Garmin specializes in GPS technologies for automotive, aviation, marine, outdoor, and sports activities. Its various wearables, such as activity trackers and smartwatches, work with Garmin Connect, a tool for tracking, analyzing, and sharing health and fitness activities from your Garmin device. FitTrend is excited to announce support for Garmin wearables and devices.
You can easily enable Garmin support within FitTrend. First, select Garmin within the FitTrend Connection Manager, then follow the on-screen instructions to grant FitTrend permission to import your Garmin data. That’s it!
