For compatible navigators, the Garmin Drive app provides real-time information for traffic, parking, advanced weather, and photoLive traffic cameras, in addition to the ability to send and receive calls, texts, and notifications from your Bluetooth-enabled mobile device.
For compatible dash cams, the Garmin Drive app provides quick access to camera controls, settings, and recorded footage.

Stream the audio (music and other responses) from your vehicle’s stereo when you connect Garmin Speak to your stereo using Bluetooth® or AUX.
Older Bluetooth-capable Garmin navigators are compatible with the Garmin Smartphone Link app, and older Wi-Fi-enabled Garmin dash cams can access video footage through the Garmin VIRB app.

Useless app. There is little to no functionality in combination wit the Zumo XT. The search function doesn't find anything at all or find options that are in totally different countries. That is basically all the functionality there is, and it sucks. This feels like a very lazy attempt at making an app.

Completely useless app with no additional value for the Garmin. Being happy with my Garmin Drivesmart 55, I was more looking for a feature to get the tracklogs of the Garmin to a phone/tablet without using the USB-cable. So I tried this, but to no avail. But once having it installed I played around a bit and was soon wondering why someone would want to use this app ? There isn't much difference in getting a destination apart from having an extra keyboard; it can't even open a contact to retrieve its address and go there, not a map location without keying it in separately, let alone just GPS position for which there is no name. And weird is it continuously said it was connecting to the phone, wihle the Garmin said it was connected (and that was true, just cancelling the connection attempt made it all work).

Could do a better job with more details. Pretty much only get basic instructions that you send to the device rather than being able to fully review. No route information is shown. Just the location on the map that you send to the device. No way of knowing after said if you want to go back and review. No indication how things will be ordered if you add them like the ability to add something as a next stop. It's pretty minimal
