Hello Berike

You can edit the Focus mode for during activity with these steps:

Hold the middle left button

From here you can edit notification settings etc.

In activity focus mode sms, applications etc. everything (besides phone call) is turn off. That’s the problem. I was trying to switch it on and off again but it doesn’t work:/

Same issue here with my new Fenix 8. I only have calls and texts enabled but still get smart notifications during activities. I am an iOS user.

Doesn't solve it for me either.

Guys, the same was for me in Fenix8.

You need to drill to "Apps" in that menu, and turn that Off at one level down. Although in the upper level menu it seemed to be off.

For the Fenix 8, there is an option to silence sounds and notifications during activities. This is found in the Focus Modes menu:

Hold middle left button
Scroll down and select Watch Settings
Scroll down and select Focus Modes
Select Activity
Select Sound and Vibe
Select Volume
Select Mute All

My Enduro 3 does not notify on how to follow a route, though it vibrates to notify me when I am offcourse. My routes have 'turn notification' enabled. Is this also something yoru engineers are working on or what have I missed?

This is a known issue, and something our engineers are already investigating for a future update to fix. https://forums.garmin.com/outdoor-recreation/outdoor-recreation/f/enduro-3/382597/no-turn-notification-during-navigation
