Improvements for Garmin Venu

Hi, it would be nice to make a list of possible improvements to see if they are heard by Garmin.
Between all of us we surely have many ideas for improvements that could include to make this a great watch.

For me:

- When doing custom training sessions, it would be great if they include videos of each movement or images, to know what each one is. There are many and it is not well known what each one does.

- When you do a personalized session, let the animations come as when you download an already built one.

- The measurement of sleep, at least detecting when it starts, has a lot of improvement, it detects me that I start an hour or two before.

- It would be nice to be able to see the COMPLETE notifications and not be cut.

- You cannot schedule recurring events or goals in the calendar. Very important for me.

- Another shortcut to the right could be added.

- A flashlight option would be nice.

- Be able to send changes from the PC without having to connect the clock by cable.

- With watch faces that are not garmin when you turn the wrist it takes a long time

- Audio messages would be fine in garmin coach / normal race (I don't know if you already have it)

- To be able to create some personalized activity with personal tasks in which we can establish objectives and
count.

- More apps / clocks from garmin in the store to take advantage of it.

- Be able to follow challenges with unknown people / groups (I don't know if you already have it)

- The strap is very uncomfortable (mine is the blue model)

- Sometimes gestures on the touch screen fail.

For future watches:

- Steel case and sports leather strap. Has anyone had a huawei watch gt or gt2?
 They are super cute watches, the strap is super comfortable leather, the steel body, the case somewhat larger
 And most incredible, this comes standard on a watch that is worth half. It is true that it does not have
 so many options, but putting a comfortable and sporty steel case and leather strap doesn't have that series
 So expensive when worn by a half price watch with such good results.

  • Garmin dosent read the forum in an proper way. Send it to the support, get the answer "We will give that to the team" and wait at least 1 year. After that you know that they dosent care.

    Garmin has one of the worst Sleep Detection on the market. I just write this to the support since end of 2018. They dosent care and they think its fine.
