Bub Marley Posted March 8, 2016 Share Just go here: https://tapiriik.com/# Then create a GC account and it will sync it up with strava, so you can pay for your watch. Mine has been set like this from the start as strava was so unreliable syncing to discovery. Real non issue.Dont you need a garmin for a gc account?

Pure Savage Posted March 8, 2016 Share Tapiriik What is this tapikiik you talk of and why have you not posted a link to the site before? Captain Fastbastard Mayhem, Latent_Blue and shaper 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garrethk Posted March 8, 2016 Share Great, so in essence you can exploit the same vulnerabilities in Strava as before, but now it appears to be coming from a Garmin. Wonder what Discovery will do about that? If they cotton on, they might stop support for Garmin, or get Garmin to find a way to block it. Would be peeved if I went and spent R7k on a Garmin to find Discovery drop support for it. nonky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a way to screen to data and only allow the heart rate one. Even a way to flag dodgy rides. Something like KOMDEFENDER.COM Discovery just need to sort out their apps and IT Frosty and nonky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garrethk Posted March 8, 2016 Share IMO, Strava should have a flag that indicates the source of the data and Discovery uses that flag to determine if it will recognize the data. nonky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until such time as the data is verifiable, it cannot be used... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor Buttox Posted March 8, 2016 Share IMO, Strava should have a flag that indicates the source of the data and Discovery uses that flag to determine if it will recognize the data.I don't understand how this isn't possible. I am by no means a computer guru, but that is one of the most basic aspects of any database - a free field that could be used to distinguish a manual upload. FWIW, in my circle, The people who will stop using this if appear to be the Average Joe's and Josephines who have taken the simplicity of the system and used it. Disco has the resources to solve this and should not be transferring the responsibility to clients if their intention is to maintain fitness levels and save medical related costs. (Or should have delayed implementation until they found the verifying solution) Unfortunately, it seems to me that the revision is a bit ill-conceived. My 2c. Hope I'm wrong.

Bub Marley Posted March 8, 2016 Share Wonder how long it's gonna take Discovery to latch onto this tapiriik scenario and disband gc as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Savage Posted March 8, 2016 Share Wonder how long it's gonna take Discovery to latch onto this tapiriik scenario and disband gc as well. They will then just disband the whole program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
