    I notice the same thing for my wife. Turns out the vibration doesn't activate if the screen is on
    And since she never puts the phone down, would never get any vibration alerts. Perhaps this applies to you?
  • Hello fishyfeet!

    Please check the Privacy settings on the vivosmart. Double tap the screen to wake it up, then touch and hold until you get the settings. Swipe through the settings until you see the triangle and select it. Here's more about how they work:

    • Touching "On" - Enables vibration alerts.
    • Touching "Privacy" - Enables vibration alerts and displays notifications in privacy mode. NOTE: In privacy mode, the sender's name and notification contents do not appear in the notification alert.
    • Touching "Off" - Disables vibration alerts.

    NOTE: Alert settings do not affect the alarm clock settings on your Garmin ConnectTm account.

    Hope this helps!
