Incident Detection
Incident detection is a supplemental feature primarily designed
for road use. Incident detection should not be relied on as a
primary method to obtain emergency assistance. The Garmin
Connect Mobile app does not contact emergency services on
your behalf.
When an incident is detected by your Edge device with GPS
enabled, the Garmin Connect Mobile app can send an
automated text message and email with your name and GPS
location to your emergency contacts.
A message appears on your device and paired smartphone
indicating your contacts will be informed after 30 seconds have
elapsed. If assistance is not needed, you can cancel the
automated emergency message.
Before you can enable incident detection on your device, you
must set up emergency contact information in the Garmin
Connect Mobile app. Your paired smartphone must be equipped
with a data plan and be in an area of network coverage where
data is available. Your emergency contacts must be able to
receive text messages (standard text messaging rates may
apply).
