Head-to-head comparison
Flip My Performance vs Garmin Connect
Garmin Connect is locked to Garmin. FlipMP works with everything.
Garmin Connect is an excellent platform for Garmin device owners. But the moment you step outside the Garmin ecosystem — a run tracked on Apple Watch, a ride on Zwift, strength training logged in another app — Garmin Connect doesn't see it.
