1. It worked well until Android evolved and the App lost connectivity with the Garmin Echo HD (the Bluetooth does not find the device anymore) I don't understand why Garmin keeps doing this with their products: they abandon the projects and leave customers with a 100us$ hardware good for nothing 😡 How hard would be to just follow up the Android evolution and update the App?It's a great app.

2. Too bad Garmin does not update it to fix communication issues.Can't find official cable anywhere, it doesn't connect to my OBD2 scanner.

3. All support for the cable has been taken off the garmin website alsoGarmin App no longer works with the newer Android phones.

4. Garmin claims it was because the Bluetooth plugin didn't sell, but as I always tell Garmin reps, it helps to advertise something which Garmin didn't.

5. Garmin should release it to the public domain to devs interested itWithout the now dead hardware unit this needs more thought.

6. It is sad that it has been discontinued... so I gave it away with my car I just sold.App works fine but says I do not have the cable, also unable to update the cable via the sat nav or the mechanic app.

7. Even some models of Garmin GPS supported the Bluetooth plugin.

8. Terrible development .Although "Written for an earlier version of Android", it does work still on my Galaxy S10+.

9. Sad that such useful tools were abandoned by Garmin.Excellent App.

10. It used to be wonderful paired with my nuvi but that doesn't work anymore either.

11. Fuel economy gives you speed and vice versa.
