  • LiveTrack is no longer working because I refused to give Garmin access to my contacts. Fucking fucks, my options are paying for Strava or giving up the data of everyone in my address book. It was still working ~two weeks ago, mind.

  • This update caught me out on a recent audax, when an app glitch meant I couldn't grant access – it wasn't in the Privacy list. Fixed by reinstalling at home.

    However, I'm not sure this permission request means Garmin is hoovering up your contacts list by default – it may just be a case of complying with iOS permissions, since the app needs your contacts for sharing LiveTrack updates and Apple is careful about such things. I may just being charitable with this, though...

  • It worked without the permission first, though.

    I guess I'm extra skeptical today because the Intel driver update thingy was casually asking permission to track everything on my laptop.
