No "Barometric Pressure Trend" while unit is powered off [Missing Feature 35]
Posted: Tue Nov 04, 2025 3:34 pm
Unit: eTrex Touch (Gen 2, 2025 model), Software Version 4.09
The unit does NOT include the common feature (available for all previous GPS units with a barometric altimeter) "Barometric Pressure Trend" recording. This feature keeps track of and records the barometric pressure while the unit is powered off and is used to forecast weather changes. Yes, the unit does this while powered on but previous units gave one the option to record while the power was turned off. This feature is simply no longer available.
This issue has been reported to Garmin via email. I'll update with their response
