What notifications do you get shown on your FR735 from your Android phone?

Former Member over 8 years ago

What notifications do you get shown on your FR735 from your Android phone?
I'm getting only notifications about calls, sms and calendar.
I would also like to get notifications from other Android applications like Whatsapp and a lot of others that I have installed on my phone.
My wife has Samsung Gear Fit 2 and can choose for every app if she would also like to get notification on the watch.
But I'm getting only calls, sms and calendar notifications on FR735. Do you get something more?

What you tell the Garmin Connect Mobile app for Android to allow.

Follow these steps to notification heaven

Garmin connect > settings > smart notifications > "more" menu at the top right corner > Add.

Also helpful, depending on your notification settings on the phone, you may be in a state that disables notifications, in case you notice that you're not getting any notifications.

Can't find this menu - could you please help? There is a notifications menu item but it only changes between calls and everything or nothing. Thx!

On your phone, open the Garmin Connect app.
On a Droid, click the 3 horizontal bars in the top left of the screen when you open it.
On the subsequent page that comes up, scroll down to "Settings". Click it.
Next select the "Smart Notifications" item from the menu that comes up.
Next, click on the 3 vertical dots in the top right of this screen.
One of the options will be "Add". Click it.
It will then list all the apps on your phone. Click the one you want to receive notifications from.

Bear in mind, depending on your phone and what level of mute you have, you may not get any notifications until you "un-mute" it. Hope that helps.
