Can't add second user to garmin index scale

Installed app, everything set up. Can't search my contacts, don't want to add connections via social media. Not sure if thats the way it is suppose to work. When I enter the name of the second user, I want to add, I see numerous names that I don't even recognize. I must be doing something wrong. Does any one have a step by step of how to add a user to a Garmin Index Scale? I'm thoroughly frustrated with the "add user" setup! If there is such a thing!

    Inviting users with the Garmin Connect Mobile App
  • Good day.

    Have close story...

    But in my case, invitation coming, but no chance to accept it.
    I'd like to use Garmin index together with my wife. So, I add Index to my Connect. Made all settings. All fine, it's working with my account properly.
    So I send invitation to my wife, when she try to accept it, fill all data, and press "done" in her mobile Connect IQ (iOS) received error :

    "deviceXms or deviceId cannot be null.
    Please check device id is valid for
    passing GEMS verification".

    I've tried to reset Index and add it to her first and after to invite myself. No success - get error in same place (I have android) but without any comments.
    Tried to add user from web page. On click "Done", the button just become gray and no any further movements...

    Firmware of Index is 3.0

    Any ideas how to fix it?

    Same here. Bought this because my gf is finally trying to do something with her body, but we are not able to connect her on the scale. Thanks for any advices here from the Garmin team.

    Same problem with the second user adding... I'm very disappointed about the product. ??
    Is there anybody from Garmin to offer some solutions?
    Thanx
  • My scale can't tell the difference between our 33 pound son and my 123 pound wife. Finally figured out if you tap the scale it changes who the data is assigned to. Hopefully this fixes the issue of having a toddler constantly use the scale and junk out my wife's data on Garmin Connect.
