Changing from syncing from Strava to Garmin

Hi I’m thinking of changing my syncing method from Strava to Garmin.
If I do that does it bring my full Garmin history into Intervals.icu thus replacing the Strava ones. The reason I’m asking is that my Garmin history is a complete mess with missing and/or duplicate workouts (recorded on different devices and platforms simultaneously).

By default it will only bring in new activities. So it is safe to turn on. You can change the date in the Garmin box in /settings.

Thanks David I’ll give it some thought. I may the same issue linking Xert to Garmin GPS though.

One comment on changing from Strava to Garmin, I now notice that I don’t see the Strava Segments anymore after switching to Garmin sync. I do like looking at this data, is it possible to sync from Garmin, but also get the Segment information from Strava for the same activity? That way you get the best of both worlds? Cheers

I have that on the todo list and will hopefully get it done soon.

Found this old thread as I’ve just moved to syncing first from Garmin before Strava (to get some of the data Strava strips out, like L/R power balance). However now, even though the Strava name is on the ICU activity, the elevation correction and segments aren’t there. Am I doing something wrong or has this never been fixed? Many thanks.
