Non smartphone setup of Vivosmart 5

Former Member over 2 years ago

Any way that Vivosmart 5 can be setup without a smartphone? (prefer setup via Windows). Garmin Connect not available on PC. Tried an Android emulator but watch only communicates via bluetooth and cannot see the app on the emulator.

You can set it up using Garmin Express on your laptop : https://www.garmin.com/en-US/software/express

I tried that already. When the watch is connected to the laptop via USB cable, the screen on the watch keeps trying to download the Garmin Connect app and it just hangs there.
