User Reviews

Users like the app for real-time dog location and distance data and the maps, and praise Garmin support. However, reliability issues (pairing, syncing, disconnects), inconsistent map visibility and data (green screen, missing data, saved tracks), feature regressions and app fragmentation (removal of options, no saved-tracks on map, no watch/CarPlay), and missing unit options (yards) dominate feedback. Core improvements needed: reliability, complete mapping/features across devices, and consistent unit options.

Pros

Real-time dog location and distance tracking on the map provides peace of mind.
Easy-to-use app with usable maps.
Notable improvements and updates that users notice over time.
Strong Garmin brand support and customer service.

Cons

Frequent reliability problems including pairing, syncing, and device disconnects.
Map visibility/accuracy is inconsistent: green satellite view, missing dog/handheld data, and saved tracks not displaying.
Missing features and app fragmentation: removal of tracking options, inability to view saved tracks on the map, and lack of watch/CarPlay support.
Unit options for distance are missing; users want yards (requested repeatedly).
