Low battery is a pro trolling move. lol
Great video as I found the information I was looking for. Much appreciated.
Thank you, I have the regular instinct and hike a lot ! & was wondering how to use this function heading back to the trail head
will explain,very helpful
And it is solar. That is heaven for who is really lost and run out of battery energy.
offering only traceback and straight line is completely stupid. How about shortest route. That would be the opition one would want, when you dont want to go back the same route, possibly because you just want to get home fast.
@@maxmeier532 The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. Good job.
@@iseabeck9488hahaahhhahhaahhaha
@@maxmeier532then buy a Phoenix 7 for $1500. Simple. And like said above, shortest route from point A to point B is a straight line. 🤦♂️
Thank you for your great videos.
If you are already in trackback mode, is there any way to stop using the trackback function without cancelling the current activity?
Thank you soooooo much, sir
Thanks for the video it was what I was looking for 🙏
Thanks, you answered my needs perfectly. Your video is really useful, I'm going to get one of those.👍
Glad the video helped, thanks for the nice comment!
Nice!
This the same with Esports version also do you know how many locations you can save as well so can get back to them ? and can u also export them off and load them on other watch as i may get fenix 7 when have more funds or get one of the 6 versions ? so be goos to export locations to that if that is also possible
thanks
Thanks
Great video where can I find alerts for off course ?
Thanks very helpfull
Glad it helped, Happy New Year!
When I return to start I go to middle button on left side of watch and scroll down to navigate. This way the watch does not pause.
Lets say Im on a longer day hike route. After a while (but still far from the end point of my day hike) I realize I have gone off trail. So I use the Tracback function until I hit the original route again. Is it then possible to stop the tracback function and continue the original route without losing all my data? Because I assume if you use the discard function after finish Tracback all the data that was collected up until my deviation will be lost, correct?
Once you get back to your original route you could either Save the Activity (so you have it), and then start a new activity from that point (and later make a course using both activities together). Or you could just choose resume late for the first activity. . . . then resume it whenever you want, so that it is all saved under that one activity. As you said you would not want to discard or else you will lose everything. I hope that all makes sense.
Great video, thanks. Lets say I start from point A, reach final point B. Stop and save the activity to take a break for an hour at point B. Now I want to go back to point A from where I started. Can I lookup past activities and go back to point A? Or any other alternative to mark starting point A and and at a later time, track back the activity from destination B to A?
You can navigate back to a saved activity. I have never tried that, but I think it will basically navigate you back to the starting point of a prior saved activity. The other option would be you could stop the activity at point B. . . and choose "Resume Later". Then when you are ready, resume the activity and navigate back to the start (which would essentially be taking you from where you currently are to the start of the activity (Point A). I hope that makes sense and helps.
@@JUMBLE2015 many thanks, yes, this is a great idea to resume later option. Loved your videos to understand my Solar Instinct better, thanks again.
Is there anyway to see how much memory is consumed on the watch or set a warning when memory is getting full, meaning you need to sync it or risk losing it
old reply here, but for anyone finding this and wondering....yup
Is it true that you have to have the garmin app open and running to use the watch?
Not true at all. I hardly ever open Garmin Connect (APP). I basically open it when I want to sync all the information from my watch to my Garmin account (i.e. steps, activities, etc.). Now if you want to get updated weather, cell phone alerts, etc.. . . then you need to keep your watch connected to the phone (but not the Gamin Connect app). Garmin Connect you just connect to sync, see the map of your activity, etc. I hope that helps and makes sense.
Just get rid of my Apple Watch Ultra toy for a Garmin Instinct 2x solar tactical
I used a Apple series 2. It was ok. Battery couldn’t reach the end of the day. 😂 the. I migrated to my wife’s old forerunner 45. I loved it. So I decided to buy my own watch, noticing i didn’t need all the crap colorful no battery gimmicks of Apple Watches… I studied for some weeks and bought the instinct 2x too! It is amazing. I’ve been using it for a week, heavy use- gps, customization, flashlight… the battery already dropped from 70% to 50% in a week! It seems like next month I’ll have to charge it.. 😂😂😂
Please show us one function at a time. So please do not explain any thing else, such as: to trackback:
1. Press GPS button #2.
2. Hit Up or Menu to see Tracback (middle left button #3)
3. Hit Yes or GPS to select button #2.
This watch sucks. Its way too confusing to use
Mentally challenged ei!
I thought it was confusing at first, but after spending a few minutes playing with it, it’s really quite simple. I think what throws people off is no touch screen, and reverting back to buttons.
It’s really not for what it is, if you’re used to touch screens then buy a touch screen
OMG, this comment combined with the name and PFP made me almost spit out my coffee laughing....SO ALPHA BRO! confused by a simple watch with more than one button AAAAHAHAHAHAHA!!
Quintessential alpha boy right here, I hope this is just a hilarious troll comment (props if it is), but either way, Reddit is going to love you XD
