    2/3 @Garmin_India @GarminFitness Svc ctr says only 3 mth warranty so this cannot be replaced, pay Rs 10000 to repair. For a 30000 product! If replacement was given then same long term warranty should apply. No senior person comes on call to solve the problem.Just asking for 10000

    @GarminFitness @GarminUK I’ve got a HRM Dual that despite connecting to my watch will not read HR. I’ve replaced the battery, tried a different strap, and reset the HRM with no success. Seems to be really common issue online. How do I fix please?

    @GarminFitness Hi Folks. Please help resolve. Forerunner 255 data screen font has shrunk on Version 14.13

    @MarkMilliganDPT @GarminFitness I think the wrist heart rate sensor is just kind of buggy. I’m in the Fenix 6 now, but occasionally I go through periods of getting a lot of false abnormally high heart rate alerts, and either restarting or updating the software will resolve it.

    @GarminFitness the update process is too complicated and broken for Garmin devices for sure.. pls help solve this mystery

    @GarminFitness Can you fox your shipping challenges to help get the watch I ordered over a week ago. Ninja shipped a whole food processor in 2 days and you can't get me a watch inside a week.

    @GarminFitness your **** is broken rn. direct upload from zwift not working. manual upload of .fit file not working.

    @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.

    @Garmin sync for @SmashrunHQ is broken too after Garmin's Oauth changes last week. How long will this last? @GarminFitness

    @GarminFitness I've a venu 2. While I understand the stairs concept, what I see is that it's somehow taking the gps or something else to consider that I climbed 20-30 stairs in a day when actually I'm riding my bike. Can you fix this issue?

  • karamanugur1
    Uğur Karaman (@karamanugur1) reported

    @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?

    @GarminUK @GarminFitness, will you be looking at a buggy/stroller setting in activities? Having to put my watch in my pocket defeats the object of it and pushing one handed is not ideal off road. It's a real bug bear with myself and active friends #vivoactive3 #activeparents

    @UKSVacher @Garmin @GarminFitness I've not been running for a couple of weeks due to bad toes. Miss it a lot, think I might sneak parkrun in tomorrow

    @GarminFitness My Garmin Solar Instinct keeps going off and won’t turn back on unless connected to power. The battery is fully charged. What could be the issue?

    . @GarminFitness seeing runs recorded today while Connect was down have now synced to Strava but not @TrainingPeaks anyway to repush them?

    @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. 💯

    @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.

    @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 🙄

  • njergonomics
    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.

  • aaron_lassiter

    @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.

    @GarminFitness hi. My garmin 955 solar seems to have a bad battery. I fully charged it sunday night and im already down at 20%. Is there something that can be done?

  • acdaisy_
    acdaisy (@acdaisy_) reported

    @GarminFitness @Garmin I have a newer (June 25) device that the heart rate tracking does not consistently work. I reach out to support and I get the run around each time and still have a device that doesn't consistently work. Is there anyone that can help?

    @GarminFitness bought a vivoactive5. For 3 weeks it’s been really good- suddenly has disconnected and won’t re connect! Help guide absolutely useless! Haven’t even paid for the thing in full yet! So so disappointed! Won’t buy Garmin again
