Comments on Smartphone Link for Android

★★★★★ Not getting my text msgs on my Garmin unit since the last update last wk
★★★★★ Use Google to copy/paste. Obviously people using this are not using it properly. I have 690,XXX miles using Google n paste n not a single issue.
★★★★★ Update 2025-01-29: Finally data (tracks) transfer works again, Android 14. A new bugs has been introduced - (1) at the bottom of the screen it displays "Last connected..." regardless of the device connection status, (2) after the GPX track has been sent to the device, app keeps "spinning" with label "Sending...". Luckily these two are less annoying than the previous.
★★☆☆☆ Doesn't work with the gps I bought it with in 2018 any more it won't share links from Google Maps to my gps like it used to... this app is useless to me now
★★☆☆☆ Latest update broken smart notifications' functionality. Fix? Also generally it looks loke old school app
★★☆☆☆ What ever you did on the lastest update causes my GPS and phone to constantly connect and disconnect from the smartphone link app and when it is connected it shows last connection instead of the name of the device it's supper annoying and because of it the traffic updates don't show up cuz it's disconnected... This on top of the Deepcar 785 always freezing and restarting don't think I'll buy another Garmin truck GPS if your stuff doesn't work half the time
