Vivoactive 3 Jaybird Vista Headphone Connectivity

Sorry to hear that.  I've not been running much recently due to injuries, but on my 2 runs this week the watch and headphones have worked fine.

Maddeningly after nearly a year of no issues, I’ve been back to square one for the past month or so despite no known updates to either watch or headphones.  I’ve given up and accept I need to take my phone with me for music.  At least when it comes time to change my watch, I will have more non-Garmin options if I don’t need music functionality.

I'm unable to post directly to this thread, but are there any improvements?  With no warning, my watch started disconnecting from the headphones again.  There is no update to either the headphones or the watch.

For a while I found that letting my headphones connect with my phone first, before trying to play music from my phone, seemed to help.  No longer seems to be the case.  Garmin appear totally disinterested so my solution will be to buy another brand next time.

Do you happen to know of another GPS watch that has music? At this point, it would be a good solution.

I also work in a specialty running store, so I can let others know about this issue (and how it was handled) as well.

I am trying to bypass this issue downgrading to old Vivoactive 3 Music beta software versions. Follow up here: forums.garmin.com/.../repository-of-old-vivoactive-3-music-software-versions-music-cut-out-issues

I'd love to hear how that goes for you!
