I want to receive only text messages on my Forerunner 935, is it possible?

I couldn't find any option to configure the notifications to receive only text messages, wondering if it is possible to do it.

  • Don't know what it would be on your device, but on my phone (Android 9.0, LineageOS) it is Settings -> Smart notifications -> (All Applications) -> Messaging. That's what the system text messaging (SMS) app is called on my device. Then disallow all the other apps except that one.

    Thanks for reply! I have an iPhone and under settings there is no such option!

    Anyone know how to do it on an iPhone please?

  • Are you referring to your settings on your iPhone? Twinaxx is referring to your Garmin Connect Mobile app. Go into settings > Smart Notifications and turn off everything except for your messaging app that you're using on your phone.  iMessage?

    Tess, thanks for clarification!

    But I don't have Smart Notifications under Settings in my Garmin Connect app! I'm running iOS 12.4.1, does that make any difference?

    I found the following article on Garmin Support, but their suggestion doesn't make sens, if I follow this article, I will receive all notifications from all apps which have Notification Center to ON

    I think you and Twinaxx's suggestion makes a lot of sens and it's the answer of my question, except that as I mentioned, I don't have Smart Notifications anywhere in my Connect app!
