Navigation is where the 1000 level Edge units shine, and the 1030 Plus is no different. Garmin now includes free detailed maps for nearly every region in the world. With double the internal storage of its predecessor, you get phone-free turn-by-turn routing, course creation and round-trip routing for nearly anywhere on the planet, right from your handlebars. When connected to the Garmin Connect™ app, features like Trendline™ show you the most popular routes, anywhere Garmin users ride. Real-time Strava segment integration speaks to your competitive side, displaying nearby segments, showing how you compare to your PR and the current KOM or QOM. Live Tracking continues to evolve, now displaying not only where you have been but also where you are going. Through the free Garmin Connect app, you can receive texts, social media alerts, emails, download training plans and personalize daily workouts, review activities, keep an eye on the weather and more.
