Please use the link 'Contact developer' or our Facebook page (facebook.com/garmin.connect.iq/) to give feedback or ask questions. We do not get notifications from reviews, so we are slower to react to them. _____ Google Directions on your watch. This is a widget and, as such, the watch face will be shown after a period of inactivity. There is no way to avoid it or extend the duration that widgets stay open. If you don't want this behavior, you should download the app: apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/2bd857be-a5db-408c-a0ac-8eaced91da30 _____ The navigation features of this widget are very similar to Maps r.485 and Directions r.485. If you haven't tried them, please check Maps r.485 apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/3f07431a-07fe-474f-bc4c-4097bba106b2 Directions r.485: apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/2bd857be-a5db-408c-a0ac-8eaced91da30 ____ Why so many similar r.485 apps? Two main reasons: 1) CIQ Limitations. The Connect IQ environment doesn't allow apps to use a lot of memory. This constraint is especially tight on older devices. So we split the functionalities into different apps. On some apps you get map images (Maps r.485, Maps + Activity). Other apps show more information and/or allow more customisation (Outdoor Master, Route Planner). 2) Offer navigation features in different app types (Applications, Widgets and Data Fields). Some users prefer to use native apps to record activities. So they can plan routes using r.485 data fields (Route Data Field / Waypoints). Some watches also allow you to access widgets while an app is open. So these users can also use r.485 widgets (Directions Widget, Maps Widget, My Places - Widget). ____ To enter coordinates: "type" the latitude and the longitude (in degrees) digit by digit, separated by a semicolon. Negative numbers are allowed. Both latitude and longitude must contain decimal digits and be between -90.000 and +90.000 (longitude) or -180.000 and +180.000 (longitude). When you finish "typing" the longitude, choose the option * END *. Examples: To enter N 48.858, E 2.294, the input should be "48.858;2.294". Select * END * to finish. To enter N 40.689, W 74.045, the input should be "40.689;-74.045". Select * END * to finish. ________________________________ Unlock via the mobile app: ツ Android ★★★★★ play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.connectiq.r485.mapsr485companion ツ iOS ★★★★★ itunes.apple.com/us/app/id1502830009 (not compatible with Edge, Oregon and Rino devices) ____ Privacy policy r.485 apps do NOT collect or sell any personal information such as your location, your contacts or your calendar. Some r.485 apps, however, offer interfaces on which you can request data from third-party services (e.g. Google, Yahoo). These services may be able to access and collect some of your information on the moment you make a request. r.485 has no influence on this data collection process, does not expose or share your information except when it is strictly necessary (e.g. your location must be known to calculate a route), and will not be responsible for any privacy issues related to you and the third-party services. For more information, please refer to: https://r-485-privacy-policy.blogspot.be _____ Route recommendations may be incomplete and/or inaccurate, and may contain sections of private land and/or sections of terrain that could be challenging or hazardous. Always use your best judgement about the safety of the road and trail conditions and follow traffic and property laws.
