  • GPS for when you don’t need it.

    App is worthless as a GPS map when you have no cell/ WiFi/ internet. I wasn’t expecting the app to not work while out of my home country. When you need GPS because you don’t have service this app is useless!

    Pretty cool to see all the activities completed on the map. The custom course feature is neat. I enjoy finding and piecing together trails with it. Also great to get a gauge of distance and elevation before heading out.

    Garmin continues to break things that were working and generally make the user experience worse with each update
  • Awesome app!

    This app is easy to use, and is super helpful when hiking in the backcountry.

    The new update with the subscription is terrible. I use the explorer app with an alpha 300. Before the update it had its issues,(like when off the grid I could not use the app to locate my hand unit location),but now I have a lot of issues. One of the worst is when I’m off the grid and try zooming in on satellite map to make sure my hounds are all treed together. The screen goes to a dark green background instead of staying in the satellite imagery. The maps are not as detailed as I was hoping with paying for a subscription. Missing details of named creeks, hollows, ect. Please fix this new app.
  • Dog tracking

    Y’all have ruined a good app for dog tracking with the newest update. Have ran the app the past 2 years and loved it but this year I have done nothing but cuss the app. Had to go back to running the drive track to help keep track of the dogs. Guess y’all done done this update to try and push everyone to just buy the tread. Very very disappointed with Garmin on this issue
  • Was good now bad

    The app and the watch are no longer hardcore outdoor gear because of the changes to the app. Before the change use the app and the fenix watch together to enjoy the wilderness for long periods of time. Now you cannot. It’s just a poor app and the watch is just an over priced fitness tracker. Thanks for going mainstream garmin.
