When I am using the golf app on my FENIX 6X my phone talks randomly, what is it saying. The golf app is not open on my phone. The phone is in the golf bag. The voice says numbers that do not mean anything to me.

Hi.  Has there been any further progress on this. I am having the same issue. 

Mine does it also. It says Lap 4.17 or whatever never it chooses. It's so strange. 

You may have figured this out already, but I just saw in the Garmin Connect app under Device Settings> Choose your watch> Activity Options>Audio Prompts - toggle off. I literally just found it and will be playing tonight. I'll keep an ear out to see if it stops.

Hi Katie, Yes it is voice prompt to tell you how much you had walked or buggied on the golf course or any activities. You found it and it should work! Cheers!

I fixed this by turning lap alerts off on my watch. I can't remember where.

I see that in the current Fenix6 beta firmware, there's this note:

17.72 Change Log Notes:

• Added setting to enable/disable workout audio prompts.

Hopefully this means they added a per-activity type setting, so we can disable the audio prompts for golf but leave them enabled for other activities (like running/cycling)

Do you know if that's the case, Garmin-Chris?

PS. I can't seem to @ mention you Chris, your name doesn't come up in the @ list.

I am not running the v17.72 Beta to be able to track down more information but I will definitely be keeping an eye out for the official release to look into it more.

How can I turn it off though?

You can always turn your alerts off and on. Keep in mind, if you turn off the audio alert to not be heard during Golf, remember to enable it again for other activities when not golfing.

• Enabling Spoken Audio Prompts in the Garmin Connect App
• Playing Audio Prompts During an Activity

Hi, I'm having the same issues. It's quite annoying particularly when someone else is playing their shot and silence is preferred!
