Garmin adds AI and a subscription tier to its app
Garmin adds AI and a subscription tier to its app
It’s a reversal from Garmin’s previous stance toward paywalls, but at least existing features and data remain free.

Oh no, good thing gadgetbridge exists
AFAIK gadgetbridge is not even close to a replacement WRT functionality? Last I checked it only supported basic data import, has that changed?
My Forerunner 165 is well supported, nearly the same as the official app.
What features are you missing?
You cant use it to create or manage workout plans. It is feature complete for the health data as far as I can tell (HRV, sleep, etc).

Bummer, that's a pretty significant reason for owning a sports watch I would say, probably one of the most important features actually.
Is workout tracking feature complete?
Yes workout tracking works fine, not quite as polished as Connect but it is functional.
It depends of how well supported a specific model is
I just tried it with my Fenix 6 and it does not appear to work at all despite being listed as partially supported. My watch can't even be discovered by the app, even after factory resetting it and removing all of the Garmin apps from my phone.
That's a shame. I'll go back to wearing my mechanical watch for a while, I think.
