Walking activity top stop button

Sometimes when I walk I inadvertently touch the top button and it immediately intereupts or ends my activity. You should provide a confirmation prompt to avoid that. This we must press the button twice to stop an activity.

Pain in the butt to repair to new phone

Had the phone for 4 months. I got a new phone after 4 months. Tried for three days to get paired to new phone. Not user friendly at all. Started chat with support. They really had no clue just kept taking me I. Circles that been doing for 3 days already. I findly figured it out after finding some info online. Pairing to a new phone shouldn't take more than 5 minutes let alone three days and support failing to any better than myself at figuring it out.

Garmin just doesn't get it

Over the years, I have purchased several Garmin products. I have a Garmin Venu watch and while it's not new, my Google Android phone is new so I was able to sync my Garmin watch to my phone using Garmin Connect. What I don't understand about Garmin is that anytime you wish to record information, you have to do so on a small screen using big fat clumsy fingers If you have to set up an online account through Garmin, why don't you enable your users to safe all their contact info & ride info using the Garmin online app. With one account, carrying all your contacts, locations, rides, etc, you could manage all your Garmin devices. Seems so simple to me

Cannot get my phone alarms or my music on watch

Pretty awesome so far. But sorely disappointed in two basic features I cannot get. I had to get a third party app to connect YT music, I would have even settled for SoundCloud.

Excellent multi purposes sport watch

I bought the Venu 2 days ago so I can try out Garmin watch since I never owned one before. I had multiple versions of Fitbit Charge and Ionic for over 6-7 years. I was surprised how easy it was set up and especially the Sortify music option that I can store music on the watch. I ran a half-marathon even and I can analyze my performance in details. I absolutely love it so far

3 additions to make it perfect

I have used a popular fitness tracker for years and just bought a Garmin Venu two weeks ago. Should have done it 2 years ago, I LOVE it! 3 things and it would be perfect! Maybe these exist and I just don?t know how to access? 1) Ability to add intensity minutes to activity data fields. I?d also like to be able to see at what heart rate intensity minutes start and at what rate they x2. 2) Always on setting for the stopwatch. 3) Daily notes option on Connect. I?d like to be able to add details for particularly good or bad days. I?d also like a sleep score but realize that is an upgrade on the Venu 2. I?m actually finding that the Body Battery may be a better indicator of sleep than a sleep score anyway. Thanks for making a great product!

Beautiful Watch

This watch looks timeless, it looks elegant yet strong. I love all the features. The display is truly gorgeous. I can see the face of this watch even in the bright sun. I love the nudging saying tine to move. I've used it with my rower and elliptical as well as walking. I've partnerd it with my fitness app app and I can enter all of my daily diary from food to hydration. I haven't even begun to tap into everything this watch cab help me with. The possibilities are endless. Great 50th Birthday Present from the hubs. I love it!

Great Looking

I got this watch and a couple days ago and I must say it?s the perfect watch to workout with and just be casual in. The only downside I?ve discovered is my old AirPods don?t sync with this watch and I can?t respond to iPhone messages.

Stylish and sporty

I got this as an early birthday present and have only worn it for a week, but so far I love it. Looks so good on. Love the features, has inspired me to run, and so some breathing exercises, and I love that I don?t have to run with my phone to listen to music now. Looking forward to finding out all the benefits of having a smart watch.

Great Features! Needs more Garmin Pay options

I have only been using my watch a few days but it is already helping me evaluate so many important activities including my sleep. Love all the extras too: music, different watch faces, and menstrual tracking. The only downside is Garmin Pay; it would great if it would connect to Paypal or even Amex. I was looking forward the Pay feature but hopefully that will be improved soon.

What I don't understand about Garmin is that anytime you wish to record information, you have to do so on a small screen using big fat clumsy fingers If you have to set up an online account through Garmin, why don't you enable your users to safe all their contact info & ride info us...

Advanced Sleep Monitoring
Get a full picture of how you're sleeping, with a breakdown of your light, deep and REM sleep stages as well as Pulse OX3 and respiration data.

Wrist-Based Heart Rate
The watch constantly samples your heart rate4 and will alert you if it stays too high or too low while you're at rest. It also helps gauge how hard you work during activities, even underwater.

Mindful Breathing
When you want to relax or focus, you can start a breathwork activity, and this watch will track your stress and respiration to help you get a better understanding of how you're breathing.
