turning off notifications

Due to an issue I recently reinstalled Garmin Connect and am pulling my hair out becuse the app keeps trying to send notifications to my watch.Forerunner 935 had it for nearly 3 years.
For my purposes the watch is a logger that sends data to my phone app.
I dont want to deal with texts, phone calls, appointments, facebook, music, you name it on my watch.  
I have gone to the settings for GC and turned off every single notification 

-phone permissions = off

-push notifications = off

-email notificaitons = off

-app notifications = all off except for garmin connect, which I am turning off now

I have gone to my phone settings for notifications and am turning off garmin connect now.

Becaause I am getting endless notofications telling me that Garmin Connect wants to connect to my watch (even afer repeatedly checking the radio button for "don't send again"

Not sure if this will work and I seem to remember going through something similr the last time I installed GCM because of a glitch.  Will I miss any functionality but turning off these notifications?


  • Well, it is difficult to help you, when you do not tell what exactly you are getting on the phone. Is it still the message "a device wnats to connect" or is it something else this time? Did you really disable the option Device Connectivity in notifications settings as I suggested previously?

    There must be still some incorrect settings, because I do not see any unwanted notifications anywhere on the devices I have the access to.
