Some last site updates in 2023

Calendars


The badges calendar now supports the userId parameter (just like the challenges calendar). If you add that parameter it will only show the badges you can take. Note that the repeatable badges will always show.
Example calendar URL to show my badges (my userId is 286): 
https://garminbadges.com/calendar/badges?userId=286

Badge count for repeatable badges

If you view a badge and click the link "[View users with badge]" you will get to page with all users that got that badge. The count for each user is now added as a new column.

Estimated finish date for Expeditions

In the latest update for the Chrome Extension and Python Script the join date for the expeditions are fetched from Garmin. That makes it possible to calculate a finish date for the expeditions. It will use your current progress and time from the join date and from that extrapolate the finish date. You can also see your join date which is displayed as "Start Date".
The expeditions are found in the challenges page. You will get your own challenges page if you upload your data.

I'm on my last hike expedition,"Appalachian Trail", and today they estimate is that I will finish it in 203 days! Here is my challenges page: https://garminbadges.com/challenges.php?userId=286

    Can I ask how some users have won certain badges 250 times when its a certain day badge that has only been available for 3 years? E.g. the Most Impressive darth vader badge is only available on 4th May and has been available only since 2019, yet some people already have it the max 250 times. Just curious how they managed it

      Тези значка, за която се чудиш, може да бъде спечелена повече от един път за деня. Колкото дейности запишеш на тази дата, толкова пъти ще спечелиш значката

    Can you explain what filtering the userId does in the calendar? For example does it take my current country in account? Does it know what watches I own? Etc...

      For challenges it will show only the challenges you have joined.
      For badges it will remove all badges that you already got except for the repeatable that you can take again.
      It will not filter for country or watches. Maybe that can be features for the future.

    Andy, I added the calendars to my son's google calendar and his first question was if it exists in Hebrew. And then I checked and I suppose the data is available in all the languages that is supported by Garmin, because when I change the system settings of my phone to Hebrew then indeed all the badges have their name in Hebrew. Is that data available to you? Can you add another parameter for the language?

      The site got no language support today so it will require a lot of work to implement that. I'm currently planning the new site and will try to add language support.

Dance Fitness has arrived

Image
Five new badges are here. Garmin accidentally added them in September but they were quickly removed. In September there were 13 badges so we will probably soon see even more badges added. Garmin has added a new activity type "Dance Fitness" in the Gym & Fitness Equipment category so you can switch to that for all your dance fitness activities. I don't see the new type in Garmin Connect app on Android so it will need to come in an update. In the web it is already there. To add songs for the Mixtape badge you press the lap button. Each lap will add another song. Until we get Dance Fitness on the watches you can log with Cardio and press lap for each song. After save and sync you switch activity type in Garmin Connect to Dance Fitness. Garmin Badge Database Garmin Connect Change country setting

The Tournament of badges - New badges will come soon!

Image
Update 2023-08-10 The winner is "30 for 30" and it will go live September 1. Description "Record an activity of at least 30 minutes every day for 30 consecutive days." ---- Update 2023-08-02 There has come some more info now. Check out Garmin's Instagram:  https://www.instagram.com/garmin/ There is a story where you cast your vote for which badge that will win.. Link to the Story Exactly what that means is a bit unclear. Will only one of the listed badges go live? Maybe some of the other badges will come later on... Only time will tell. ---- We will very soon see a bunch of new badges that I just found out about. No idea when they will go public. Note that these badges got no time limit. Some of them will be really really hard. Swim streak will probably be the toughest for me. In general I think that the streak badges are the hardest since you can't miss a single day and life often makes you do that. Sleep Savant Receive sleep data for 30 consecutive days. S
