It's not possible to synchronized Vivofit with Connect by Bluetooth for me

Also, you should see the word "Pair" - not sync on the vivofit. You need to hold the button longer to get it into pair mode.

When I tried to hold Viuvofit button more time - it switched to Sleep mode from Sync mode.

In the first 24 seconds of your video, you pair to your phone's bluetooth. That is an incorrect procedure.
Go back into BT settings and delete the device. Then go into Connect and pair in the Connect app (not the phone).

How to pair program ? it's not device.
Also, I.ve updated to 2.13.1.1 - result all the same.
I unpaired Vivofit from Bluetooth, opened Connect.
There is no such option - pair program only
we have:
- Dashboard
- News Feed
- Notifications
- Social
- Devices - I tried to add Vivovofit here - no result
- Help
- Settings


Could you indicate how to pair Garmin Connect Software and Bluetooth? I didn't quite catch how to do this :-(

You neeed to hold the vivofit button until the word "PAIR" appears.
In the app, choose devices and press the + sign and go from there.

Presumably, you have a profile setup in advance. If not, it might ask you.

The following youtube video should help although you may already have done of it.

Place the Android device within 10 ft. (3 m) of the watch.

Touch 'Devices'.
Touch '+' in the upper-right corner.

It's very interesting for me :-(


From one side I have 2 devices in Express:
Fenix 2
Vivofit



When I tried to synchronize data by ANT+ - I've got the following message

Thanks for detailed explanation Phil.
This method doesn't work for me.
On the stage - "Touch 'Search for Device' in the Garmin Connect Mobile application."
PAIR text is blinking on Vivofit for 30 sec. after that - Device not found.
ok. I'll show you vide example today. :-(

Hello niktibik !

pshare has provided some great information for you here, but I did want to be sure you are removing the ANT stick before trying to pair with the phone. If the ANT stick is plugged in, the vivofit will ignore the phone and try to connect to the ANT stick.

oops... you are right.
ANT+ connection was inside whole time of testing :(

When I paired without connector - pairing was fine !!!!

Watch video example here - www.youtube.com/watch

BUT, at the end disconnecting was occurred.
Does it mean, that I have more data for synchronization ?
-----------------
Why connection was lost during uploading ? see video ...
----------------



Finally, I've added Vivofit to Dashboard with help of Adnroid program.

After that I tried to synchronize data with help of ANT+ and Windows PC program.
All done fine.
Here it is result

One more question:
next week I will have Fenix 3

So, I have Fenix 2 in Express, Vivofit...
When I 'll add Fenix 3 - who will be main activity tracker for me ?
I want to set - Fenix 3.

Should I remove Vivofit from Devices in this case ?
It's not good for me
Please advise!
