    @Garmin @GarminFitness 1. what's up with your poor customer service? How many times do I need to contact you for support. You told me my Forerunner 165 has a known battery issue and will exchange it out. I was promised next day shipping on the exchange. My watch has been with

    @Garmin @GarminFitness 2. My watch has been with you for over a week. No updates until I contact you. Its a simple fix but every time I look for support, your agents say they will escalate it and then drop out of the chat. I have the screen recording as proof if you want.

    @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.

    @GarminFitness API: A clunky zip dump nightmare, like blindfolded Rubik’s Cube. @ouraring? Seamless & dev-friendly. Step up or devs flee! #GarminFail #APIProblems #Wearables

    hey @Garmin and @GarminFitness I'm unable to enroll my Fenix 7 solar in your beta program. Always errors out, software is stuck on 8.37, can you help?

    Hey @Garmin @GarminFitness when are you going to fix the update that broke the Index 2 smart scales? It’s been weeks, no ability to upload to @garminconnect

    @GarminFitness why won’t my connect show intensity minutes anymore!?? I’ve tried to edit my day and remove and re-add intensity and nothing seems to fix this.

    @GarminFitness I have now had a Garmin Venu Sq for a year and it is the worst fitness tracker I have ever had. Now it won’t even pair with my new phone, and for pairing I had to remove it from the old phone. So no stats anywhere now. Never correct anyway LOL Garmin rubbish!

    @GarminFitness hello, my vivoactive 5 is having completely dark screen time to time for hours. I am disappointed that I am having this major problem. Battery is almost full. Any troubleshooting? Would you care to help as I am trying to reach you?

    @GarminFitness I spent like 2 hours putting my workouts into your app and now I am doing the 1st one and I can't adjust the weight or reps and your rep counter sucks. How do I fix that???? When I did the generic workout I could adjust reps and weight.

    @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.

    Tbh 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!?

    @GarminFitness my app is not updating any more from my Venu. Can someone contact me to help?

    @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.

    @GarminUK @GarminFitness - disappointed that my Forerunner 965 has broken after less than 3 years and the option is to buy a refurbished device at a price of £155. I expect a £600 watch to last longer than it has, especially as it’s not worn all day / everyday.

    @GarminFitness I own two Scales S2, one home and other for my beach house, why I dont get all the information on my second scale? I find it absourd. Fix that please, both under my Garmin account.

    @GarminFitness After 7 years I’m trying to get rid of my ugly Apple Watch for a beautiful Venu 3. I just need the Venu 3 to exist first. Please help 😭

    KDaltonD 🇺🇦 (@kdaltond) reported

    So, @garmin / @GarminFitness I'm told by Product Support that a ride launched thru downloaded Movies in Tacx desktop app doesn't count for a challenge that ride is a part of. Can that be right? That's a clear design flaw. Please fix.

    Tim Kettenring (@timkettenring) reported

    @Jefffeldman I’m not sure tbh but what I do know is that all the marketing around wearables and “recovery” products is largely based on making people feel good (or bad @GarminFitness) and making them think they need to “recover” from something nebulous - which has then led to this proliferation of “recovery” protocols 🙄

    Ok @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

    Sam Keene (@slkeene) reported

    @Kharrii1 @GarminFitness I did several times in the first couple years running. They suck! I’d slow the pace way off, foam roll and wear compression sleeves but work through them. Now I don’t worry about them, it’s more just making sure form isn’t slacking or getting enough recovery in.

    Apple Watch SE is officially in the trash - died ~60% of the way through a half marathon yesterday, @GarminFitness here I come

    I need your help. I've been a loyal @WHOOP user. I've been with them for 5+ years. But... i'm sick of it not giving me my distance on runs, but i love that the battery last 15 days AND that i get ZERO notifications from it. People recommend @GarminFitness, but i really don't want a smart watch. Just the best fitness tracker. Any thoughts?

    @Garmin @GarminFitness . Throwing your watch away. Fed up with your idiotic proprietary charging port. Worst design which gets ***...ed every six months. Switching over to other watch. You lost a regular/loyal customer
