Better than Strava
-- Martinsthoughts, 2025-05-03

### *---- "Really bad app download"
The phone app took 45 minutes to download - terrible in the 21st century. I considered returning the watch and replacing it with the competition. I don’t recommend getting a Garmin watch.
-- za_grunt, 2025-04-23

### ***** "Tania"

-- Tania Joubert, 2025-04-17

Since my last update every time I open the app I have to first ‘forget device’ in my phones Bluetooth settings then repair my watch to my phone. Every time! This is super annoying. I have the latest updates on both the watch and iPhone.
-- __Cal__, 2025-04-15

### ***** "Great app"
Love it
-- Peter Nasser, 2025-04-01

### **--- "Sleep Data Not Syncing"
Overall the watch and application integration have been great, but following an update in December 2024 my sleep data no longer syncs from my Instinct 2 Solar Surf to my phone. I’ve tried application updates and checked all settings, and everything is set correctly, my watch is recording the data but it’s not syncing to the phone.
-- PopArtSuicides, 2025-03-22

### ***-- "It’s just stops syncing randomly"
I have to consistently delete and redownload the app after a while of use because it stops syncing to the watch and nothing works except if I delete the app entirely and reload and I reset the watch again. This is frustrating.
-- Mariam Suliman, 2025-03-10

### *---- "App lost all historical data"
When update was installed, all my data went missing
-- Bev Bouwer 12344, 2025-03-07

Garmin connect has not been syncing lately. Please advise what would the problem be? I have an instinct 2 watch.
-- MxoMbiza, 2025-03-05

### *---- "IOS problem"
Get the auto reply starting for iPhones
-- IOS no auto replies, 2025-02-22

### *---- "Poor"
This app is very poor managing the interface with my Forerunner music. I’ve not been able to link to my music providers and therefore wasted a lot of money and getting a music option on my watch.

there’s always an error when trying to connect to the server. If it’s me, that’s it fault well, then I still blame the Garmin connect app because it is It’s not intuitive and the help is insufficient.  honestly, it just doesn’t work. Poor
-- @Mermaid_nix, 2025-02-17

Garmin Connect is great, I love how it has simplified my life. It is everything I wanted. Keeps me motivated!

Garmin Connect is helping my family get fit and with the challenge section it makes getting fit fun.
-- Jacques Coetzer, 2025-01-07

### ***-- "The app is ok but.."
Nearly every time there’s an update to the app, I have to enter in my email and password. Why can’t it save information?
-- Robpvh, 2025-01-06
