Reports about problems with Garmin
  • @runanyway42 @Garmin I've got my watch "working" again, but for some reason can't get it to sync with the app. I get the QR code, which launces the app, but fails to connect. Ugh.
  • @Garmin my Garmin Epix Pro Gen 2 has stopped working and has got into a automatic reboot mode since yesterday. So much money wasted? Help
  • @chaks_1980 I’ve finally reset but now cannot pair with my phone. Just will not connect. Garmin helplines (phone and chat) are “not available”.
  • hey @Garmin I had the blue triangle issue but fixed it. Not my watch cant find the GPS. What can I do? Im doing resets for over 6 hours right now.
  • @GarminUK my Garmin forerunner 265s will not pair to my phone since the issues yesterday and a hard reset. Is this situation still ongoing?
  • @Garmin kindly roll back your latest software update, It's not working. My watch has a mind of its own now.
  • @morecowbell11 @Garmin I called to Garmin, they said that it's global issue and promised to create fixing update. I hope everything will be fine
  • @mohamedalmanea @Garmin Mine still is! Hardware reset doesn't work (I get no beeps) and the watch isn't recognised on either Mac or PC so I can't update it with Garmin Express either! :(
  • I am going out on a run without my garmin (because it’s still not working m) how did my ancestors run without a garmin /s
  • @Garmin also having issues #garminbluetriangle
  • Garmin "acknowledges" the problem...woulda been great if Garmin "apologizes" for the for the problem and time suck this caused customers. Terrible PR handling. @Garmin #tech #cybersecurity #digital #customerservice #run
  • Hey @GarminFitness @Garmin did the whole factory reset for the blue triangle issue bug. Forerunner 955 works again but won’t sync anymore with garmin connect app ?.
  • @AlanCandelasN @Garmin Dear Alan Yes I have. You need to do a hard reset. I will explain in details on my following tweet. PS: As far as I realized the issue effected generally forerunner series.
  • @theRealRiga @Garmin Yeah I can definitely appreciate that. I'd imagine that 99% of Garmin owners aren't going to be doing hard resets and going into file structures to delete a file ?‍♂️ From my understanding you cannot sync with Connect afterwards either. You would just be saving a handful of…
  • Owned an apple watch for countless lf years with no issues, before deciding to switch to #Garmin, & within the first month, the whole watch stops working, & requires a factory reset. Cool, cool @Garmin
  • @mattymore @Garmin I cannot even perform factory reset on my epix pro gen 2
  • This @Garmin outage is completely pathetic. After delaying my activity to constantly reboot Garmin eventually reset the whole device to factory settings and after sync randomly deleted half my activity
  • @Garmin I’ve had the issue with the Garmin today, followed the steps with hard reset but when I go to set it up again, it’s not showing me a code and won’t pair with my phone, just keeps showing me the scan with camera QR code?
  • @herbievine The reset and updating the software from Garmin connect is what solved it for me.
  • @herbievine It worked with the rest after I updated the software through Garmin connect.
  • Frustrating issues with Garmin watches today, have they resolved it yet? I’ve only just figured how to get it out of a restart loop now
  • @Garmin any fix for the annoying #bluetriangle issue? Watch is still #useless
  • @laurencehaslop @Garmin Mine just went to the blue triangle as well, wasn't trying to start GPS either
  • @pkedrosky Mine worked fine this morning, though I did get an error trying to log into Garmin Connect. Reloaded my browser page and it was back to normal.
  • @MichaelSnasdell @Garmin Most likely some generic update that went wrong since its affecting different models. Though did not notice any updates on my watch the last week?‍♂️
  • for anyone experiencing a crash with your garmin, read this: the issue is due to the GPS functionalities, so an easy fix is to disable that. if you're currently in the triangle reset phase, follow these steps to hard reset your device (you can later sync all your data back onto…
  • @MichaelSnasdell @Garmin I called Garmins Swedish support and they stated it was reports from Europe and US regarding this issue but as far as she knew nothing from Asia so far. My guess however is that it's global. This happend when activating a run activity on my FR 955 and now it's stuck?
