Using the Instant Keyboard in the Garmin Connect App

Some Garmin watches with Real Time Settings have an Instant Keyboard feature that uses the Garmin Connect™ app to make typing on the watch much easier.

• Entering a password when adding a Wi-Fi network

• Entering a name when creating a course on the watch
