Yes. Garmin states that the Garmin Catalyst app is required for the Garmin Catalyst 2. Install it on a compatible smartphone or tablet to see lap times, leaderboards, session summaries, graphs and your top three opportunities for improvement after each session.
The app also adds video overlays, such as a track map, speed, delta time and a G-G traction circle, and exports 1440p videos with those overlays. Sharing to social media needs an internet connection. The Garmin Catalyst R1 racing radar uses its own app, the Garmin Catalyst Radar app.
