Hello,
I just realized that my running partners are not seeing the streets that I completed recently when they look at my map. They can see my older ones, but those from approximately the last month are missing. I have not changed anything in my settings.
Any idea why?
Yeah, it’s your privacy level.
Head into your settings page (linked from the top right menu) & review the Privacy
options (on the left side of the page on desktop & in the first block near the top of the page on mobile).
Just in case - Garmin doesn’t send me any privacy information for activities, so if your account is set to “Per Activity” then I really have no choice but to mark those as “Just Me”.
Thanks @JamesChevalier. It is indeed set to “Per Activity”. Would “Everyone” be the correct choice if I want anybody to see all of my activities?
Yeah, that’s right:
Everyone: Completely public
One last question, will this be retroactive or only apply to future activities?
It’s retroactive. When you update that selection, I kick off a background job that updates all of your activities with the new setting. Because it’s done in the background job system, it could take some time to complete - but that queue is completely clear right now, so it should be quite fast.
Additionally, after the activities are updated the advanced LifeMap is regenerated - that can take a few seconds or 45mins+ depending on how many activities you have.
Awesome, thanks a lot!
