Josh Lane (@joshlane34) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness A UX recommendation for your watches. If I forget to save my sleep activity in the morning before heading out on my run, my watch spends my whole run asking me if I want to save my sleep activity or dismiss the notification. It takes over my running display so none of my running data is readable. If I dismiss the notification, it takes me back to my normal watch face and I need to click multiple times to get back into my activity. And, within a minute or two the notification comes back anyway and the cycle repeats. If I click save, it almost always takes longer than my run to actually save the activity. My screen is frozen with "Saving" and the circling green indicator around the edges. I am unable to see my running data panels. I'm unable to pause a run, hit a lap timer, anything. It's just stuck on Saving. Today, it gave me "Saving" for the last 3 miles of my run, for the 10 minutes I spent cooling down and drinking water, and now still for the time it's taken me to write this suggestion. Basically, if I forget to save my sleep activity, and ensure that I've fully dismissed the sleep activity before my run, then my watch is unusable. I assume these are both bugs. If so, please add them to your list to fix if they're not already there. If they're not bugs and they're intended workflow, I have a few suggestions. 1. Dismissing the notification should dismiss it until after the current in-progress activity ends. 2. Dismissing the notification should take you back to the current in-progress activity. 3. Click "Save Activity" shouldn't cause the watch to lock up for an excessive amount of time. It should either save in the background if it takes a while, or save faster. Or, if neither of those is possible, it shouldn't be an option at all until after the current activity ends. 4. Prompt to save the previous unsaved activity once, before the new activity starts. 5. If none of the above are impossible, just suppress the whole interaction until there are no other in-progress activities. Thanks!

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?

Andre (@andreswart916) reported@GarminFitness Hi folks. Forerunner 255 software version 14.13 seems buggy. Data screen font sizes have shrunk. Please advise how to resolve this.
-
Abhijeet (@IamAbhiMishra) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness . Throwing your watch away. Fed up with your idiotic proprietary charging port. Worst design which gets ***...ed every six months. Switching over to other watch. You lost a regular/loyal customer
-
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.
-
Sarah (@pixistik04) reported@GarminFitness To my knowledge, my account is not active under the email they have emailed. It was transferred to another email as when I login that is where I see my devices. Why am I getting emails to an old email?
-
Dalton DeVore (@livestrong829) reportedIs there a class action lawsuit out there against @Garmin or @GarminFitness that I can jump in on? There is no way it is legal to have a watch this bad at monitoring heart rate.

-
AmeliaBaldreeNichols (@starlitdazzle) reportedWaking 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
-
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.

gee spang (@spangger) reported@GarminFitness Enough of the "humour" and fix the fckng software! 24.12 Is a disgrace!
-
Lopez (@willa_daddy) reported@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.
-
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. 🙏🏼🤞🏼

Dave (@wanderingdave) reportedHelp @GarminFitness , make your own and don't you dare pay wall it.

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

Thefodfather (@thefodfather155) reported@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.

erin link (@TennislinkE) reported@GarminFitness my charging cable melted my port and fried my Vivoactive 3 is there any fix?
-
Froglet 🐸 (@froglet80) reported@amymitchellart @GarminFitness @scrippsresearch i put a couple drops of superglue on where it snaps into the band when that **** happened to me (luckily in my cabin, i'd never have found it otherwise) lol also there are FAR BETTER styles of bands for long term wear on amazon. i don't even use it anymore, if anyone in our community needs one HMU, just pay shipping and if you want to donate extra thats cool
-
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.
-
Trashatarian (@Trashatarian) reportedAbsolutely 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
-
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.
