Any way to see historical HRV data?

I am guessing not.

Garmin really needs to update the Venu 2 Plus with HRV status and Nap tracking, at least. It's frustrating how few meaningful updates this $400 device has received.

Garmin's HRV metrics have nothing to do with how you feel and it is just slightly connected to what you've done.

First, the health snapshot - it is basically useless: it calculates only one HRV metric and that is rather a random data. If you want a proper HRV snapshot, use any mobile app that uses the camera and flash to measure HRV. They provides zillons of data and those data seems surprisingly relevant to your actual status.

The sleep HRV score (venu 2 does not have this) is more useful, but it depends on heavily what you've done before you went to sleep in the last hours - if you did exercise morning that probably does not count, you must really exhaust yourself during the day to have any affect on sleep HRV. 

So unless you are doing sport on a professional level, it is also useless for you (and useless for 99% of garmin users as well). And that is true for all garmin metrics - they are all bonkers, training readiness, exercise load, everything. These have some background it, but all calculated in a way, that the output is garbage.

The only somewhat useful metric that garmin can produce is the sleep RHR.

Just don't bother - you won't find a single person in the world who utilizes these data - just check youtube reviewers / commenters / influencer / ambassadors - there is none who says that yes, this and this metric reflect my training / status really.

Thanks for the reply. Unless I am not understanding the HRV Status, it plots HRV during sleep, which is useful for many of us to plot and track if HRV is improving or worsening over time. It matters for general health, as well as for performance.

Similarly for Nap tracking. It is a metric that the Venu 2 Plus hardware can track and forcing consumers to buy new hardware for it does not engender loyalty.

As far as I know, using a phone camera to measure HRV is not accurate at all, so I am not sure why you are suggesting it. And why would you defend a company that does not update software features supported by the hardware? Especially when it is a currently sold product, a relatively expensive product, and when the competition provides software features updates as long as they are supported by the hardware.

Perhaps some here have very low expectations: such limited software update support is typical for Chinese companies selling cheap trackers, but then the prices they charge is in line with low expectations. I don't believe that the Venu 2 Plus is in this category.

This response is the height of nonsense. Almost every single thing written is uninformed garbage. I would recommend consulting known professionals to get information as to believing anonymous "experts" on this or any other forum. 

There might be a workaround, after adding a Venu 3 while wearing a Venu 2 for sleep, it looked like it was showing nightly HRV from the Venu 2 connect maybe

So as long as in Connect there is a Venu 3 or other watch with HRV connected it might show?

Polar had similar issue.
With Garmin it might be that the new TrueUp HRV syncing is causing this

Ofcourse the polite thing by Garmin for the Venu 2 Plus a watch released in 2022, only a year old about, would be to add HRV, and if the Venu2 is capable too

The Venu 3 still has plenty of other selling points, like the new sensor, but idk they might want to focus on selling the 3 from a business standpoint, from a customer standpoint it would be a bit of a questionable action, to put it politely

Knowing how Garnin backports features, they might, but they really need to improve their communication sometimes

I would have expected it to show me a map when I select Hike

Not sure why you don't see a map while using the Hike activity profile. I also have the epix and often use hike. The map is one of the default data screens under Settings > Activities & Apps > Hike > Hike Settings > Data Screens

Thanks! I don't have the habit of looking at hidden screens, but this is great!
