Youtube music

5049168 — Fri, 07 Aug 2026 14:16:27 GMT

I recently bought the Forerunner 170 Music, but YouTube Music seems to be unavailable for download on the Connect IQ store app, plus you need a premium Spotify account or Amazon account to able to upload music to your device. I was wondering if there is a way of uploading music into my watch that's free or if YT Music will be added later.

Garmin Coach completely broken: Ignores my 285W FTP, prescribes 2x18m @ 315W, and won't update plans

9478762 — Wed, 05 Aug 2026 05:30:14 GMT

Hey everyone,

I’m at my wit's end with the Garmin ecosystem right now. I’ve spent hundreds of dollars on my hardware setup (running a Forerunner, an Edge Explore 2, and an HR strap), but the software is completely unusable for structured training right now. I need to vent, but I also want to see if anyone has found a workaround for this absolute mess.

Here is the situation:

My actual, verified FTP is 285W. My power curve is completely normal (my 20-min power is 282W), and my power zone percentages are set correctly (Zone 4 is 90–105%). Both my Forerunner and my Edge devices have my FTP manually locked to 285W.

Despite all of this, Garmin Adaptive Coach has completely lost its mind.

What is happening:

Garmin Coach is prescribing me a threshold workout that asks for 2x18 minutes at 315W, with an intensity target range of 289–337W.

Let's look at the basic math here:

The absolute bottom of that interval range (289W) is higher than my actual FTP.

Holding 315W for 18 minutes straight is roughly 111% of my FTP—that's a VO2 Max interval, not a threshold block, and doing it twice for 18 continuous minutes is physiologically impossible. I would blow up in 5 minutes.

The Garmin Coach plan is stubbornly anchored to a ghost FTP of ~318W that it completely hallucinated from somewhere, totally ignoring the fact that my actual user profile and devices are set to 285W.

What I have already tried and checked:

Checked Profile & Devices: Confirmed multiple times that my FTP is set to 285W on both my Forerunner and Edge devices.

Checked Power Curve & Zones: My power curve has no crazy data spikes or glitchy 1,000-watt rides. My zones are verified (Zone 4 is 90-105%).

Paused and Resumed the Plan: Went into Garmin Connect, paused the training plan, force-closed the app, and resumed it. Result: The plan completely refused to recalculate or update.

Edited Training Days: Tried to force a calendar refresh by removing Friday as a training day. Result: The app completely ignored the change, kept the workout scheduled on Friday anyway, and refused to update even after forcing a full sync with my devices.

I'm using Garmin Coach with a general "improve fitness" goal over a couple of months, so it's not even getting tripped up by a hyper-specific race time goal. The backend software just refuses to link up with my device settings, and basic features like editing a plan or pausing it don't even work anymore.

Has anyone experienced this ghost-FTP bug with Garmin Coach, or found a way to actually force these plans to listen to your real FTP?

Spider-Man watch face “Something went wrong, try again”

4370971 — Wed, 29 Jul 2026 03:33:26 GMT

IQ Store “Something went wrong, try again”

Trying to install the Spider-Man watch face on the front page and when I press install it pops up with the error “something went wrong, try again”.

I can install other free watch faces and buy paid ones if I try, just not the Spider-Man one. And for some reason the Toy Story one is apparently unavailable.

Located in NZ if that matters with a FR170Music
Have tried removing and pairing device with no success

ConnectIQ not correlating blood pressure and nutrition data

8422987 — Tue, 28 Jul 2026 12:03:13 GMT

Hi, new user here..

I recently moved from Whoop, Lose It! and Waterllama to Garmin as your Forerunner 970, BP Index Monitor, Sleep Index Monitor and Garmin Connect all funneled my data into one single platform. This allowed me to consolidate not only all those tools but also knock down silos between my critically important data and get better data insights and coaching. However, one thing your platform desperately needs is sodium tracking.. I am a Garmin Connect+ user and while I am also using your BP Index monitor and its great at automating results, and I am also using your Nutrition Tracking but there is no correlation between the two data sets today.

Blunt feedback, you're missing the boat on correlating the data between BP and Nutrition and should be a priority as BP is one of the big health indicators that if not managed is problematic to both training and future health detriment. Example: I accidentally had too much salt last night and today my BP reading was high. I had to investigate my nutrition, which was logged in Garmin, love this feature btw, but I had to come to the conclusion my sodium was higher than ideal ranges of daily intake and the timing of that sodium was ill timed. Garmin Connect+ should be taking my nutrition, BP readings and correlating the data for me to providing findings and make recommendations on my nutrition to help me live better.

Overall this move has been fantastic for me, really like the ecosystem, but there are a few quality of life things you need. The BP to nutrition correlation is a big one.

