The point I was trying to make was that a lot of people will buy a Garmin for that feature and not realize that it requires your Garmin to be connected to your phone the whole time Live Track is being used. So if you want to use your phone and keep a full charge for emergency calls, you can't use this feature for long rides or if you do, you will exhaust quite a bit of battery power and defeat the purpose of why you carry your phone.
