Notifications- Access required

Every day when I connect my forerunner 235 to mobile app it is said "Access required" on my Huawei P Smart
But all notifications are enabled...

SOLVED the issue on my phone (mi 9t).

It was under battery saver options. I had to turn of "use adaptive battery"

Maybe your phone has a similar option, it's worth to check it out.

I get this too - followed by the text "Android notifications have stopped unexpectedly. In order to restore notifications for your Garmin device, you will need to reboot your phone." I do nothing and things seem to work (texts, etc still come through) but is this a bug?

Ditto with a Garmin Edge on a Honor 7s.

Means i've got to physically load the app after a reboot to try and get it to sync to the phone, and if it drops out, it doesn't appear to reconnect - great for setting up an emergency /incident reporting or using the live track service.

Same problem with my Huawei mate 20. Didn't have that problem before I changed my phone from Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. Is the problem related to compatibility with Huawei OS?

I have the same issue with my OnePlus 3T. Very irritating. Anyone worked out how to resolve?

I have the same issue with edge 520 and oneplus 5t phone. It does not automatically upload activity when this notification is on. What I found is that if I save the ride on the garmin device and restart it, then it automatically uploads the activity.

Same here, Huawei P10 Lite. This is really disturbing...

On my phone (Pixel 2), GCM puts up a message saying that it needs the phone permission each time it is started, but checking the app permissions in Settings shows that it already has the phone permission...
