They may have fixed it!! It seems you can choose to NOT sync your routes between unit and the Tread App. It is nice to have notifications without having an app mess with your preplanned routes. We'll see. They may also not overwriting your routes without your knowledge. More tests will be necessary. Fingers crossed.

When do you plan to fix what was broken with last update? App was helpful but no longer connects to device and started pushing "need to connect" notifications to the app in the middle of the night.....? Yes, I read all the "help" items on the device/Garmin website. Until the last update connecting was solid/automatic. Please fix. Thanks.
Won't connect to new tread. After a few times trying, account is locked. Support chat is slow and clueless. After several days trying, thinking of returning the GPS tread 2 I loaded this ap for. At least their software has been consitent over the years. ( it sucks)
I always have problems trying to sync explore data. fix your connectivity problems soon
Will not properly sync Explore data with my Tread device. The last update is terrible. I have gotten two replacement units and sent in countless help tickets and app reports. Going on THREE MONTHS of problems!!! Garmin hardware support is out of ideas, software support has yet to do anything. Expecting resolution soon, I made a route in the app to then use on the newest device. The route is gone from the Tread App, but is on the Exlpore App. There is an obvious problem with the Teead app.
a bit buggy, it does work most of the time
Easily replaces all motorcycle route apps out there and doesn't have subscription fees. Keep it up Garmin.
great app, easy to use. used it to find a trail I struggled finding, plotted the route, saved it, and found the trail!
excellent. It's super easy to find a location on my phone and share it to the GPS
it takes a bit of getting used to but when you do I think it's very useful.
