This video came at the best time. My 67i just came in the mail today!!

Perfect! Let me know if you have any questions when you start getting into your new 67i. Rick

Still no active weather on satellite with no Bluetooth or cell service?

@outdooremergencytech 7 ай бұрын

I have been able to get active weather when in WIFI but have not checked it recently in cell service. Are you having trouble getting it? Rick

Hello Rick: I want to thank you for this video. I just purchased the 67i but I am new to the GPS universe and especially the crazy Garmin GPS ecoSystem. I am a tech guy but as a newby to GPS I find myself completely lost with the terminology, apps, maps, buttons, synching, satellite subscription, and, especially, the poorly explained and unintuitive Garmin universe of desktop software applications, web pages, map options, and phone apps all of which are needed to use the device effectively! After watching your video I still have miles to go, but I now have a foundation for learning that has cut through the worst of my confusion. I feel comfortable about it now. So, really, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Don't feel bad. I've been using Garmin GPS hand helds since about 2000 and find the 67 a huge step backwards compared to earlier model which did not require searching the 'net and having additional apps etc and all that garbage. The convoluted and slow satellite imagery selection and downloads are a disaster.

Thanks for sharing your experience with the 67i. When it comes to 67i vs the 66i, I find the 67i is much faster and better. Are you referring to models proceeding the 66i? Rick

@user-ur4lv4zh4h 4 ай бұрын

Wow Rick, if you take all in consideration this 67i could be an all in one, GPS, tracking, SOS, navigatie, messenger and (the expensive Garmin watches) flashlight all in a rugged build. I case your phones brakes this could be a life saver

I'm with you 100% and that's why the 67i is my favorite satellite communicator. Rick

Thanks again Rick. Garmin should be paying you.

To bad that will never happen. Actually, I wouldn't want them to pay me, because then they would probably give me a script and tell me what I could and could not say. Rick

Its good to have quick messages if you are doing sport oriented motorcycle trails and you brake your phone screen or you are not carrying any phone with you for example.

Thanks for your videos. About to pull the trigger and buy a 67i. I am now in my 70s, but still quite active. Do several canoe trips in Quetico/Canada and BWCA in U.S.A as well as 1-2 backpacking trips each year in Black Hills, Colorado/Wyoming. I have an ~9 year-old, DeLorme InReach SE that I have used on trips for years and still works for MapShare, messaging but, of course is cumbersome and has no on-screen navigation or other features. Time for an upgrade. My question: When you are out on a multi-day wilderness trip and have the 67i and your smart phone with you on the trip, do you ever use the Bluetooth connection to the phone to do navigation/see maps on the phone? Or is the navigation function/screen/UI on the 67i so good you don’t really need your smart phone to connect to the 67i? Or do you use the Bluetooth connection to the phone mostly for typing messages via the Garmin app as typing messages is so much easier that way? In short, if I am going to have both my phone and the 67i with me on a trip, how much will I use each and in what situations will I use the phone? (Most of the trips I take are out of cell phone coverage areas; I have no service). Asked another way: if I have a 67i, will it be worth lugging along my smart phone? Seems to me I would only use the phone for the ease of typing out messages.

@outdooremergencytech 4 ай бұрын

First, you do have the Bluetooth connection that allows you to use both the device only, or you can use your phone. I like being able to use my phone because the screen is larger and its easier to type out a message, but on a multi-day trip, I don't want to rely on Bluetooth technology or the phones battery. The screen is large enough on the 67i to see everything well and it works great as a standalone device. If I was concerned about weight in my pack, I would have no problem leaving my phone behind, but I always carry my phone for photos plus making phone calls if I do get cell service. It's true, that it's much easier to use your phone to message. What I personally do is have my quick text messages set up so I can select them and don't have to type out a message. When I get to a place on the trail for lunch or am at my campsite, it's not a problem to spend a little more time typing out the message on the device, but usually I fire up my phone and message the easier way. I hope this helps. If I were climbing Mount Everest, I would never take my phone, but if my adventure and space in my pack is not an issue, then I'm definitely taking my phone with me. Let me know if you have any other questions or if I answered your question well enough. Rick

Can it be used on a motorcycle for city navigation ?

@outdooremergencytech Ай бұрын

The Montana 700i and 750i are meant to be used with off-road and city navigation. You can use the 67i for that but it's not the same and it's not as responsive as the Montana. If you're set on using it for turn-by-turn instructions, I would call and talk to Garmin about it first to make sure you're sure or happy with the advice they give you. Rick

So I am planning a trip through the Mexican desert next week. It's about 2.5 hrs off road. I just tried a test course. Then I when to the course and hit menu and I do not see a track back option. I need to be able to save my course in. Then pick that course and follow it out exactly the same route. What am I doing wrong.

@brocwavra8813 Ай бұрын

I just want to want to confirm I am on the map Icon

@outdooremergencytech Ай бұрын

One way to TracBack is from your RECORDING CONTROLS. I have a video where I show creating a course and then using TracBack to see if I get an off-course alert. Go to the 5:29 minute mark in my video link below. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kJN5isRi1dKdmJs.html Let me know if this helps or if you have any other questions. Rick

I’d like to add my GPS location as a priority on the menu somewhere, how can I do that please?

@outdooremergencytech 2 ай бұрын

If you select quit at the bottom of the device, it will move to MESSAGES, where you can then select NEW MESSAGE, then select SEND LOCATION. This is the fastest way to get to messages but it is also on the Main Menu. I know of no other way to make this faster. You may want to contact Garmin to see if they know a faster way to get to SEND LOCATION. I would like to help more so let me know if you have other questions. Rick
