I can´t really get that working

Garmin Connect is connected to Strava (Premium), all new activities are synced.
At https://connect.garmin.com/modern/account Strava is only listed as „read“

At Strava https://www.strava.com/athlete/segments/starred I marked several segments as favorites (with star)
At https://connect.garmin.com/modern/segments I only see the „old Garmin segments“, nothing new from Strava.

On the 820 at Training|Segments I only see: No Segments saved.

What do I have to do?

and second question:
I don´t need a permanent Bluetooth Connection to my mobile with Garmin Connect Mobile, do I?
  • Does it work this way using Garmin live segments, too?


    Garmin segments can be incorporated in a Course when the Course is created.
  • I’m in the same boat! Had Gamin 520 then upgrade to 820 and now strava segments won’t sync to the device. I’ve never had an issue with my old 520. I know the Garmin software very well and have been using live segments for years. I’ve done everything to try and make it work, I’m sure there’s a bug, using the latest 9.0 Garmin firmware too! Help guys
  • I can't agree. This is one feature that works with the firmware 9.0 for me. But has been a little bit work. I must chosse Strava Segments in the Mobile Connect app several times before it worked. Always sets back to use Garmin segments. But after several sync of the settings it finally worked. Now Strava Segments are working again for me.
