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?

Same problem here - no audio prompts to phone with 7X Sapphire Solar firmware v 7.20, iphone 13 (ios 15.3, Connect app v4.51.0.40). Frustrating because audio prompts worked fine on my old 5X Plus. Have…

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?

Not sure, let's hope so! I really find the audio prompts helpful!

Hello evryone, i doubt it is merely a Garmin Connect issue. Fenix 6 Pro connected to same phone and version was working fine.

I have now purchased a Fenix 7 solar and the problem appears. I also did what 9977662 says but no luck with that. Still no audio prompts. They work if you pair Bluetooth headphones directly to the watch.

Happy to report this issue is now fixed for me. Perhaps new version of Connect?

Can you post the Garmin Connect app version number? Thanks!

0 paulsmith1924 over 3 years ago in reply to tr3climber

Sure, the latest ios Garmin connect app version is: 4.51.1.3.

Hi yes it works with the update GC to 4.51.1 but with some glitches. For me the heart rate audio prompt only says the heart rate, not the % Max HR or % HRR even if they are selected. ..... Why Garmin cannot release an APP on IOS that do not show all these bugs ..... tired

I know what you mean, but I was very pleasantly surprised to hear the audio prompts this morning. It's taken a while, but we got there!
