Please contact us at [email protected] and we'd be delighted to help you troubleshoot your issue.

Garmin have a guide for removing Connect IQ data fields.

Makes everything what it promises. Very clear and easy to read. I would give 5/5 if user can modify it little bit like change color of data. If it possible you could program that wind arrow to change color green for backwind and red for headwind, so then it is even more clear.

I bought a 1030 Plus and it is not compatible. I can use it with my 1030 but I would also like it to work with my 1030 Plus. Any timeline for the upgrade? Thx.

Just used this DF for the first time yesterday, and it was accurate, timely and useful. I upgraded to routecourse Premium and this DF came with it. Online activation instructions are concise and very helpful. Highly recommended.

Works fine and it is useful. One comment: it would be great if wind speed could be shown as m/s. I'm so used to see wind speed in meters/second. if this option could be seen it would be great

Awful awful unintuitive app. Appalling instructions. Absolutely nothing i can see that shows where it actually is on edge530 one you’ve installed it! Really disappointing waste of time. Dear . Please provide proper clear instructions how to download and install in garmin edge 530. I’ve wasted an hour Of my life and got nowhere! You can do much better than this

Initially had a problem registering application on my 520 Plus. The letter was a ‘Q’ but looked like an ‘O’ on the display. I sent an email to the developer and was quickly informed of wrong letter. Used on my first ride and compared the wind direction indicator to any available flags blowing to compare direction. It was very close if not spot on. It’s good to know the wind speed as well. I’m going to get a lot of use out of this app! Thanks!

Downloaded the data field but when I put it on an activity it keeps popping up with Link Code Next Try -555secs and keeps counting down, I've put the code into the DW account I created.

This sounds like an issue with Garmin's download system though, so you should contact Garmin Tech Support next.

I use routecourse frequently on my Garmin bike computer (5 stars for routecourse!) so downloaded Rain & Wind when I saw it was available. I like it a lot - it's great to see the wind speed and know what it is rather than guessing (mostly guessing wrong). Useful arrow shows headwind, tailwind, crosswind even though obviously you can usually tell. Haven't needed the rain prediction field yet but good information to have. Note that you need to turn bluetooth on for both phone and Garmin computer to get the weather details. Had a question and as usual, reply from Marcus was prompt and helpful.
Sorry, no statistics available yet.
