Reviews around phone (4.69 of 5)

  • Go into the Garmin software app on your smart phone, laptop, or desktop.
  • My phone is incompatible with Vivofit 3.My conclusion: Garmin Support conclusion doesn't make any sense since the pairing and first 2-3 syncs after changing device settings were successful
  • Very easy to use, to sync with my smart phone through the Garmin app, and also to Strava.
  • Returned it, because it requires the use of a smart phone to be fully functional.
  • Another purchase before I can use this as I do not use a smart phone.

  • but overall it does what I need it to, for a VERY great price.

Reviews around thing (2.95 of 5)

  • Best thing is I don't even feel it on my wrist and don't have to charge it.
  • Only thing I don't like about it is you cant charge it like a fit bit

Reviews around lock mechanism (1.95 of 5)

  • The locking mechanism on the band can be a pain to unlock/re-lock (it doesn't turn freely, which can be good if you want it to stay locked, but sometimes, even when locked, it pops out of the hole and comes off the wrist anyway).
  • The locking mechanism is much improved and syncing is dependable
  • I'm missing or things that don't work as I thought, but so far I absolutely love it and am so pleased to have a functioning activity tracker again.
  • Continually falls off wrist - the 'new' locking mechanism, which was supposed to be an improvement over the first generation, is ineffective even when the bar is in the 'locked' position.
