Terrible

Difficult to find What You want . Pc version is terrible too

Dependable Information

Not that there havent been issues but I find the information I get from connect is valuable and consistent.

Nice improvement

As with anything Garmin does, there can sometimes be glitches. But they constantly roll out fixes, upgrades, & patches. Love the new app. Very powerful & reflects whats available on their powerful web platform. Love it with me awesome fenix 3.

Not so great even when it works

Update 5-7-16 Constantly crashing when opening if device is connected to Bluetooth. The app is ok when it works, but crashes every time its opened now. ------ The app is..."OK" but it often wont sync to the servers. Then my Garmin Fenix 3 becomes useless. The app features are pretty weak, but its never crashed. Hope Garmin fixes their persistent server connection errors.

Like it better

Better than the vivosmart with HR strap. I recommend playing with it before using it. Its very busy but nice once you get used to it. Love not having the strap.

Vivofit

I love it, almost a year and a half old and I have not needed to change the battery. I dont wear a watch anymore since I always have the correct time and date. The step and mileage counter have made me more aware of how much exercise I am getting. Syncs in a minute with Bluetooth and the charts look great.

Sleep

Very inconsistent, does not automatically detect when Im asleep. App needs improvement and simplification.

Nice but needs offline sync

I like that the app offers a lot of information once you get used to it. However, Id love to see my current stats without an internet connection. It relies heavily on a connection to Garmin servers to sync my device ☹️

Good watch

I like the app, but there are times when my watch (vivoactive) just will not sync with the app on my phone. It is very frustrating. I also dont like the inability to edit a recorded workout. I do like the fact I can run without my phone and still live track the workout.

Like the app

But randomly decides to not accept my corrections on sleep time, and of course the entries Im correcting are so ridiculously off that they dont even make sense. One day it decided I sleep for two hours... While I was at work. In fact I had slept during my normal set that I told it was when I sleep.

This Garmin is the bomb!

I have been using a garmin for several years and they have never let me down. I started several years ago with the Forerunner 310XT then went with the 910XT. I still love my 910XT, but bought the Vivoactive to keep up with my steps. It has more than satisfied! I use it to swim, run, bike, and even golf every now and again. It has worked like a charm!

Great Compared to FitBit

I am using this product for a week now, and I custom defined my steps and this unit is so accurate and linked to UndAmor MyFitnessPal its a great resource and is helping me greatly. I would recommend to buy this product!!!

Problems again

I have no idea why, but suddenly the app stopped displaying calories properly. When I use the HR strap, the calories are recorded in some areas of the app, but in the "calories " screen nothing is shown on the graph, and the active calories for the day show negative! This also means that the weekly average comes out negative. Ive been waiting for an update to fix this, but for the past four weeks have seen the defect. For an iPhone 5, it would be much better to be able to go back to the "classic" display. Its easier to read, wasnt so busy, and I never had these glitches.

Love it!!!

Best app on the market for runners/walkers at all levels. Works seamless with any of the Garmin fitness bands and watches

Would be ZERO stars if I could

Used the be a decent app, but the last update killed it. Cannot sync my vivo fit anymore. Worthless.

Great App with beautiful interface

Im surprised by some of the negative reviews. The app is one of the best that Ive used. It takes a bit of swiping and tapping to get used to the various levels. However, I consider myself a serious athlete and this app provides a lot of useful data. I use it with Timex Training Peaks and the data transfer is seamless. The only manual input I do is to transfer my weight from my Fitbit scale. Definitely a five star rating for me.

I love it, but Im not type A

Love it. Keep improving it. Thanks!

Awesome but sometimes frustrating

I really like this app for the most part. I have the Vivosmart. Sometimes it doesnt sync like its supposed to and I have to try to sync it several time before it actually works. Otherwise, its pretty awesome.

Wirks great!

Easy to use and does what I need. Keeps track of my activities accurately.

Love it

So convenient! Saves so much time from having to login to computer and garmin to upload.
