About:
Garmintools provides a command-line interface to communicate with Garmin Forerunner GPS watches and fitness devices. It enables users to download activity data, manage device settings, and transfer files directly from the terminal. This tool is essential for developers and athletes who need programmatic access to their Garmin device data.
Key Features:
  • Download GPS workout data and activity logs
  • Transfer files to and from Garmin devices
  • Command-line interface for scripting and automation
  • Support for multiple Forerunner device models
Use Cases:
  • Automating the backup of workout data from Garmin watches
  • Integrating Garmin device data into custom fitness analytics pipelines
  • Managing device files and settings without Garmin's official desktop software
Alternatives:
  • garmin-connect-export – Web-based tool that exports data from Garmin Connect cloud, whereas garmintools interfaces directly with the device hardware.
  • gpsbabel – General-purpose GPS data converter that supports many formats, but lacks direct Garmin device communication features.
