Garmin Connect Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
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
-
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.
-
Melanie J (@only_little) reported@LadySayFuckALot @Garmin @GarminFitness I would be interested to know if they reply. Worst customer “service” ever. Love my watch but hate that you can never ask them anything 😢
-
CreativeGenii (@Creativegenieke) reportedCan you support me get my watch fixed @GarminFitness? I got a number for garmin Kenya. The 1st call was answered, the solution they gave didn’t work, they have since not answered calls or WhatsApp. My device keeps going off, battery shows 100%, I’ve rebooted, problem persists.
-
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.
-
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!?
-
J (@J8099150426777) reported@GMHikaru @GarminFitness That is not even the worst of it, he is still making accusations against Danya
-
LuckyLinguini (@luckylinguini) reportedGarmin is by far the worst active smart watch you can buy. What ******** is this **** @GarminFitness @Garmin
-
murph (@BostonLooper) reportedApple Watch SE is officially in the trash - died ~60% of the way through a half marathon yesterday, @GarminFitness here I come
-
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 🙄

-
AaeJay (@AaeJay2008) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness 2. My watch has been with you for over a week. No updates until I contact you. Its a simple fix but every time I look for support, your agents say they will escalate it and then drop out of the chat. I have the screen recording as proof if you want.
-
ForTheCubs (@forthecubs) reported@Enceladosaurus @GarminFitness Omg good timing~ thx for warning. I've been considering getting a device for the same purposes and that brand had been on the list 😵💫sure as **** isnt now though lmao🙌
-
Ben (@TumoLPK) reported@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?
-
Dave (@wanderingdave) reportedHelp @GarminFitness , make your own and don't you dare pay wall it.
-
kevin duquette (@kevinduquette) reported@GarminFitness i know this doesn't do anything, but i bought a vívoactive® 3 Music and it's the biggest piece of **** and waste of my money all time. doesn't even stay charged for a few hours with all the services disabled. like, it can't even just be a watch. i hate it.

Joey Davis (@SanDiegoJoey) reportedHey @Garmin @GarminFitness when are you going to fix the update that broke the Index 2 smart scales? It’s been weeks, no ability to upload to @garminconnect
-
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.
-
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
-
Codex (@kkode_x) reported@Sanza @GarminFitness 7k in 50 minutes not bad at all
-
Chloé Marie WD (@ChloeWD38) reported@GarminUK @GarminFitness @Garmin hi, please can I speak to someone regarding a broken watch. Thank you 🙏🏻
-
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?
-
Dave (@mad_hominem) reported@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.
-
Florence Sharts (@shan_tahs) reported@GarminFitness hi. My garmin 955 solar seems to have a bad battery. I fully charged it sunday night and im already down at 20%. Is there something that can be done?

Deep General Research Institute (@DGR_Institute) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness I just bought and tested your new Garmin D2 Mach 2 Pro: I have used an Apple Watch Ultra One since release, as comparison: 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. China Trash. Display (really bad black and contrast) and case quality (moves and makes noises, no working lunette) is a 4/10, in relation to 1700€ price tag a 2/10. On top: Your OS is so bloated, slow and you force users to install 5! different apps and still charge 10€ per month for satellite coverage (@Apple it is for free). Compared to my almost 4 years old Apple watch your watch feels and looks like a kids toy. I will wait for the Apple Watch Ultra 4 instead.
-
Marilu Carvallo (@MariluCarvallo) reported@GarminFitness I own two Scales S2, one home and other for my beach house, why I dont get all the information on my second scale? I find it absourd. Fix that please, both under my Garmin account.

-
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?
-
AaeJay (@AaeJay2008) reported@Garmin @GarminFitness 1. what's up with your poor customer service? How many times do I need to contact you for support. You told me my Forerunner 165 has a known battery issue and will exchange it out. I was promised next day shipping on the exchange. My watch has been with
