Garmin Smartphone Link Live Services Transfer

 

Hi all,

If I were to purchase live traffic within the smartphone link app using the phone I have now, would I still have the live traffic services when I get my new iPhone next month? Trying to avoid not having to pay for the subscription twice. When I buy the live traffic subscription, does the subscription link to my apple account?

If you are going from an Android to iPhone, yes. Because Google Play can't talk to the App Store to tell it you bought traffic.

If you are going from iPhone to iPhone, your purchase will follow you.

Yup, it's tied to your Google account. If you have more than one cell phone and all use the same Google account, all current and future phones will get the app.

On your new iphone install the app and then open My Account icon.
Select Restore Purchases at the bottom to bring back your subscriptions.
