Locating A Lost Garmin Device Using Garmin Connect

Garmin® cannot remotely track, access, or disable lost devices. However, if your Garmin device is missing, there are a couple of things you can check to help locate it.

Check Garmin Connect Account

If your Garmin device was paired with the Garmin Connect™ app on your smartphone, you can check its last sync time via the web version of Garmin Connect. A recent sync indicates the device was within Bluetooth® range of your smartphone and still powered on.

  1. From a web browser, sign into your Garmin Connect account.

  2. Select Home from the left-hand navigation bar.

The Home section will display the date and time of the device's last sync in the top-right corner:
