Garmin Tracker?

 
Sun, 06/22/2014 - 10:55pm

Hello all,

So I have my Garmin 3597 and I have a Android and my Wife has an iPhone. I noticed that when I have my droid connected via Bluetooth to the Garmin I see an app called Tracker. I tried it and it's kinda cool. However, when I connect my Wife's iPhone to the Garmin, I don't see that same application. Am I doing something wrong or is this a limitation that Apple enforces?

TIA.

Available Android and Apple

On Garmin's app page, they list the Tracker app for Android and Apple (bottom of the page.)

http://www8.garmin.com/apps/

However, they say it's only for the GTU 10 device (which service providers will discontinue 2G access by Jan 1 2016)

GTU 10?

I understand that the GTU device will be discontinued in 2016; however, I'm talking about the Garmin 3597 (automotive) GPS device.

the application is visible and functional with a Android phone however when I use my Wife's iPhone, I don't see that app as being available....

I'm just going by the info on Garmin's page. They say the Tracker app ONLY works with the GTU10. According to you, it also works with the 3597. Garmin says it is available on the Apple store. Go to the Apple app store and download the app.

for the iPhone version.

Seems to work on my Samsung s4 and a Nuvi 3597.
