Garmin Explore™

En mis viajes he aprendido a depender de mi equipo para comunicarme en lugares aislados

Continuamente la brújula en la aplicación deja de funcionar y se queda en un rumbo fijo la flecha. Con el uso continuo acumula error y es necesario reiniciar el teléfono para que la brújula del teléfono vuelva a funcionar correctamente. Incluso en la aplicación de “brújula” hay error en la orientación tras utilizar la app. Me estaba desviando del track por este detalle.

So I bought the fenix 5 plus since I use it for everything, from training, running, swimming, bike riding, even enduro riding and for my camping trips, I was excited to see this app but is not compatible with the flagship watch of the brand but it is with another one that has the same functionalities or less than the fenix, I think Garmin could make this app available for the fenix just through an update; this app could be a great addition but I’m not planning of spending 299dlls in another watch just to use it with the app.

There is some things I love and some things I do not. I wish there was better information on how to use it and not so much having to mess with it to figure it out. I love the texting and being able to let my loved ones fallow me on my adventures.

This app works like so many adventure type maps should.

Don’t bother. “Connection Timed Out” appears within seconds when pairing. Garmin needs to hire a few Apple engineers to overhaul all their UIs . And they need to internalize the idea that their users are not in Kansas, so software should work without a data connection. C’mon guys…

Great but need dark mode for maps and ability to edit courses made in the connect app

Just stick to Garmin, other brands are inferior. I’ve used my inReach mini 2 several times now and it’s incredible. Loving how it works so well with phone to send messages.

Just finished the JMT and used Garmin Explore along with my InReach for the better part of it. When compared to other trail apps, like AllTrails, Explore completely fails in every category. Not only are the maps low quality — like Windows 98 quality — but unlike the Garmin Messenger app, Explore either has a hard time refreshing or reconnecting to the satellite device, or it simply doesn’t provide any useful updates to its status. It basically failed every time I needed it most. At one point, during a side hike, I simply gave up and used AllTrails with my iPhone’s GPS, sans the InReach. The experience was night and day. Though it definitely drained my phone’s battery much faster, AllTrails exceeded every expectation. For a company that’s been in the GPS and map game for so long, the folks at Garmin have utterly failed at something other, newer companies do so well.

Dark mode for maps etc
