Brahma N (@brahma_n) reported1/n This is my 15th year with @GarminFitness watches and they still can’t get software right. Their watches are twice the price of apple watches but their software can’t get basics right. @Garmin coach workouts don’t sync with the watch, an issue reported on Reddit and Garmin forums for years. There are hundreds of threads -

Baptiste (@baptiste_del) reported@GarminFrance @GarminFitness @Garmin Hey Garmin, it is soon my mother birthday and her fenix watch died recently. She is really sad that she lost her 1000+ days goal streak and even more sad that her watch cannot be repaired. The support told us we would receive a discount for a new one but we received nothing. Can you help me so I can order for her birthday?

Oceanman (@Kaidansei) reportedI do most of my work indoors and on treadmills, peloton, fan bikes, or in the pool. Apparently the watch isn't good with those exercises and needs outdoor runs. Ok, fine, but it shouldn't do calculations then or display results if that data isn't available. Or fix it to use other pertinent information like Grok, Claude, Gemini and others do! @grok does this mesh with other users of the device? Is there anything @apple can do to fix it? Do devices like @GarminFitness have this issue?

Jon loves summertime! (@JonB65) reported@TechOperator I've been using @GarminFitness for years. Unfortunately I couldn't wear it at work. Pretty sure I didn't need it to tell me my poor sleep and high stress. If I had, I may well have quit.
-
Dostoevsky’s Girl (@saoirse_sikhu) reportedI really think there’s something wrong with this watch. How does my HR go down from 110bpm to 80bpm during/after 10 minutes of running??? 2 weeks ago it went as far down as 60 and I was dripping sweat from running. Explain that @GarminFitness ???
-
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
-
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.
-
Thefodfather (@thefodfather155) reported@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.

Dalton DeVore (@livestrong829) reportedThe @GarminFitness venu 3 is by far the biggest piece of **** I’ve ever purchased.
-
Nimish T (@t_nimish64935) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness genius product strategy. 1. Sell trainers with issues. 2. Have only one country wide service center, the user bears cost and risk to send bulky (25kg) courier. 3. Bluetooth drops off and it is termed as PCB/motherboard issue and cant be repaired. 1/n

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.

Andrew MacDonald (@RevMacTO) reported@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!
-
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
-
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.

Sudhanshu Sehgal (@sudhanshu1011) reportedMy POV regarding this. I started running in June of 2020 and ran with a Casio watch till November of 2024. Then planned to buy a watch and was confused b/w Coros & Garmin. I went for Coros Pace Pro and it was the latest watch from their side at that time because it got released a month before. Pace Pro hasn't still been launched in India and I had to get it from US. Battery of Pace Pro is quite good. First hand experience of this from my side- I ran a 24 Hour Stadium Run in March of 2025 where I covered 175 KM in a span of 24 hours. The battery of the watch at the start of the race was 98 or 99% battery. After 24 hours, 50% battery was still remaining which I can bet none of the entry level watches from Garmin could do. Another recent experience of one of my friends who is a Coros user. His Pace-3 button stooped working & it had been 18 months since the point of buy. He raised the ticket for this concern and it got exchanged and this happened in India where Coros even doesn't have a single offline outlet I guess & it's presence is quite limited. If it would have been Garmin, it wouldn't have been replaced because Garmin comes with 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty whereas Coros comes with 2-year limited warranty starting from the original activation date. This is a pretty big difference. This is not a biased post regarding Coros because I am a Coros user but this is just my perspective and still I stand that entry level Coros watches are way more good especially in the context of battery. Recently one of my friends bought Garmin 265 Music & he himself says that it's battery is not that good. If you want to buy Garmin, buy it. It is good but the point is what is your purpose behind buying either a Garmin or a Coros. Entry level Coros watches battery are way more longer than the entry level watches of Garmin. @COROSGlobal @Garmin @GarminFitness

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!?

Who? (@HoratioHoose) reported@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 😭

AC (@TheStroBro) reported@GarminFitness Looking at Garmin Connect, there was probably some impact of adding strength training last week on my runs. But yesterday for recovery should help today. I added 52 minutes of stimulus on top of the previous 105 minutes of running, that's 49.5% of increase in some volume.
