From Apple Watch to Garmin Forerunner 165

I don't think you lose anything on the Running or Runna app side (if you carry your phone, you can be listening to music even if you don't have the Forerunner 165 music version). What you will lose is on the smartwatch side. For me, losing the Apple Pay system was a big NO (The list of Garmin Pay co

Garmin users - do the Runna audio prompts work for you?

If yes, what watch do you have? Trying to figure out what watch I need to have the audio prompts work as expected. My old watch use to integrate with the Runna app seamlessly but ever since I switched to the Forerunner 165 the Runna cues no longer work :(.

I'm specifically looking for the Runna pro

What Black Friday Garmin would beat Pace 4 / Apex 4

I'm very hesitant to get a Garmin because of their app, and the fact that they seem to be moving towards price-locking so many of their features. That said, from a pure watch comparison standpoint - if I could get the Forerunner 265 for $250-$300, I might choose that over the Pace 4. I would definit

Laufuhr mit gutem Preis-Leistungsverhältnis gesucht

Suunto Run, Forerunner 165 music, Bin selber Team Suunto weil ich diese Abo Modelle in den Apps wie bei Garmin nicht mag. Gehen aber auch klassische SmartWatches wie Venu 4, Apple Watch, Pixel Watch 3 oder 4, Samsung Galaxy Watch 7 oder 8

Budget sports watch with GPS recos please

Suggestion ko siguro for better performance overall, mag shell out ka nalang ng extra for a Garmin Forerunner 55 (8k) or Forerunner 165 (10k). Hindi nga lang OLED display yung FR55 but it does the job. Actually sa price ng Forerunner 165 may mga more capable watches na rin from other brands like Cor

Need help deciding between Coros Pace 4 and Garmin Fr 165

Between those 2 (and for your specific use case), Coros, no hesitation. There is NO triathlon / multisport activity on the 165! The Pace 4 has it. That would seem like a big deal for you. As you carry a phone while running anyway, you have no need for music on the watch (which is Garmin's main stren

Why use The Kilo App?

Hi I just got a new Garmin and was looking for something exactly like this, so when I tried to use the kilo app one of the main issue I'm facing is: There is no clear indication of which workout is being selected ( like in the watch after I send the routine). For example even though in my routine I

Battery drained overnight + Scroll wheel and Touchscreen unresponsive on my coros pace 3

I was so strongly considering switching to Garmin after two longevity failures with the Pace 2 and 3, but I love Coros’ UI on the app, metrics and the watch itself. I went with a Pace 4 reluctantly. I borrowed a friend’s Garmin Forerunner 165 for a month and I didn’t like the app and so close to my

G7 & Omnipod

I recently bought a Garmin Forerunner 165 to try to keep a better eye on glucose levels while running (also G7 10 day and Omnipod user). I've heard of some people having a bad time with the G7's connectivity or accuracy, but it's been good for me. HOWEVER - the Connect IQ datafield is hit or miss fo
