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

CreativeGenii (@Creativegenieke) reportedCan you support me get my watch fixed @GarminFitness? I got a number for garmin Kenya. The 1st call was answered, the solution they gave didn’t work, they have since not answered calls or WhatsApp. My device keeps going off, battery shows 100%, I’ve rebooted, problem persists.

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!

Florence Sharts (@shan_tahs) reported@GarminFitness my watch battery is draining incredibly fast. It's the forerunner 945. I charged it fully last evening and it was dead at 6am this morning. How do I fix this?

J (@J8099150426777) reported@GMHikaru @GarminFitness That is not even the worst of it, he is still making accusations against Danya
-
Lars Ankile (@larsankile) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness also @Garmin I have this strange issue now that any time I finish a run it tells me I get all sorts of records, like longest run, fastest run, etc. even though it very much isn't, not even for that week (i.e., this includes Garmin data, not counting any imported data)
-
C (@samm1tchel) reported@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.

Michael van den Ham (@MVDHcyclocross) reported@JOEknowsPETE @GarminFitness If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. If it is, do. Applies to watches and fingers.

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
-
Michail Sorotos (@Sorotos) reported@GarminFitness stopped synching workouts from @Technogym my run treadmill from the past 2 weeks anyone who can help? I tried already disconnecting and connecting the services 2 times.
-
Henri Helvetica 🇭🇹 👨🏾🚀 🚀 (@HenriHelvetica) reported@marcelfahle @pepicrft @GarminFitness I'm on a 945 LTE. But I had (still have) a 230 that lasted 6yrs. The only issue is that the battery charge only lasts 1 day (yes, that's the downfall). The screen also had a small group of dead pixels, but still works totally as intended. in 6yrs, took it off only to charge. 💯
-
Tony Kunda (@the_kunda) reported@GarminFitness @Garmin Today was the first day that my daughter wore her Bounce watch and your backend had a massive outage, permanently shaking our confidence in her ability to use the device to get help in an emergency. Unacceptable. Will there be a post-mortem on the outage?

John Straumann (@JohnStraumann) reported@GarminFitness Thanks for the reply, I tried all that multiple times. I bet there is an error in the firmware and/or software that controls the BLE connectivity.
-
Trashatarian (@Trashatarian) reportedAbsolutely do NOT buy a @GarminFitness watch. The charging system is AWFUL. I have a Venu 2S and I'm on my 3rd charging cable in 3 yrs cause the pins keep breaking off. The best they offer is 50% off their garbage charging cable. I'll never buy another until they fix this tech
-
Dave (@mad_hominem) reported@GarminFitness @Spotify having to suddenly spend 15 minutes reauthorising my music when I want to run on my lunch break is a seriously poor UX. Please sort this out.

iona Butler (@iona71) reported@GarminFitness I do have another issue (this is day two of using my new Garmin) I cant get the wrist gesture to work. the mode is always on and the sensitivity is set to high but it still doesn't activate when I raise my wrist. Can you help please?
-
Rob Scherer (@RobScherer6) reportedOne problem I see right away with the @Garmin @GarminFitness HRM 600 is the connection between the strap and the pod, which you have to separate in order to charge the device...this pod is breaking at some point. What are my options when it does?
-
Ciprian Talaba (@ctalaba) reportedGarmin Connect down? @GarminFitness @dcrainmakerblog

Sunil Kumar (@sunilkumar8mile) reported@GarminFitness Thanks team for your response and the workaround. However now the issue got resolved and data is syncing into TrainingPeaks.

Joey Davis (@SanDiegoJoey) reportedHey @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

kevin duquette (@kevinduquette) reported@GarminFitness i know this doesn't do anything, but i bought a vívoactive® 3 Music and it's the biggest piece of **** and waste of my money all time. doesn't even stay charged for a few hours with all the services disabled. like, it can't even just be a watch. i hate it.
