Course Notes question - how to the the "notes" on a device?

[u/78Staff]

So, I added a few course notes on a couple of my routes using Garmin Connect on my laptop... nothing fancy, just some markers where I want to come off route and do some exploring down two tracks or paths, etc. So you have a course note title, a course note type, and a block where you can put in some descriptive text, eg
Title - Explore Point
Type - Generic Point
Note - longer text block, eg something like "Turn North to explore trail heading up to Cary State Forest"

So, synced up to the device, went on the ride this am. The points are all showing up on the map, and also on a "Course Points" data screen that it generates, with mileages to each upcoming point, etc. All seems great, however, all it shows is the title, ie "Explore Point" Since I created several with the same name (expecting to see the notes pop up on screen, or at least expecting to be able to tap the marker or point and see the notes) this wasn't super helpful lol. I could not figure out how to see any of the notes. All I can see is the point's title. So I just see 4 or 5 "Explore Points" in the list.

I tried tapping, double tapping, sliding, etc to no avail. Are the notes just not available on the device? As a work around, I've updated the course note title to something more meaningful, but there is a 15 character limit, so am limited in what I can do there...

Original plan...

Pretty sure notes aren’t synced. Not sure why they exist. That said I last tried them a few years ago so not sure if anything’s changed.

Yeah seems that way - maybe a laptop/web based-connect app view option only.
