Garmin Loneliness!

Jackie9950

I have had a Garmin for about a month and could use some Garmin friends. Anyone interested?

I have a vivosmart!...I have no idea how to add friends, but if you will tell me, I'm up for it :-)

Jackie9950

I believe that if you give me your username on your Garmin I can search for it and add it. It's worth a shot! LOL

alekth

My connections list is pretty empty too. Leave a username for me to add/feel free to add alekth

(Adding people is done via the Connections page, Find people tab.)

I have had a vivofit for a couple of months...no idea how to add friends but my user name is magrat0315.

Also...does anyone know how to edit exercise synced to MFP from a garmin? It seems to always show up as walking or running in MFP even though i edit the activity in the connect app.

If you go in and edit the exercise as soon as you finish in Garmin Connect, you can usual catch it before it syncs to MFP. Sometime I don't get it caught but usually the cals will at least adjust. You can add me to your Garmin Connections as MrsJunkPuncher (it's a family clan name thanks to Xbox & being the only female in a family of boys)

Short of deleting and re-adding it doesn't seem possible to edit the type of activity on MFP. Likely it's sent only once right when it's uploaded and not continuously synced to reflect changes.

edit: oh, it appears you have to be real quick and catch it right away!

Great post! Glad to find some people to connect with

Thanks everyone! I have added everyone who out there ID down. In case you are wondering, Mine is Jvc9950

Also, quick question! I have noticed that when I go to the gym, my Garmin doesn't catch my steps on the treadmill, which I know is because I tend to want to hold on to the bars. Is there a way to edit your steps?

Thanks for the tips on editing activities!

The gym machines interfere with the step counter if you are also using a foot pod. Now cannot edit steps or cardio measurements unfortunately. But you can edit mileage and calories sometimes. I'm aaliceinw if you would like to add me. I'm not very active right now because I have my foot in a moon boot.

Found you!

Yay!! I have a friend! ) Once I figure out how to work this app, I'll add a photo...until then, it makes me look like I am a running stick figure. Or falling on my face.
