Two Garmin watches paired with one smartphone: Venu 2 for office and home use and Fenix 6 Pro for outdoor activities?

Dear All,

Do you know if I can pair 2 Garmin watches (not simultaneously) with one smartphone (Samsung) and hence one Garmin Connect app? Would I get any problems with health stats etc.?

And a couple of other questions:

  • Could I achieve >1 week battery life of Venu 2 for the following scenario: BT on, pulsometer on, Sp02 off, AOD off (gesture on), medium screen brightness, 2-3 hours of spinbike per week (GPS off), about a dozen of notifications per day, watchface with dark background?

  • Does the gesture feature works reliably in case if my hand lies on a table and I move it just a bit to see the screen? Are there a lot of "false alarms" of this feature?

 Thank you.

    Yes you can pair more then one device to your phone, you just set one as primary and turn on Physio true-up so that whichever device you’re wearing will contribute your activities to Garmin Connect.  The only thing that doesn’t sync up is body battery I believe.

    1.  You’ll have to play around with your settings.  Seems possible though.

    2. I feel like the gesture feature works really well.  I don’t know about “false alarms” as any time you move arm in a gesture it will briefly light up the screen. That said, as I sit here typing it doesn’t turn on, so it does actually take a gesture, wrists twist etc.