  • @Garmin can you please put out a message so people know there is currently a global issue with devices? It would be the right thing to do especially as customer services have said "a large number of customers are affected"
  • @Ianmartin_gc8 @GarminUK They are not entertaining a replacement at the moment due to it being a known issue they are working on. If it was on the table, I would be at the post office now sending it back. Lol I know Garmin are great for this stuff, just in limbo and frustrated.
  • Apparently it’s a bad day to be a Garmin watch. They don’t run any CrowdStrike code do they? ? (Widespread reports of issues rolling in on many forums. Hope it’s a quick/easy fix!)
  • @riIakumaaa Garmin watches have historical accuracy issues
  • Crazy how a Garmin InReach can cause such travel headaches. Does anyone know if iPhones with built-in satellite communication face the same issues?
  • @GarminUK - what is going on with your Garmin Connect Service? I have received 54 emails from you since 00:05 on Monday 20th January 2025. ALL ARE IDENTICAL. Anyone else having this problem with GarminUK
  • Has anyone else had issues with returning and receiving products to Garmin UK?
  • @DecodingFoxNews @Office Just another reason why Apple sucks. They also do the same for other companies. Garmin kit doesn't work very well with iPhone because they want you to use the apple warch
  • @CGTCFA Mine goes up and my Garmin says I’m in “stress mode”
  • @Garmin your latest 965 firmware v21.20 is broken. Says I climb 50 flights a day. Sharing here as both my of tickets received no reply -___-
  • @JeffBezos @AmazonUK Dear Jeff, I had a problem with my Garmin HR monitor. It just stopped working, for a moment I thought I had died. Your lovely support agent has sorted out a replacement and I wasn’t expecting that. So, I will soon be alive again. Yours Sincerely, Douglas
  • @Garmin I have a vivoactive 4s. I have had it for only 15 months ans it has stopped working for no reason. It is an expensive watch surely it can it please be replaced?
  • @Garmin @cybergeek98 Not working for me
  • @Garmin Thank you for your reply, now all is fine.
  • Anyone else having issues with Garmin ForeRunner 955’s sending double notifications ever since the introduction of Apple AI? Its doing my head in

  • @___frye Those of us that drove for a living used Tom Tom navigation systems. Or Magellan. Or Garmin. Problem with these was the need to frequently update the software for $80 as roads changed.
  • @Garmin hi, the recent update from Garmin has stopped recording VO2 max. Can you please help by addressing this issue for Vivoactive 4?
  • @geekyranjit Garmin watches are not available at any store offline or online, can we go for Coros Pace 3 sport. Am planning to get fenix 8 from US do they provide service in india if I bought it from US or shall go by Coros pace 3 sport..?
  • @nicolehammond37 Not had any issues with Strava. Garmin connect is good too
  • @StravaSupport is there a delay uploading activities from Garmin currently ? A run I did earlier is not currently reporting through on Strava.
  • @Garmin @GarminFitness trying to login to TacX app to use my new trainer, using my Garmin Connect credentials and it is not working! Do you have a support line for this?
  • @mail2arjunm @dragonizer_199 That doesn't mean that, from garmin killer it means gives almost everything in a lesser price and pretty reliable too, although, they have released 4 updates since the launch of watch addressing some issues and adding features
  • Is anybody else having issues with Garmin? It’s been down since last night. Anyway big wind here in Richmond this morning. Tired to go a run but the wind was so rough I just gave up after 3 brutal miles. 30 mph winds with 50 mph gusts. Limbs breaking, leaves blowing everywhere.
  • @Garmin venu 3 golf activity is not updating yardage during the activity. Is this a known issue? This is only recently -yardage is frozen on the screen
  • @Garmin venu 3 having a problem the last couple weeks with golf activity not updating yardages during the activity. Is this a known issue? Reset and still a problem
  • @technolagnos Is there any battery replacement service for Garmin watches?
  • @Garmin @GarminFitness has by far the worst customer support when you have issues with their product. I’ve been trying to get my garmin issues resolved for over a month and they are incredibly unresponsive. I’m seconds away from cutting my losses and finding another watch.
  • Two days old Flagship Garmin Fenix 8 virtual buttons stopped working ☹️ Dropped an email lets see what happens #garmin @Garmin @GarminFitness
  • Hay @Garmin why does my watch disconnect from my app every day?
