I have purchased the pro version After installing the application on my Forerunner 955, a message about the bluetooth connection error ( TX ) appears. Of course ...

This app works fine with fenix 3 HR. I hope fenix 7 pro will be compatible soon.

I love this function on my Fenix 5x. But Still no compatibility with Epix Gen 2 Pro. When will the app be updated? Hope it works very soon.....or I have to check out something else.

I have a fenix 6x pro solar and the app works well. I bought an Istinct 2X solar tactical that isn't included in the list of compatible devices not updated in the last year

Navigation good. Display Font too large for Forerunner 55 Heart-Rate ist not available on Smartphone, if Locus runs on Watch. Heart-Rate on Phone is only available with Garmin "Virtual Run".

Great app, but I really miss a setting to switch to metric system on Instinct 2.

I have a premium account on Locus and also purchase the connect IQ app. I knew that the Map on the screen are no longer supported (unless you have no data connection on your phone). It turns out that this is quite annoying as I often want to use the live tracking feature while hiking (ie let people know where I am) hence need data connection on the phone, which render this app useless. When I tested it, the app crashed a few time during "activity" on my Venu 2 which meant that I lost the complete hike tracking mid hike... Sadly, I can't recommend this app and no longer trust it (don't want to lose my track mid course). I will keep using the rather excellent DWMAP app instead (which can show map to the watch while still having a data connection on the phone)!!!

Hi, as you mentioned, maps streaming feature is unfortunately no longer supported due to limits on Garmin side. Our implementation differ from the other one, that it was able to render maps completely offline back in the day. The maps wasn't streamed from the internet but directly from connected phone. If the app crashes, write us mail, that is of course non standard behaviour. In anyway, you NEVER should lost the recorded track. Even when the app crash, recorded activity is immediately saved, so no worry.

Awesome application! Thank you! We have maps and turn by turn guidance offline! After downloading the map offline on the smartphone, you need internet connection only to set the destination and start the navigation on the phone. The route already saved in the application on the phone doesn`t need internet connection and the map is displayed on the watch. You will need only the Bluetooth connection to the smartwatch to navigate through the destination. Downloading the BRoute on the phone allows you to be completely independent from internet connection. Works fine on Fenix 6 solar. Unfortunately, sometimes (not very often) there are interruptions during activity (IQ).

Changing my review as despite the ciq error I can get courses to send over so that's OK for me for now.

On my FR255 the app regularly shows the IQ logo at start. Retrying will sometimes solve this. However sending gpx files will crash the watch into restarting, this was the main functionality i was looking for :(

Hi, FR255 doesn't support importing track to internal storage as mentioned in compatibility table in the manual. Will check why you didn't get proper message about this in the app though. If you still struggling even with occasional IQ logo on the start of the app, please write me on [email protected] .

App crashes on Garmin S62 when changing the settings on the watch. Navigation on the app not always logical (doesn't calculate the fastest/shortest route in a city - but takes unlogical detour).

Works well on Vivoactive 4. Would be even better with support for custom data screens/fields.

Works well on the Instinct 2. The only downside are some texts that are cut due the watch ring.

Using premium version - after first use its always show ciq error. Reinstall helps but only for one run. So i need to reinstall every time :(

On the Instinct - while I'm very thankful for adding support - I get the "IQ" screen after a few seconds of loading the app for the third time, and only reinstalling helped. My watch has plenty of free storage, so that's not the problem. I would happily help solving the issue or provide further information, and I will correct the rating after the fix.

Hi Dániel, thanks for the feedback. Yes, as it showed, compatibility with Instinct2 is now broken and I am analysing the problem. Garmin dev simulator once again doesn't reflect behaviour of real device. :( If you are willing to help with the fix, could you please send me mail to [email protected] ? I will reply with debug version which should generate logs with reason of app crash. Thanks
