Starting a GroupTrack Session

Before you can start a GroupTrack session, you must have a Garmin Connect account, a compatible smartphone, and the Garmin Connect app.

2. Pair your smartphone with the Descent device (Pairing Your Smartphone).
3. On the Descent device, hold MENU, and select Safety & Tracking > GroupTrack > Show on Map to enable viewing connections on the map screen.
4. In the Garmin Connect app, from the settings menu, select Safety & Tracking > LiveTrack >> Settings > GroupTrack.
5. Select Visible to > All Connections.
6. Select Start LiveTrack.
7. On the Descent device, start an activity.
8. Scroll to the map to view your connections.

   TIP: From the map, you can hold MENU and select Nearby Connections to view distance, direction, and pace or speed information for other connections in the GroupTrack session.
