We’re thrilled to announce a new feature as part of our Garmin Connect connected account integration! This feature is designed to enhance your experience and give you more control over your activity data. Here’s what you can expect:
Backup Your Completed Activities to Dropbox
Now, you have the option to back up your completed activities and workouts saved in Garmin Connect. Whether it’s a workout recorded by a Garmin device or uploaded from a third-party source, you can securely store them in your Dropbox account. This ensures that your valuable activity data is safe and accessible whenever you need it.
Backup will be saved into Dropbox -> Apps -> BreakAway -> GarminBackup
Choose What to Backup
We understand that not all activities are the same. With this feature, you can select whether to back up all your activities or only specific ones, such as virtual activities (like virtual runs or rides) that are recorded from non-Garmin devices. This flexibility allows you to manage your data efficiently.
Sync Activities to Other Connected Accounts
In addition to Dropbox backup, you can also enable the sync of your completed activities from Garmin Connect to other connected accounts, such as Intervals.icu. This seamless integration ensures that your data is available across platforms for a more comprehensive fitness tracking experience.
Choose What to Sync
While syncing activities to connected accounts, we recommend selecting specific activities. For instance, it’s ideal to sync virtual activities (recorded on non-Garmin devices) to connected accounts like Intervals.icu, as they may not be relevant for all your fitness goals.
Access to Original FIT Files
By enabling the backup of Garmin activities into Dropbox, you gain access to the original FIT files. This means you can subsequently upload these FIT files to any other fitness platforms of your choice. This flexibility allows you to use your data in various ways, empowering you to make the most of your fitness journey.
With these new features, we aim to give you more control, flexibility, and convenience when managing your activity data. Your fitness journey just got a whole lot more adaptable and secure.
To get started, simply follow the instructions in the “Connected Accounts for Garmin Connect” section of the BreakAway app, and take full advantage of these new capabilities.
If you have any questions or need assistance, feel free to reach out to our support team. We’re here to make your fitness experience as seamless as possible. Enjoy your workouts, and stay connected with BreakAway!
Once you’ve enabled Garmin Connect and authenticated, presuming that you already have either Dropbox or Intervals.icu connected, you will see a “Sync Now” button. Pressing this will start the process of backing up your last 10 activities.
