um Jul 2020 10:06am, 24 Jul 2020 3,019 posts	0 um Very glad I switched to my 735 at the end of last year. Easy connect & load in Fetch. My ANT based 610 may have been difficult. I don't know if I ever got to that without Garmin Express.

mattglen_ Jul 2020 10:19am, 24 Jul 2020 144 posts	0 mattglen_ I use an app called RunGap, which sends can send activities from one logging place to multiple others. For example I use it to send running data from my Apple Watch to Garmin Connect so I can make use of the Garmin auto upload on Fetch, as Fetch doesn’t handle Apple (yet?). However if Garmin is down, the app becomes pretty redundant...
