I'm surprised that they updated this. I thought the free standing application Garmin Express eliminated the need to go to the website to get updates, register the device, install garage icons, etc. When I've used the website and plugin in recent months, it either just gets stuck spinning indefinitely or it says the files on your device are newer than on the website which leads me to believe that they are pushing Garmin Express and not investing in the MyGarmin dashboard view which uses this plugin. Perhaps there are other uses for it??
The Communicator Plugin helps a browser communicate with a connected device so things like sending waypoints from Google Maps works.

Is this necessary?

At The Next Update
I guess I'll update at the next map update. I have been rather lazy at updating my device lately.
I support the right to keep and arm bears.
It's a Browser Facilitator Too
