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.

I bought my venu two years ago to replace my Apple Watch. Feel in love with the venu. I had Hoped the battery would last through my first marathon.at mile 24..14 it died. In addition, throughout my marathon training my watch has been continuously loosing connection to the Garmin connect app on my phone. If I plugged the watch to my computer it would recognize my activities and everything would sync up. I even called once and of course everything worked while on the phone. Nevertheless, this continued to happen that the watch and Garmin connect would loose connection. I would have to spend time trying to add the device again. I was very happy with my Garmin Venu but during my marathon training I was pretty frustrated.

Downloaded the new version of the App. Lost all previous data, the App doesn't sync and even when it does, dara doesn't get uploaded. Workouts disappear as soon as you hit "finished" and cannot upload workouts to the watch anymore. It was a good watch and served me well for two years, now it's USELESS. Garmin support couldn't solve the problem

Impossible pairing to new - 2 years ago

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.

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

I bought the Venu to replace my VivoActive (which is difficult to charge now). This was a step backwards, BUT I only want a tool to track distance and calculate my pace on runs. I never used the Garmin App prior to today, 8 May 2022. I downloaded it in the hope it would be easier to use the watch. It made 0% difference, and only put me in line for more marketing even though I opted out of it all. Hopefully I can figure out how to adjust the settings so it suits the way I use it.

I bought this a year ago and the notifications have never worked. Everything else with the watch is great, tracks exercise, water, sleep - no notifications. I am now considering whether I should buy a new watch and doubting Garmin even though I love their brand. The notifications are one of the main reasons why I bought the watch in the first place. Im worried if I buy another Garmin I will have the same issue.

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
