Tread®

I installed this app to use with my Tread 2 and the app keeps quitting on its own or freezes when I’ll in the app making routes. It seems to disconnect from my phone periodically too. Need to fix this!!!!

Very Good GPS++++++

I’ve replaced all my nav devices with zumo xt’s because of the route planning capabilities of tread and the automatic sync. Huge improvement

Works well with downloaded routes from my route app.

Loving the tread XL and app so far. Hands down the biggest miss is not being able to create tracks on the app that can be sinked back to the unit. Creating routes is a problem as well. You can’t create a route unless using a road system. For an Offroad gps that is kind of ridiculous! I’m assuming it’s because I’m in Alaska. But only major rivers and lakes are named. I use other apps and small rivers, streams and lakes are identified. Annoying Overall good product and I do recommend it to buddies.

There’s been a bit of a learning curve, transferring routes from MRA to the Tread app. Once you understand how it works, it makes Route planning extremely easy.

When trying to select vehicle type no options appear and you can not go forward or back. Unable to add tracks to unit from iOS

As someone that isn’t all that experienced with GPS software, I can tell you Tread is 1000 times better than Basecamp! Obviously…Lol Seriously though, Garmin has done a great job making Tread easy to use when creating routes and then getting that data to your device. If you’ve used something like Gaia, it’s pretty much a seamless transition to Tread, in my opinion anyway.

I get traffic alerts, and text messages from my wife seamlessly. Very happy with this iteration of the software.

The app is super easy to use with the Zumo XT2. I like the easy windy road feature to create a route. I can use my iPhone to create the routes and then easily syncs up with the Zumo XT2.
