I’m looking for an alarm clock that doesn’t wake my wife.
I have a Garmin VivoActive 6 smart watch. The vibrating alarm function is awesome but pricey if that’s all you want it for. There’s cheap vibrating alarm watches on Amazon too if it’s something you want to try.

Did anyone else measure the Ohio State 4 miler this morning?
3.93. Also that 2 mile marker was way early. I have a garmin vivoactive 6 and normally it’s spot on. That course was definitely short.

I’ve been out of the loop
My Active 3 looks exactly the same fit on my smaller wrist as yours. I really hope Amazfit releases new premium watches for small wrists. I'd like something similar to the Garmin Vivoactive 6, lightweight, small, thin, round, and with continuous heart rate monitoring.

Garmini jooksukellad
Soetasin täpselt nädal tagasi VivoActive 6, tähtis oli aku vastupidavus (eile laadisin esimest korda, aku sai kiirelt täis). Samuti treeningute jälgimine, padel, jooksmine, jalgrattasöit, jöusaal. VA6 tegi jooksuplaani, mida olen jälginud ja eks näis kas viib mu jooksutaseme körgemale ka. Und jälgib

Nickel free fitness tracker
Thought I’d update this post having bought a vivoactive 6. Happy to say that wearing it daily since Xmas (4 mths) without changing the band I have had no reaction at all.

For those who upgraded to the Watch 4 from earlier generations, do you think it's the ultimate Pixel Watch? What features would you like to see in an upgrade?
Fitbit app has me using a Garmin again. Fit the simple fact it won't let me edit a workout after the fact an add distance. It also does not connect to gym equipment. Says it did when you do the steps but doesn't. Garmin software is simply better. I have a watch 3 45mm LTE. It's pretty but can't do a

Which Watch Buy?
I have both Vivoactive 6 and Balance 2 (XT). If you want simply track your GPS and HR and want a proper looking watch, Balance 2. If you want real recovery metrics and training plans, Vivoactive 6. Remember that it's a bit small device (only 42 mm) and looks quite cheap.

Any better apps for tracking running shoes than Strava/Garmin?
Vivoactive 6 also got the gear tracking update, super handy

What improved your quality of life so much, you wish you did it sooner?..
Using the alarm on my garmin Vivoactive 6. It is a gentle vibration so I wake up calmly instead of blaring phone alarm.

Update: Siri STILL fails to call 911 on LTE on Apple Watch (watchOS 26.4) - No Solution from Apple
It’s very worth, it takes a minute to get used to Garmin UI, but otherwise I’ve loved everything about it, I got the vivoactive 6, lasts 11 days and takes no time to charge, I usually charge it when I shower so it’s never even come close to dying