  • @SpotifyCares is there a problem with logging into Spotify from Garmin right now? The login screen just keeps loading
  • @NapierHolland @levelsio Try Myworkout 4x4 on the App Store. With a calibrated treadmill you can measure your VO2max within +-2ml/kg error by just performing a 4x4 exercise. And yeah, generally Apple/Garmin underscore those that are fitter
  • Garmin made some changes to their APIs causing the breakage. We are working on getting the service restored ASAP.
  • We are currently experiencing an outage uploading weighins to garmin. We are investigating.
  • We are investigating an outage; uploads to garmin are currently delayed.
  • Garmin watch updates have gotten unreliable lately. I just loaded the latest update because of connect/disconnect messages from watch and everything was okay until an update having to do with "timezones" seems to have reversed the situation.
  • @DoubleYouPowell @Gmwetz Yes they’re most useful for spotting day to day trends. As the error should be the same day to day. Just not so easy to compare between people and devices. My Apple and Garmin are always a few hundred different despite being worn on the same wrist.
  • There we go again, garmin outage after such a monstrous cycle this morning. Can't even gloat on IG ?
  • @ajwaxman Garmin “you’re currently in maintenance” lol
  • @geekyranjit @ravihanda Garmin watches are not available at any store offline or online, can we go for Coros Pace 3 sport. Am planning to get fenix 8 from US do they provide service in india if I bought it from US or shall go by Coros pace 3 sport..?
  • @ravihanda Bought Apple Watch twice. 1st one crown stopped working in 2yrs. 2nd one, battery problem started in a yr. Apple service sucks for watch. Despite many visits to srvc centr on battery issue, they never investigated properly & it conked off in 14 mnths. Bought Garmin & happy now.
  • @GarminSA your service really sucks! We purchased a garmin vivo 4s in 2021 @capeunionmart it stopped working and was replaced in 2022. The new replacement watch stopped working last month and now I am told you only honour a years warranty on the replacement watch.
  • @IBloodyLuvRugby My daughter's Garmin Venu has had issues lately.
  • @Vitality_UK is there an issue linking to Garmin devices? Mine was working yesterday but today it asked me to re-link and it’s telling me it’s failed.
  • @GarminUK ticket - PSC-573144. Having issues with completed activities going in the garmin calendar the previous day ?! Started 28th October. Is there a fix anytime soon as my OCD can’t handle it !
  • @eigenrobot when my fitbit died this summer for the second time i moved to a garmin vivosense 4. couldn’t be happier, the hardware and the app work very well
  • @Garmin The alarm feature is missing in the GARMIN connect app. I am looking online and mine is definitely not the only complaint. Lots of forums reflect the same. Why isn’t this feature available?
  • @Stridekick so glad you guys are back for Garmin. Question: it seems to have some syncing issues still. It will not sync when prompted and only randomly. Is this a known issue?
  • @Garmin The GARMIN CURSE "Wit for GPS" I have tried everything, stopped working 6 weeks agoand everyday I try something new, even had it on a pole outside over night unsed the stars. I cannot be that hat=rd but there are NO FIX!!!!!.
  • @GarminFitness Apple Watch Ultra running watchOS 11.1 and Garmin Connect 5.6. The issue has occurred in 11.0 and 5.5 as well. My Garmin devices are an Edge 840 and Forerunner 620.
  • @singhcredible Another tip: trust your garmin when it predicts great run, and say nah, it’s not working today properly otherwise ?
  • @Garmin none of my activities from 11/2 are uploading. Anyone else with issues.
  • Why is there always an outage with Garmin?
  • In a dilemma, both my @Garmin Cadence Sensor 2 have not been working with iOS (or iPadOS) for me since iOS 17 dropped. This is surprising for a major manufacturer on a major platform. It’s been months since they said they get back to me on resolving this.
  • Just out of interest is anyone else having a problem connecting to the @Garmin Connect app ? I was kicked out and had to resign in and try to reconnect my watch and guess what…it won’t connect !
  • Problems with my @GarminUK @GarminFitness watch not recording elevation (known issue they say) but @Strava is cleverer than Garmin and adds it back - brilliant!
