No Notifications (texts) Displayed

I picked up a 235 a couple of days so far and really like it so far. One thing that I haven't been able to figure out is how to get texts to come through on it. The fenix 3 hr that I'm trying out right now does it perfectly. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!
  • Did you set the appropriate alert to come through on the Garmin Connect Mobile on your phone? I had to select the text app I use (not my phone's standard)

    What is the name of the text app that you use? That sounds strange that they don't have a built-in app that works.
  • Getting off subject, but I use Google Voice for text messages, rather than my carrier (who would then charge a nice tidy amount).

    Open the Connect IQ app on your phone. You should see the 3 horizontal bars (top left). Click on them and choose Settings then Smart Notifications from the menu. You should be able to toggle Text Messages ON/OFF and/or add any other app on your phone (Click on the ... on top right)
