-
Dalton DeVore (@livestrong829) reportedThe @GarminFitness venu 3 is by far the biggest piece of **** I’ve ever purchased.
-
Mark Milligan (@MarkMilliganDPT) reportedOk @GarminFitness users. Need some tech problem solving. Turn on Fenix 5. Start jogging, heart rate is not accurate. Stop mid run cause it is frustrating. Stop Garmin. Turn off and back on. Put on wrist, heart rate is accurate. Software is up to date. Please help! #running

Marty (@Marty_FTT) reported@amymitchellart @GarminFitness @scrippsresearch Vivosmart 5 had a known module-pop issue, the pill literally ejects from the band. Garmin should warranty it even out of window given the research use. If you want zero risk of repeat, Venu Sq 2 or Vivoactive 5 are sealed cases instead of the slide-in pod.

murph (@BostonLooper) reportedApple Watch SE is officially in the trash - died ~60% of the way through a half marathon yesterday, @GarminFitness here I come
-
Bean & Bean Cotton (@Bean_Cotton) reported@GarminFitness Done. As a rule, an update that takes away a simple, easy to use feature and requires you to go to another app is a poor update.
-
Laura Perttula (@LauraPerttula) reported.@GarminFitness @Garmin is there a reason why the "confidence" metric is even in your 5K Garmin Coach plan? Can I just run without you ranking whether you think I'm going to be successful? I do not find it helpful or motivating. I'm a longtime, but slow, runner rebuilding.
-
Thefodfather (@thefodfather155) reported@GarminFitness Can you fix your shipping issues to help get the watch I ordered. Ninja shipped a whole food processor in 2 days and you can't get me a watch inside a week.
-
Quin Bond (@njergonomics) reported@MarkMilliganDPT @GarminFitness The wrist sensor can definitely get a little buggy if the wrist strap is too tight or too loose. Also, if you move your wrist into certain positions like extension with a little deviation it can get a little funky. For any real exercise, the chest strap is the way to go.

Andre (@andreswart916) reported@GarminFitness Hi folks. Forerunner 255 software version 14.13 seems buggy. Data screen font sizes have shrunk. Please advise how to resolve this.
-
MrsKillJoy616 (@librarykat) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness Ever since I updated your app a few days ago, my notifications won't consistently send through to my watch. I've had to uninstall and reinstall your app multiple times a day to try to get this basic function to work. I've tried to connect with help over this, but that isn't really working either. I would just like a basic function of my watch to work.
-
Sean Underwood (@seanpolice) reported@GarminFitness hello I have the forerunner 735xt. The whole watch face has started to fall out, seems to euro but the whole face falls out..... only couple of years old. Seems poor for such an expensive watch
-
Tom McQuain 🌮❤️ (@runtommcquain) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness got a question about my forerunner 245 music. The heart rate is set and is on, the VO2 max recording is on, and for the last 6 days it hasn't recorded any sleep. I just did the power off by holding the power in for 15 seconds and rebooted how to fix this?
-
Aaron Lassiter 🌵 (@aaron_lassiter) reported@GarminFitness Stop forcing the useless "estimated distance" for timed runs on us. That garbage does nothing positive and whatever project lead was in charge of it should have to publicly apologize for not building in an option to toggle it off.
-
Father Mo (28-22-3) (@1of6Pansfans) reported@GarminFitness fix your app
-
Marc J. Randazza 🇺🇸 🇮🇹 🇧🇷 (@marcorandazza) reported@Apple - my Apple Watch **** the bed and you’re gonna take a week to get it back to me? Guess that gives me a week to try out a @GarminFitness watch and see if I’m ready to swap ecosystems.
-
WhattheHUFF? (@Michael41381590) reported@GarminFitness Can you add rucking on the lower-end devices for us poor folks?
-
@al3x@hachyderm.io (@al3xandru) reported@GarminFitness hi, it looks like the last update of the Connect app on iOS is writing a “Walking + Running” record to Health app for the whole 24h; that in addition to normal activity records. Health daily reports are thus broken (double distances). Is this a known issue? TY
-
ForTheCubs (@forthecubs) reported@Enceladosaurus @GarminFitness Omg good timing~ thx for warning. I've been considering getting a device for the same purposes and that brand had been on the list 😵💫sure as **** isnt now though lmao🙌
-
userx (@voodooobear) reported@GarminFitness for gods sake get rid of MyFitnessPal or at least let me enter my consumed calories manually MyFitnessPal is complete garbage now and its not fair to force people to use a expensive bullshit app to get calories consumed/ burned
-
Pete (@frontieruk) reportedCancelled my @Strava subscription, will be sad not tracking with my @GarminFitness & @wahoofitness devices in the same place but **** childish practices because it’s twice in a year strava has thrown tantrums
-
murph (@BostonLooper) reportedApple Watch SE is officially in the trash - died ~60% of the way through a half marathon yesterday, @GarminFitness here I come
-
Chloé Marie WD (@ChloeWD38) reported@GarminUK @GarminFitness @Garmin hi, please can I speak to someone regarding a broken watch. Thank you 🙏🏻
-
Ben (@TumoLPK) reported@GarminUK @GarminFitness hi, my altimeter on my forerunner 255s has stopped working altogether for the past week. I’ve followed your tips online and it’s made no difference. Looks like a lot of people have experienced the same issue. How can I sort please?
-
🇺🇸God Bless America (@CCPmustDie) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness have you realized there are so many exercise not listed in Connect when you're trying to create your own workouts there. Fix it by adding them! And your interface to create workouts sucks. Fix it! Don't just selling crazy expensive smart watches.
-
Jokin (@kaiku_77) reported@GarminFitness Hello. I have problems with GARMIN Connect when synchronizing. I get a message: "There was an error synchronizing with G.Connect". I do it from a PC in Spain. Can you Help me? I have used it for years with no problems
-
Mark Dalman (@mdalman34) reported@GarminFitness my app is not updating any more from my Venu. Can someone contact me to help?
-
Will.Im.Not (@deanlooby2k10) reportedThe worst thing about @Apple Watch is when it’s pissing rain you can’t stop your run with the screen being so WET, I love @Strava I think @GarminFitness I’ll upgrade too!
-
Stanfield Capital Management (@itstheotherway) reported@GarminFitness your **** is broken rn. direct upload from zwift not working. manual upload of .fit file not working.
-
Nathan Kraft (@Thousand__Paths) reported@GarminFitness Please go back to the full red Heart rate metric on the connect app. The line is WAY TOO HARD to see well, and it makes it more difficult to follow trends. Ever hear “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”? It wasn’t broken. Please put it back the way it was.
-
J. (Hrebinka) Shanahan 🇺🇦 🇸🇪 (@Enceladosaurus) reportedTbh I feel a bit misled by all of the articles claiming the @GarminFitness Forerunner 955 was the best fitness watch ever. I read SO many articles & did research before buying. To end up with something so poorly performing, slow, and buggy? Did we buy the same watch!?