  • Any other Garmin (Venu 2) users have a problem with battery reliability? Twice this week I've had a battery go from ~30% to dying completely while in the middle of a hike. Seems like that last third disappears far faster than it should, or it's misreporting? Apple Watch time?
  • @Garmin Hi. I love your products, recently I bought Etrex Touch 25, but updating Geocaching not working. Where I can find instructions how to update ? #geocaching
  • Anyone else having map issues with Garmin Fenix 6? It records my runs but misses off chunks of the route when plotting the map. Happened a few times now… @GarminUK
  • @petcha41 Unfortunately we don't support Garmin, the two companies that we currently support are Apple Pay and Google Pay. ^Janet
  • Garmin dash cam stopped responding to my voice after their new update nice Plugging it out and plugging it back in helps for about 5 minutes then it goes back to not responding
  • @Stridekick App will not synch with garmin after kinda working for a few days. Any update on timeline for a fix?
  • @JonathanBlood1 Hi, it’s partially syncing. It won’t be reliable until our Garmin partner approves our production API. Currently we have to change the way we backfill data to meet their latest requirement. We’re working on it this week. Sorry for the inconvenience ?
  • investigating an issue with garmin sync
  • Hey @Garmin when are you going to fix the broken Wi-Fi on the Edge 840. Looks like it was introduced in 22.18 or .19 and it’s been broken ever since. I’m not longer getting “intensity minutes” either, not sure if its related, given its WAY undercounting on other devices too
  • Garmin update—still working through several new requirements to satisfy the API. This will be the hardest issue to solve, taking the longest amount of time due to the amount of new engineering work required.
  • Is anyone else having @Garmin problems since the last #GarminConnect update? So over the last few days. The App suddenly won't even try to connect to bluetooth
  • @Squeakie510 Hi there, sorry you're having this problem! We are aware of several issues that have arisen from our upgrade last week. Specifically, our Garmin and Android apps are having the most issues. We are working through them this week. Reach out to [email protected] for more help.
  • @PanenkaSnazorem Hi there, sorry you're having issues! We are aware of Garmin syncing issues and are working through that issue this week. We have partial syncing, but it is not currently reliable. We will post on here once resolved.
  • @Stridekick Is there any update on this? I can't even sync on the desktop website (with Garmin). It attempts to sync and then nothing happens.
  • @Stridekick My garmin was able to sync on Saturday but by Sunday it could not. Any update on timeline to a fix?
  • @DenisTrailin Garmin is a bit weird with the PRs but haven’t had any issues with Strava. Although I rarely go for PRs during a training block.
  • Update on Garmin: During our system-wide update, we experienced an issue with the Garmin connection. We are working on a fix and hope to have Garmin syncing again soon.
  • @dvanders942 Hi @dvanders942! Sorry you're experiencing this issue. We are still working through our Garmin connection and hope to have it fixed soon. Thanks for your understanding.
  • @Garmin help app not working properly. On let's start training find a plan just coming up with cycling and not running. Gutted got a new Garmin watch coming I might have to send it back. There's no updates.
  • @Stridekick I was able to update the app and log back in, but I’m having trouble syncing my Garmin.
  • @Stridekick What a train wreck. Back on and cannot connect garmin it sends you in circles.
  • @Garmin There is still a problem with Mapshare, at least in Costa Rica. Position hasn’t updated since yesterday.
  • What Was Found · WHOOP smallest diff from PSG for total sleep time, light sleep, and deep sleep, but it overestimated REM sleep. · Fitbit Charge 4 moderate accuracy, with the smallest error for REM sleep. · Garmin Vivosmart 4 largest diff for all sleep measures.
  • My son went on a wilderness journey and gave me his inReach link. It worked yesterday, though it took a good few minutes for his stats to appear, then another few minutes before his route showed up on the map. Today, I got a whirling windmill for about 45 minutes, then it showed his travel time and stats, but NOTHING about it on the map. Waited for a while, still nothing. Refreshed the page, now it's back to the whirling windmill. Great. Sure is helpful. Anyone else see this happening? Is there something I can do to fix it? (Yes, tried two different browsers with the same results.) Yes, I have been receiving checkin messages.
