Major issues with the Venu 3 - Still unresolved

Hi Keke - 

1. This was a design decision. However, we are tracking the customer experience. I will add your feedback to the tracking
2. I have tested with my Android/Venu 3 combo and have only been able to reproduce this with Facebook messenger. We've determined that this issue can only be resolved by the Facebook development team. We would invite you to contact their support via https://www.facebook.com/help.
3. This matches one of the symptoms being discussed in this thread https://forums.garmin.com/sports-fitness/healthandwellness/f/venu-3-series/404350/google-assistant-suddenly-won-t-connect-uninstalling-google-updates-not-working-had-been-working-fine-until-2-days-ago We have been able to duplicate the behaviors and are actively working towards a resolution.
4. I know this wasn’t a focus of your post, however, max Bluetooth range on most Garmin fitness devices is ~ 30 feet. That distance can be impacted by environmental variables and building materials

Hello, some feedback to add:

1.This makes absolutely no sense, I am experiencing the same. That would mean that the phone must be in your hand all the time to check if someone calls you or not, because the function of the watch simply is not made to work properly.

2.This also happens for WhatsApp and Viber.

5. The stress function works very strangely - basically it shows that only when I am sleeping, I am not under stress, which is absurd. 

6. Also a problem with the sleeping indicators - there seems to be something off with the Awake time- every night it shows a constant of 40+ minutes, which is absolutely not true. Has this been reported?

1. It only notifies incoming calls with a single tone and one vibration. Why?

I support , this is should not work like that. 

I need vibration and sound notification for the whole incoming call until I react or it will be answered or dropped. 

I understand that this can eat battery , than make it adjustable manually in settings 

Vibro and Sound notification : 1 time / 5 seconds /10 seconds / 30 seconds etc. 

FWIW in my experience the single vibration is only when the phone is in silent mode. When the phone has sound on the watch continues to vibrate until you answer. Not a solution per se but it is something.

This doesn't apply to me. My phone is not in silent mode, yet my watch still only vibrates once. I don't know why Garmin thinks this is better. I don't know of any other watch that works this way.

One vibration on an incoming call annoys me too. I want them to vibrate for the entire length of an incoming call like they did until the last firmware. Otherwise, the watch is completely useless.

Please bring back continous vibration on calls. It makes such a difference to decide to ignore a notification for two minutes or to miss a call. This is a really bad design desition considering I cannot change it back and was not informed. I thought my watch is faulty and already thought about resetting it.

Thank you.

which makes even less sense. I do not need my watch vibrating wehn my phon is not on silence.

Not saying you are wrong.
