★★★★★Oct 21, 2026

Beautiful peace needs the waze app integrated.

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

to specifically come on this app which I hardly do. and leave a review says a lot how frustrating this app and product has gotten . I've been using Garmin for years and it's sad how disappointing this product has gotten. app connection is absolute trash and the camera glitches way more. like how do u actually go backwards? how do you start with a proper product and app and gibe this to your customers. the camera chooses when to record as well. I always have to make sure it's recording. stay away

★★★★★Oct 20, 2026

I am unable to complete the setup to Garmin Smartdrive w/Alexa due to a bug. When I'm trying to connect to Amazon, I get a black screen. The media does not show on device due to this. My other phone worked well.

★★★★★Oct 18, 2026

Permissions taken by app that cannot be disabled. Read Call Logs, Read Your Contacts, Access Precise Location, Physical Activity, Query all Packages, have full network access, etc etc etc. How is this not spyware?

The Garmin Drive app is continually working to improve your experience and help simplify your drive. This version includes bug fixes to improve device functionality, as well as features to support new Garmin devices.

Store description

The Garmin Drive™ app is a simple and convenient app solution for the latest Garmin automotive navigators and dash cams. Visit garmin.com/driveapp for a list of compatible devices. For compatible navigators, the Garmin Drive app provides real-time information for traffic, parking, advanced weather, and photoLive traffic cameras, in addition to the ability to send and receive calls, texts, and notifications from your Bluetooth-enabled mobile device. For compatible dash cams, the Garmin Drive app provides quick access to camera controls, settings, and recorded footage. Up to four dash cams can be wirelessly connected with the Dash Cam Auto Sync feature to provide comprehensive coverage around a vehicle, offering various viewpoints recorded by the multiple cameras. The Garmin Drive app can create a “picture-in-picture” video from any two perspectives at the same time, making it easy to review video and also share videos with friends, insurance agencies, or legal authorities. Garmin Speak™ with Amazon Alexa brings what you love about Amazon Alexa to your vehicle. Just ask Alexa to hear music, news, and more. Also, enjoy Garmin turn-by-turn navigation. Stream the audio (music and other responses) from your vehicle’s stereo when you connect Garmin Speak to your stereo using Bluetooth® or AUX. Older Bluetooth-capable Garmin navigators are compatible with the Garmin Smartphone Link app, and older Wi-Fi-enabled Garmin dash cams can access video footage through the Garmin VIRB app.
