Ratings and Reviews
App sympathique
L application complete bien la montre.
Revamp not good
As always, needs are different. In my case I need the app mostly for running, cycling, hiking and a tad of fitness. So far, so good. I’m an amateur, maybe an enthusiast to some level.
What I‘m looking for in a an app is that it‘s easy to use. I don‘t mind if you have a kind of advanced app, but the first approach should always be ease of use. If it isn‘t there, then I just skip that app. Simple as that. But since I own a couple Garmin products, it‘s not that easy…Whilst the old app had a dashboard which maybe was a bit too simple for some folks, it gave you a very easy look at the latest activity and some basic metrics, pretty graphic at first glance and then a tad cluttered if you were scrolling, but still alright. And you could still dive deeper if you liked too.
Now you have tons of customization, which I personally didn‘t ask for (heck, there‘s a reason I choose Apple products!) but the final result is still inferior to the old app. Ease of use is key!
Hate is a strong word but I really, really dislike the new ui. If I hadn‘t a bunch of Garmin products, this really would be a reason to at least take a look at what other brands do.
I like to say that this is my opinion, ymmv and your opinion too, but with that ui in place, I‘ll hold the app at 1 star.
