Garmin announced on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, a collaboration with Waze that will bring live cyclist alerts to the Waze navigation app. The company said the feature is designed to improve visibility between cyclists and drivers using compatible Garmin devices.

Garmin Ltd. stock last quoted at 259.80 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 18:08 CET on Friday, November 13.

How the cyclist alerts work

Users of a compatible Garmin Edge bike computer or Garmin smartwatch can opt in through Garmin Connect when starting an outdoor cycling activity. Their LiveTrack location can then appear in Waze as an active, moving icon when a driver is nearby.

The location sharing is temporary and session-based. Garmin and Waze said the cyclist's personal information will not be displayed in the Waze app. The feature requires a compatible smartphone and the Garmin Connect app.

The announcement extends LiveTrack, which already lets Garmin users share real-time location, speed and route information with selected contacts. By connecting the service to a navigation platform used by drivers, the partnership gives Garmin's cycling ecosystem an additional safety application.

Product reach before the holiday quarter

Garmin Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing Susan Lyman said the collaboration is intended to give drivers real-time visibility of cyclists. Waze Vice President and General Manager Gai Berkovich described the alerts as a way to encourage drivers to slow down and share the road safely.

For investors, the announcement adds a new partnership and product-use case to Garmin's cycling and wearable portfolio. It does not provide financial guidance or a quantified revenue target, so its commercial contribution will depend on adoption by Garmin users and Waze drivers.