Venu 2 Plus Voice and Assistant Not Available IOS 26.5

7571535 — Mon, 22 Jun 2026 11:41:24 GMT

Hello,

I have a strange problem. Although I don't find any related topic for incompatibility between iPhone 17 pro / IOS 26.5 I cannot use my watch voice functions. I tried a lot of things to re-add the device by removing all applications on the phone, deleting the bluetooth connection and etc, but I still get that error over and over again, when I try to add the watch with Garmin Connect https://share.icloud.com/photos/037SwPIDRW2nHIsdUb5x_M9Nw

Does anybody else having the same issue?

Garmin Coach Workout Completed and Not Counted Towards Coach Greg Plan.

8313068 — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 14:45:34 GMT

This is beyond frustrating, I started a coach plan with Coach Greg this Thursday. I went out and did the Benchmark Run, I went to Workouts right on my Forerunner 965 watch and selected the workout for the day, I completed the workout, received all my stats back and score. Synced it to my Garmin Connect app and it did not count the run as a workout and still has me scheduled to do the same run again, I don't want to do the same run, I want to move on and continue the program.

The fact that I cannot simply go into the app and manually force it to recognize this as a scheduled workout is absolutely ridiculous. The fact that I cannot do this on the website is beyond ridiculous. There is no option to make it recognize this was a completed scheduled workout.

I can't even go onto the next workout until this is completed, so I'm now forced to waste another day and do the same workout again? What kind of rudimentary technology is this?

I've seen tons of complaints with the happening. We spend a lot of money on a product that doesn't work! FIX THIS!

Is it possible to receive WhatsApp messages on your Garmin?

1803108 — Sun, 14 Jun 2026 10:48:50 GMT

Is it possible to receive a push message on a Garmin Fenix 8 when you receive a WhatsApp message on the connected iPhone 12?

And if so, how?

I tried a lot, but nothing works.

ConnectIQ app payments not supported ("This app is not available for purchase")

MDGr — Wed, 10 Jun 2026 08:16:39 GMT

Hi folks,

So I have Garmin Pay working (cards present and working on watch), however every app in the ConnectIQ store that requires payment through the ConnectIQ store is "not available for purchase" (see picture below). I can view and install apps that have separate payment channels.

When I check Garmin Pay's coverage, my bank and card is listed as supported.

Any suggestions?

Connect IQ will not pair with my Edge 520.

Moultoneer — Fri, 22 May 2026 13:39:37 GMT

Connect IQ will not pair with my Edge 520 even though this Edge is paired with Garmin Connect. When I try add the device to Connect IQ, it sends me back to Connect, where the Edge is already paired. But Connect IQ seems not to recognise that the Edge is paired in Connect.

I've been going round in circles with this. And yes, I've deleted both apps from my phone and re-installed them, and re-paired the Edge 520. It's made no difference.

Does anyone know what watch faces these are? Also are they available on forerunner 165?

Simplified Chinese appearing despite Traditional Chinese setting

5167635 — Mon, 27 Apr 2026 08:38:00 GMT

I am writing to report a localization bug in the Garmin Connect app regarding the language display settings.

Issue Description: Even though I have selected Traditional Chinese (繁體中文) as my preferred language in the app settings, several parts of the user interface are still displaying in Simplified Chinese (简体中文).

Steps to Reproduce:

Go to Settings > Profile & Privacy > Manage Garmin Account.
Ensure the language is set to Traditional Chinese.
Observe the Home Screen where several data cards are incorrectly showing Simplified Chinese.
Observe that certain menus, descriptions, or notifications are incorrectly shown in Simplified Chinese.

Environment:

App Version: 2.45
Device Model: iPhone 15 Pro
OS Version: iOS 26.3
Garmin Device: Venu 4

I have attached screenshots highlighting the inconsistent language display for your reference. I would appreciate it if your team could look into this and provide a fix in a future update.

Best regards

Wind and Wave Glance for Quatix 8

Bob1951Quatix8 — Fri, 24 Apr 2026 14:22:12 GMT

I recently upgraded to a Quatix 8 from a Quatix 7 (my 5th Quatix). I am now finding that the Wind and Wave glance is not available on the Quatix 8 and the VIRB can't be controlled by the Quatix 8. I am extremely disappointed that after spending a significant amount of money to upgrade I have lost some functionality that I enjoyed on the Quatix 7.

Please make the Wind and Wave glance compatible with the Qautix 8.

Edge 1000 not supported

Krakus_ — Sat, 14 Mar 2026 21:30:53 GMT

ConnectIQ on iOS won't allow me to connect to my Edge 1000 to install or update apps, even though the Edge is listed in my Connect app on the same iPhone. The web-based app store is no longer available, so it seems that I cannot load any apps now. Can someone please confirm whether the Edge 1000 is supported? And if not, why not? It's an older device but also a flagship.
