Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

How annoying. I found that my Garmin 235 sometimes didn’t work when I had the syncing on both my phone and iPad so I made sure it was disconnected from my phone and just connected to my iPad. It works every time now.

Extreme solution: buying an old phone on ebay purely for getting data into Connect/Fetch! My theory is an old version of Android will still talk to the devices, also do software update to garmin.
