Removing Widgets?

Unread post by robert »

Does removing Widgets from the 66 with Garmin Express work? I can't get a Widget I loaded onto the 66 to disappear even though it was removed and deleted in Express and then synced?

I have not been able to test this yet... Have you tried contacting the Widget author?

OK sent a note to the developer. But since the adding and removal process is an operating systems \ Express responsibility I would have thought the problem was within there. However software can be a fickle mistress!

Update:

1) If you use Garmin Express it fails to uninstall
2) If you use Garmin Android App it uninstalls correctly

So success of a sort
