Edge 25 & Garmin Connect
My bargain Aldi Edge 25 arrived today. Quite happy with the unit but have a couple of initial moans.
1. Am I doing something wrong? Do you really need to enter a code everytime I pair my phone with my 25? All other Bluetooth devices I have remember periferals they've previously paired with. From today's play this doesn't seem to be the case making connections longer wired than I feel is necessary.
2. Could Connect be anymore abtuse? Have the Garmin folks heard of "user friendly"? It just seems a very, very clunky design.
Moan over. If anyone has tips or know where more straight forward guidance than the Garmin manual has on using the unit & site please let me know.
I'm begging you!

I suspect you are right. But no harm in hoping.

Apologies for the oversight there, it's been corrected. Obviously it should have said 97ft🤦♂️

I've got a 25, only had to pair mine the once. Try updating the firmware?
Agree about garmin connect though, I only use it to copy rides over to strava.
My Edge 810 and Galaxy S7 pair up with no issues and had no issues with my Moto G previously. There were the odd occaisons when I had to turn bluetooth off on my Edge than back on for the connection to be made.
I used to have an Edge 25. The first few firmware updates wiped my Bluetooth settings so I had to re-pair with a code. After that it was fine.
