Short incoming Call vibration

Hi . I'm New with Garmin community.  I bought a Venu 2. All is perfect except for the incoming Call notifications. Vibrates only twice.  Is there a workaround so I'll not miss important calls?  Thanks

    Hi, this has been brought up on the Vivoactive 4 forum as well. As far as I know there is not a workaround, adding for clarification and also to create us a user request Slight smile

    Hello! Unfortunately, there is not a workaround. I can create a user request for this. There are no guarantees that any changes will be made.

    I would like to see this changed also. I've missed multiple calls already because it feels the same as messages.

    I have the same complaint about my Instinct Solar. I bought this watch specifically so I'd wake up for a call while my phone is on silent. Since the vibration is so short I'm still missing calls.

    PLEASE! Garmin, fix this!  Vibration should be constant until dismissed or call is answered.  What idiot thought two short vibrations would ever be enough?

    It's not broken. I appreciate that I can choose to ignore calls. I don't want to have to respond to every single vibration, sound, buzz, bell, etc. If you really want this or feel it is broken, then contact Garmin

    I disagree.  They changed it without polling the users, so in the eyes of those that use it, it does not work as expected.  So, for all intents and purposes, it is "broken".  My Vivoactive 3 buzzed until the call was answered or dismissed - the new devices should respond the same way.  At the very least, they should allow user settings to dictate response and give us the option to have it continue or vibrate x-number of times only.

    I must correct myself - my Vivoactive 3 did only buzz twice, but the vibration intensity of the vibration on the VA3 is much stronger than it is in my Venu2, which made it much more attention drawing...

    Ive missed a lot of calls as well because of this. But for me this seems to be broken, because now and then the Venu2 is constantly vibrating when I receive a call but often it only vibrates one time when the call is hung up on the other end. 

    Any ideas or is this bugs?

    Wow I have never had this happen with this Venu 2 or my Vivoactive 4. Just 1 buzz.

    They seriously need to sort this out. So silly only not giving the option to constantly vibrate on a phone call. Sort it out Garmn. So easy to sort too
