  • 90s product

    Garmin products feel incredibly outdated. Absolute mess of a system that should be remade from the ground up if they ever want their products to be taken seriously. Having so many different apps is not a good thing, having so many different types of filters and layers and junk is not a good thing. A map should be straightforward. Here’s your waypoints, here’s your routes, here’s your campgrounds and public lands. Instead they’ve made such a goofy system with all of these features that do not flow together well at all. Using garmin has been anything but straightforward and so I’ll be finding a better alternative.

    I’m still learning this app and my device. However so far I am really enjoying it. I will add more as I learn more. Just have one question and that is which app is better for the inReach mini. This one or the earth one.

    Moderate to intermediate outdoor enthusiasts. This device has been amazing once you understand and utilize all the web tools available to plan hikes.

  • Heart rate and irregularities tracking

    Recently I was awakened in the middle of the night, I felt unusual and checked my Garmin Instinct Tactical watch which showed unusually fast and irregular heart rate. Went to the hospital in the morning and they verified I had A-Fib. More recently while working outside in the sun and heat my watch alarm went off showing an unusually high heart rate, for an old man, of 146. I went into the house cooked down and rested. It is great to have such a great monitor. I also use my instinct to track me while hiking and hunting in the wilderness, it is always nice to know if you loose your way you can back track your way out!
  • Works!

    Once I learned the ins and outs of the app, it works every time. Does truncate some points on a large gpx file and not sure why, hence the 4star review.
  • Greed Corrupts

    Garmin has become a greedy cash grabbing company adding subscriptions to their over priced hardware. Shame on Garmin!
