14.15 breathing variation doesn't work properly

mariuszpurwin 7 days ago

From time to time it doesn't work. It says that Pulse Ox is not enabled.

Since this feature is added to Venu 3 I enabled POx during sleep. Below screenshots from Pulse Ox and sleep cards.

Looks the same here. I also have a pulseox turned on during sleep and no breathing variation data, exactly what you have

I have a similar problem. For me, it works for one night then stops. Power down/up the Venu 3, then breathing variations works for one night again then stops. Yes I have PulseOx enabled during sleep.

My Connect version is 5.13.1.2 running on iOS 18.5. Powered down/up Venu 3 May 28 - breathing variation data ok. May 29 - no data. May 30 - no data. May 31 (today) - breathing data ok again.

Yes I would send you log files. Tell me how to extract them.

I’ve turned on the Pulse OX at night and turned my watch on and off multiple times but since the update my breathing variation feature has never worked.

I am having the exact same problem with my Garmin Venu 3s.

Came here hoping to find the answer to the same issue. Google Pixel 7 pro running Connect 5.13, no build number.

Breathing variation has yet to show data. POx has been on for sleeping since I got the watch 4 months ago.

Happy to share log files.

quick update - yesterday decided to check for an update on my Venu 3, and there was one available. I installed that (SW v 14.15), and this morning the message about needing to enable POx was replaced with the graph. In the app on my phone I can see the text rating (Minimal) and the graph, which at least for last night shows a flat line across the bottom axis.
