Ken harrison (@Kenharrison99) reported@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 .

Mark Dalman (@mdalman34) reported@GarminFitness my app is not updating any more from my Venu. Can someone contact me to help?
-
Deep General Research Institute (@DGR_Institute) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness I just bought and tested your new 2026 Garmin D2 Mach 2 Pro: I have used an Apple Watch Ultra One since release, as comparison (half the price of your watch): The build quality of your product is so hilariously bad that after one hour of testing, I decided to send it back and request a refund. Absolute China Trash. The display resolution and quality (yes I removed the display sticker lol) looks like from 2008 and the case makes noise like a kids toy. It’s heavy and bumpy too. Even the satellite emergency function, that you charge ten euros per month for, I get at Apple for free of charge. I will never buy anything from Garmin again. Worst company ever.

Margaret-Ann, PhD Scholar (@RealMargaretAnn) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness listen, I need y’all to fix this Forerunner HR firmware ASAP because I know I’m fit af (IRONMAN!) but there’s no way my HR was between 31-76 for a 1.5hr Zone 2 training run… it’s been weeks, PLEASE SAVE US FROM THIS HELL! I’M NOT UNPRODUCTIVE! 😭 #garmin

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?

nothing Intentional (@kyabaatum) reported@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?
-
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?

c: (@MrBeatThatAs) reported@herculysee @GarminFitness Would be cool to get a herc @GarminFitness review. Too bad my goat doesnt have one anymore😔
-
Harish Shinde (@hvs_1988) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness kindly change your testing teams who tests products. FR 745 is utterly disappointment for its name. It never syncs properly. Worst battery performance,even it wont stand 100km ride not sure how come its boasted as triathlete one.
-

-
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!?

Stanfield Capital Management (@itstheotherway) reported@GarminFitness your **** is broken rn. direct upload from zwift not working. manual upload of .fit file not working.

Jake Rampart (@JakeRampart) reportedCan @fitbit @FitbitSupport please help me understand why I have called your helpline over 15 times and my versa 4 still doesn’t work at all??? What a complete joke!!!! @GarminFitness here I come!
-
Michael Arter (@Michael_Arter) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness YET again your #vivoactive4 watch has missed laps while swimming. This is such a poor quality device ! What’s even worse you pretend here in social media that you follow up on issues yet every single email I have sent you has been ignored !! #poor

TrackBiteX (@TrackBiteX) reported@voodooobear @GarminFitness MyFitnessPal charging you to log calories is like a grocery store making you pay just to write down your own shopping list.
-
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.
-
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?
-
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?
-
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.
-
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!

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.
-
@al3x@hachyderm.io (@al3xandru) reported@GarminFitness hi, it looks like the last update of the Connect app on iOS is writing a “Walking + Running” record to Health app for the whole 24h; that in addition to normal activity records. Health daily reports are thus broken (double distances). Is this a known issue? TY
-
Jeanette Smith (@jeanettemiami) reportedAnd on this day, @fitbit died. It was a slow death - first came the email, then came the #challenges & the last gasp of #groups. Then the pain as thousands upon thousands fled as fitbit died in ignominy, mourned by many & then simply forgotten as @apple & @GarminFitness rejoiced.

Mahli (@Mah_Lan) reported@GarminFitness @Garmin the GPS on my Forerunner 645M is giving issues. Please help.
