    Hi, great demonstration, thanks! It is sad to me that on my fenix 6 solar I don't have this point of interest around me and map but still I can enjoy with course and sight and go. I would ask about the GPS settings, which settings you set up for better work with the navigation outside?

    • @HowToPM
      @HowToPM  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Petko. The Fenix is just the same as the tactix, you should see the point of interest around you. Maybe you should try to update your maps? Connect it to Garmin Express on your computer you should see options to do it.
      About the GPS setting, I always use the normal one. I never changed the default settings on the GPS.

      Oh I see. I didn't tought the base model had to option to have solar.
      Ultratrac will be the poorest mode as it only record a point from time to time to save battery. I always use normal.
      GPS work everywhere you can see sky.
      Glonass is basicaly a GPS system from Russia and Galileo from Europe.
      All of them work well, some maybe better in some part of the world.

I live in Australia but I recently travelled to Turkey and bought the garmin Tactix delta (love it) but in navigation and I go to to search food and drink or fuel or accommodation it says “search near” and does not pick up anything but it does pick up close cities ! Is there something I’m doing wrong ?

      @HowToPM  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Peter. It is normal. On the new generation of watches, you could download any map directly from the watch over Wi-Fi, but unfortunately on the Delta, you will need to buy the maps of your area from garmin. You can get it here : fave.co/3VmeVUT
      There is some other way to get free maps from open street map, but I never tested it on my devices.

    I tried using the automobile setting while on my motorcycle I thought it would be great to have turn by turn directions on my wrist but all I get is a straight line instead of turn by turn directions for example if I wanted to get on my motorcycle and ride from my house to a restaurant 11 miles away all I get is a straight line connecting my house to my destination how do I get rid of the straight line and make it have turn by turn directions?
