Disconnecting from Smartphone Link

You can temporarily disconnect or permanently unpair your phone. Your device does not receive data from the Smartphone Link app while your phone is disconnected.

  1. Select Apps > Smartphone Link > Options.
  2. Select your phone name.
  3. Select an option:
    • To temporarily disconnect your phone from your device, clear the Smartphone Link check box.

      When you want to receive Smartphone Link data again, you must select the check box to enable your device to connect to Smartphone Link.

    • To permanently unpair your phone from your device, select Unpair device.

      Your phone is no longer authorized to connect to your device. If you want to connect to your phone in the future, you must pair your phone and device again.

If you unpaired your phone, you should open your smartphone Bluetooth® settings and remove your Garmin Drive™ device from the list of paired devices. This can help to prevent problems if you want to pair the devices again in the future. See your smartphone owner's manual for more information about removing paired devices.
