Garmin Connect™

it's alright, neither as terrible or as life changing as some imply. The subscription is pretty useless. I would have considered paying if it allowed me to properly integrate with fitness apps that gave actual training guides and classes, but no, I have to pay other services to shuttle my data onto this platform. Open your ecosystem, integrate with other providers and your app/hardware would be utterly indispensable to me. Now I'm only here until something better comes along.

I honestly love the app and the interface tons. But I have a huge problem with the fact that you cannot input any custom BMI values UNLESS you purchase and add the Garmin scale they sell. I paid to have a very accurate BMI measurement taken and I have nowhere to input it now. It's not a technology issue, it's the decision they actively made against us.

I love my watch - I use it for health tracking, mainly sleep, oxygen, heart rate, HRV, and stress. Lately, I'm mostly tracking sleep. I think it's extremely annoying that you cannot delete naps in the Garmin Connect app. My Garmin device frequently falsely detects naps. You can edit the nap times, but cannot delete them! It also sometimes doesn't detect sleep properly, and even after editing sleep times, will still give false info about the sleep I got, like saying it was short when it wasn't.

The app used to be better before an update that happened a bit ago. Now the layout mimics that of Fitbit, which I personally hate. It's drab, it's not conducive for the user and overall was a bad move. I'm hoping Garmin will either fit it in an update, or give users the option to pick how they want their app set up. If not, I'll find another tracker to use

I have had this app for years at this point and it is easy to use, though sometimes updates make it forget settings and you have to re-enter them. I am hopeful that the data that is currently-and has been for years- free in the app remains free, as I do not want to pay for their very expensive monthly pay wall for features their already expensive products have as standard. I have had two Garmin devices and this app has been great for both of them the last 7 years.
