    @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.

    @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.

    @GarminFitness If I go for a slow jog on a hot day, and my HR goes up, Garmin drops my VO2 max number. If I go out when it’s cool the next day, suddenly I’m more fit and my VO2 goes up. And Garmin is never happy about my training status. You’re like an emotionally abusive partner.

    @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 @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.

    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.

    @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 Thanks team for your response and the workaround. However now the issue got resolved and data is syncing into TrainingPeaks.

    @GarminFitness Hey, any insight you can shed on a Garmin Bike Radar (RTL500) kicking up a "Sensor Error 1:1" on my Edge? It happens a fair bit these days. TIA!

  • 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.

    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!?

    @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?

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

    @GarminFitness Is it possible to change the Connect calorie display back to the previous version? The new update now takes me directly to the worst version of MFP. I miss the simple display.

    @GarminFitness @Garmin the GPS on my Forerunner 645M is giving issues. Please help.

    @Garmin @GarminFitness after almost two years my Fenix 5S Plus became faulty and luckily it was still under warranty and I got a replacement. Now we're two years later and it's broken again and I need to spend $180 for another replacement. What should I do ? (1/2)

    @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 🙄

    @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.

  • starlitdazzle
    AmeliaBaldreeNichols (@starlitdazzle) reported

    Waking up to find out @GarminFitness changed its Garmin Connect All Activities view and it's terrible. How can I return to the minimized version of ystrday where I could see more data on the screen? I don't need or want this maximized version with icons where I see less actvities

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

    @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 @Derico42799367 I will be taking my money elsewhere. You are a 💩 greedy, ***** company with worst software on this planet.

  • Bean_Cotton
    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.

  • tshugart3
    Tom Shugart (@tshugart3) reported

    @GarminFitness That graph with all the missing data was from a sync via my computer and Garmin Express. Disappointing that there's nothing else to be done (the support center stuff doesn't help). What I think it needs is an update, and it sounds like that's not forthcoming.

    The @GarminFitness venu 3 is by far the biggest piece of **** I’ve ever purchased.

    @mikeoniron @GarminFitness garmin seems to be a problem, sleep without. Train better w! Apple Ultra and Polar H-10. My feel is more accurate than the garmin .

    Absolutely 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
