I have the Garmin alpha and explore apps. Both good and a little different. They are paired to my alpha 300 and the collar.

Hold it.
Are you telling me I didn't have to buy the handheld and instead I could be using an app on my phone?

My husband has his collars paired with his Garmin watch. That's about all I know, lol...

That I don’t know. I pair my handheld to my phone. Would’ve saved me $1000 to skip the handheld so I doubt it.

That's why I was asking. I doubt it too...

You can pair your Garmin through the explore app. Your collar or collars will appear on the app but it has to go through the handheld.
Unless there’s something new I haven’t figured out you have to have a handheld to run the collars

Explore won’t show waypoint names. At least I can’t get it to. The alpha app won’t go into landscape mode. I’m trying to avoid buying the drive track or the new big screen and want to pair it to an iPad potentially.
