OK - I give up, how do you use Garmin Connect???

The new user interface is horrible isn't it..

I don't really get the point, as everything beyond the dashboard looks like it always did, just in a dark blue frame!

Still haven't worked out the segments feature: it never finds any segments on any of my rides, which I find a bit difficult to believe.

I auto sync to Garmin when I plug it in, but I actually review the data on Strava as it's interesting to see how I fare on the segments overtime.

Do you use Ghostery on Firefox?

I had the same problem with the connect site on Chrome but once i whitelisted the site in Ghostery it started working fine.

By the looks of the template, I guess they're going all responsive to make life easier for tablet and phone users. There's all sorts of dark arts in sniffing browser/device capabilities. It's also very tempting to skimp on cross browser testing these days "as it's all HTML5 innit".

I've only just started using it (Friday) last week) and it works fine for me.

Easy to set up the widgets/tiles.

I wish that the activities progress data could be widgetised as that is something I look at a lot. I know where to find it but a widget 'shortcut' would be spot on.

This address takes me straight to my dashboard (logged in via saved details) or straight to the sign in page if I logged out on a previous session:

I use Chrome.

I always have the same problem. Hitting F5 / Ctrl+F5 usually sorts it. Bloody annoying.

I only just went back to garmin as a back up for strava, i know which one is easier but i like the way garmin has the ability to sort segments by age etc which i believe is a premium feature on strava .
