Renato Villanueva (@_renatov) reportedI need your help. I've been a loyal @WHOOP user. I've been with them for 5+ years. But... i'm sick of it not giving me my distance on runs, but i love that the battery last 15 days AND that i get ZERO notifications from it. People recommend @GarminFitness, but i really don't want a smart watch. Just the best fitness tracker. Any thoughts?
-
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 ???
-
Sissikiwi1 (@Sissikiwi1) reported@GarminFitness I have now had a Garmin Venu Sq for a year and it is the worst fitness tracker I have ever had. Now it won’t even pair with my new phone, and for pairing I had to remove it from the old phone. So no stats anywhere now. Never correct anyway LOL Garmin rubbish!
-
c: (@MrBeatThatAs) reported@herculysee @GarminFitness Would be cool to get a herc @GarminFitness review. Too bad my goat doesnt have one anymore😔
-
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 😭
-
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.
-
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?
-
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
-
LuckyLinguini (@luckylinguini) reportedGarmin is by far the worst active smart watch you can buy. What ******** is this **** @GarminFitness @Garmin
-
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?
-
Mike Lifts (@mikeoniron) reported8:30hrs sleep Poor quality Poor recovery Thanks @GarminFitness
-
Chris Manc (@ChrisManc9) reported@GarminFitness I'm shocked and annoyed that Garmin is trashing up the app that syncs with my venue 2s. I have to scroll down or x it out to see my data. Grrrr. It is getting old but I won't be replacing it with another Garmin device.
-
J (@J8099150426777) reported@GMHikaru @GarminFitness That is not even the worst of it, he is still making accusations against Danya
-
Serah Mwihaki (@mwihakiwanjeri) reported@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?
-
Aaron Lassiter 🌵 (@aaron_lassiter) reported@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.
-
murph (@BostonLooper) reportedApple Watch SE is officially in the trash - died ~60% of the way through a half marathon yesterday, @GarminFitness here I come
-
Krestian Muhlig (@KrelleC) reported@Vasco360 @GarminFitness I am having the same problem with fenix 6 pro solar. I cant sync anything. I’ve tried to erase my watch from connect and Bluetooth it made worse.
-
Mark Milligan (@MarkMilliganDPT) reported@KellerCaponePhD @GarminFitness Hey Cheryl! Great to hear from you! Oh good call. Will wear chest strap next time and see! Same tightness each time. Sweating does not seem to matter. I tried starting by wetting it to simulate sweat. I even take the watch off and see if it calibrates but that does not help
-
Sean Underwood (@seanpolice) reported@GarminFitness hello I have the forerunner 735xt. The whole watch face has started to fall out, seems to euro but the whole face falls out..... only couple of years old. Seems poor for such an expensive watch
-
Laura Perttula (@LauraPerttula) reported.@GarminFitness @Garmin is there a reason why the "confidence" metric is even in your 5K Garmin Coach plan? Can I just run without you ranking whether you think I'm going to be successful? I do not find it helpful or motivating. I'm a longtime, but slow, runner rebuilding.
-
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?
-
Tim Kettenring (@timkettenring) reported@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 🙄

murph (@BostonLooper) reportedApple Watch SE is officially in the trash - died ~60% of the way through a half marathon yesterday, @GarminFitness here I come
-
Hari Ganti (@FalxFour) reported@GarminFitness I think there's an issue syncing to @MyFitnessPal right now...
-
erin link (@TennislinkE) reported@GarminFitness my charging cable melted my port and fried my Vivoactive 3 is there any fix?
-
Dave Harbuckle (@2KnucklesIn) reported@GarminFitness Yeah, I've done all that and nothing worked. I have 3 activities recorded this week and the app just tells me I have no training status and a **** vo2 max. Guess I should've gone with another company instead.
-
Brian Tafel (@briantafel) reportedHi @GarminFitness could you please fix the VO2 max / Apple Health integration that thousands of us serious runners have been asking for? It feels like hubris. I’m looking srsly at Apple Watch Ultra knowing my hard work shows up across health apps. 🙏🏼🤞🏼
-
K. Wilson (@tanrunningman) reportedSucks that many of us are having the same issue, but good to know that we’re not alone so it will likely get fixed soon… I also noticed that as an apple user my run did not update to my Apple health or fitness app either so it is likely a @Garmin @GarminFitness issue.
-
Cutthroat (@3x5Floyd) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness please buy @Strava their new pricing debacle appears to be a sign of struggles. Perhaps their tech can help you fix your software.
-
Brittany Busse, MD (@brittanybussemd) reported@jaybjackson @JasonFitz1 @GarminFitness I am not. I do help people find the right fueling routine for their physiology.
