Audio Prompts

Hi - I don't seem to be getting any audio prompts during activities after setting them up. This is with headphones and without. Anyone else have this issue?

I have a residual bug with Audio Prompts.

I have things set up to give average LAP pace alerts, but the pace given is overall average pace.

Anyone else?

My audio prompt worked for a standard run, I set a prompt for 5km and it read it out over my wireless headphones without issue.

I had the same problem with the Fenix 7x under IOS. I managed to solve the problem as follows:
1. remove the watch from garmin connect
2. Delete all garmin devices from the bluetooth list in IOS
3. Uninstall garmin connect
4. restart watch and phone
5. Install garmin connect
6. re-pair the watch with garmin connect

that worked for me.

Before that i tried to find a solution for two days and the support couldn't help me either.

Same, I'm on my 2nd Fenix 7x and both are not delivering audio prompts, with all settings on.

I think its a connect app bug because my Fenix 6 audio prompts were gone too. After reinstalling and repairing both 6 and 7 work fine now

OK thanks, I will follow your steps, just annoying, as I have just connected my new 7X, but hey, it sounds like the only way. Thanks again.

Unfortunately, this somewhat painful protocol did not fix mine

Oh dear, I think I'll just wait for now then and hopefully a software update will correct this at some point! Will have to live without audio prompts.

Anyone know if 7.24 fixes?
