RouteAnalyst - In-Car Driving & Road Analysis for Garmin

RouteAnalyst is the only Garmin app that analyzes your driving style and road quality - by using your watch as an automotive black box!

Critical Setup and Calibration:
• Always mount your Garmin watch securely in your vehicle, positioned horizontally, facing forward (screen up), preferably on the center console or dashboard.
• Calibrate the device in this position before your first drive. The calibration menu is found in the app.
• Throughout your trip, do not move or reorient the watch - accurate readings require a stable, fixed position tracking the car’s true motion.
• This unique setup turns your Garmin device into a powerful event recorder and road quality logger - unlocking features never before possible on a wearable!

Important:
For accurate results, do NOT wear the watch on your wrist during driving!
Instead, mount your Garmin watch horizontally, facing forward, in the center of your car (e.g., on the dashboard or center console). This unique setup transforms your watch into a powerful driving event recorder and trip analyzer.

What Does RouteAnalyst Do?
RouteAnalyst continuously monitors acceleration, braking, steering, road bumps, and more to assess your driving and road conditions. After each drive, you get an instant summary and intuitive pie chart of your Safety, Road Quality, Comfort, and Efficiency scores.

As a Premium subscriber, you can access detailed online maps and dashboards to review every event (e.g., harsh braking, potholes, sharp turns) along your route - making RouteAnalyst the perfect tool for anyone who wants to improve their driving or document road conditions.

How to Use (Read Carefully!)
