To say that Garmin has bothered its users with its new subscription service would put it gently. The company recently announced Garmin Connect+, a new premium level paid for its Connect application that presents some new and brilliant features of payment walls, including ideas with AI and a performance board for all the best Garmin watches.
It has not dropped well. Thousands of Garmin’s furious fans have led Reddit for the news, demanding that customers take a position.
The uproar has been so intense that he could have lost what the subscription implies, so if he has at least a little curious or happily, he would give him a free evidence, this is what he obtains from Garmin Connect Plus for $ 6.99 / £ 6.99 / AU $ 12 per month or $ 69.99 / £ 69.99 / AU $ 120 Annual.
1. Active intelligence
Garmin Connect+ gets training ideas with AI. Garmin says that he will obtain personalized suggestions based on health and activity data. The previous views show friendly summaries about their dream, drums and more. As expected from AI, ideas, according to reports, will improve over time. Here is an example:
He fell 1 hour and 23 minutes below his need for sleep, but he still managed to load his battery 57 points. You are ready to exercise today, but balance it with rest to avoid background.
2. Performance panel
Connect+ presents an integral view of training data, available on the website, which allows you to compare your physical condition and health data over time. Examples exhibited include their comparison of execution duration, time in energy areas, average rhythm and distance over time.
3. Live activity
Your smartphone will now give you heart rate in real time, rhythm, representatives and videos for your interior training (such as strength and yoga) when combined with a compatible smart watch.
4. Exclusive Coaching Guide
As Garmin Run Coach or Garmin Cycling Coach uses, he will obtain an expert coaches orientation, including educational content and videos.
5. Improved livetrack
Starting an activity on a compatible device will now notify your friends and family through the text, and you can create a personalized livetrck profile page so that people follow them.
This seems to have changed the existing text function for Garmin users, and we have some concerns that this could have pushed some of the existing liverktrack characteristics behind a payment wall. We have communicated with Garmin to confirm.
6. Social characteristics
Finally, social characteristics include exclusive badges, some of them are worth a greater number of points and badges of badges that you can use to customize your profile.
Not much?
The Garmin Connect+ subscription is not greatly expensive, but it is not cheap either. As you can see, he does not get a huge amount for his money, and Garmin has not presented exactly on the details about these characteristics; This is really all the information we have at this time.
As such, we may obtain more detailed information about some of these characteristics in the next few days and weeks.
On paper, Garmin Connect+ looks quite thin, and although that is not the main reason why people oppose their deployment, I must imagine that it is a factor.
