    Garmin vivofit 3 Activity Tracker, Regular fit - Black

    • Go into the Garmin software app on your smart phone, laptop, or desktop.
    • Customer service will just take you through the steps of turning off the reminder alert, once, twice, three times with your smart phone and then with your computer
    • 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
    • If we had any idea that not all smart phones work with the Garmin activity trackers we would not have purchased them in the first place.
    • I can think of is:If don't have smart phone have to buy the ANt Stick to sync with your PCGarmin sells them for $37 but found them on here for $13, bought 2 one for work and one for home PC's
    • That's a shame because it's easy to set up with just the features you want using the downloadable smart phone app.
    • Consequently, Garmin was no longer supporting my phone
    • I sent it back when I found out I would have to spend an additional $50 to sync it to my computer instead of my smart phone
    • I have checked my walking results with the Pedometer App on my smart phone and they seem to report the same information
    • This is one of the most popular android phones out and this should not be the case.
    • Another purchase before I can use this as I do not use a smart phone.
    • They seemed to work for the first week, then neither one would pair with our smart phones.
    • Haven't been able to use it as I need a smart phone in order to operate it.
    • I'm not sure what the problem is, but both of my Bluetooth devices are on Garmin's list of compatible phones/tablets.
    • It sinks with my phone a lot easier
    • Returned it, because it requires the use of a smart phone to be fully functional.
    • It was difficult to sync with my smart phone requiring ten attempts to set it up.
    • Very easy to use, to sync with my smart phone through the Garmin app, and also to Strava.
    • If you don't have a compatible phone, you have to order an Ant Stick, which cost over $30 to use your computer.
    • My smart phone app does a much better job.
