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

To be added to a feature request ticket for more vibrations when getting an incoming call, please answer the questions (Venu 2/2S Users only):
- Do we have permission to contact you via email?
- What Country…

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

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

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 just purchased a garmin fenix 6 and I’m astonished by this. So this watch is able to track the different stages of my sleep but is not able to keep beeping until y respond a call? Seriously? Completelly unacceptable for a company like Garmin to not be able to give their users this basic functionality based on the cost of the device.

What kind of phone do you guys have? I have an iPhone 8 and don’t have this problem. My watch buzzes until I accept or decline the call or it goes to voicemail.

I take it back. I just tested it. It buzzes twice. I just have my vibration set to high so I never miss them I guess.

How is it even possible that watch can vibrate only twice indicating incoming call? It should be configurable to either X amount of vibrations or continuous vibrations until the call is dismissed or accepted. If at least Venu 2 would have strong vibrations but it's not strong even on highest setting, this way missing calls is high probability. Please could you change/fix this?

You probably want too much, see how buggy are their apps in Connect IQ, how buggy is firmware. You're from Poland?

Hi, do you have any update on this please? Is it planned/refused/to be considered....?

My previous smart watch vibrates all the time (*) till I answered/rejected/silenced the ringing (I sent feature request for this to Garmin) - the short vibration of Venu2 is really big step-down for me :|

(*) To be exact - it was even possible to generate custom vibration pattern for different notification types....
