Welcome. In front of me, I have Garmin Venue 3, and I'm going to show you how to enable the phone notifications for this watch on the Android phone
0:08
Basically, if you want to receive the notifications from your phone on your watch
0:15
Before we start, if you want to receive the notifications from your phone on your watch, your watch needs to be paired with your phone via the Garmin Connect application
0:24
Once the devices are paired together, we can continue. And now we need to make sure that the required permissions are allowed for the Garmin Connect application and your phone to send the notifications to your watch
0:35
So first, find the Garmin Connect application icon. Once you find it, present hold on it, then tap on the app info
0:43
And here, scroll down, find the permissions, and tap on it. Now, scroll down through this list and as you can see, we have allowed and not allowed
0:53
And for the notifications to work fully, we need to allow the SMS
0:57
phone, contacts, call logs and calendar. So if you see the SMS, for example, on the not allowed list
1:09
you need to tap on it and tap on allow to allow it And it going to appear in the allow list So make sure that the SMS phone contacts call logs calendar are in the allowed list Once they are you can close the page here open the settings on your phone
1:29
So let's find the settings icon and tap on it. In settings, find the notification access
1:35
You can tap on search and type in notification access. oh my bad notification access and you can tap on it
1:45
it will direct you to it once you find the notification access option
1:49
tap on it and here you have two lists again allowed and not allowed
1:54
and you need to make sure that the Garmin Connect application is on the allowed list
1:59
if it's not tap on it then tap on the switch right here to flick it on
2:04
and enable the option and once you enable the option and allow the notification access
2:09
It will appear on the allowed list. And now we can close the settings
2:13
and open the Garmin Connect application. In the app, you can tap on more devices
2:23
Garmin devices, and you should see the venue free on the list of devices
2:28
Tap on it to select it. Here scroll down and tap on notifications and alerts Give me a couple seconds Okay In the smart notifications menu or other in the notifications and alerts
2:46
tap on smart notifications. And here we can customize the settings for our notifications
2:51
And we have general use during activity, during sleep and privacy. General use allows you to customize the notifications for the normal usage of the watch
3:01
so basically when you're using your watch normally without tracking any activity
3:05
During activities when you're tracking the activity, so when you're tracking a workout
3:10
And during sleep is when you're sleeping, basically. First, let's tap on general use
3:15
And here we can turn on or off the notifications as the whole thing by tapping on the switch
3:20
We can also tap on specific types of notifications and customize them a little
3:24
We can turn off or on the notifications. We can turn off or on the tone
3:30
so sound and vibration. And you can do it for the calls
3:34
texts and the apps. Okay, once you're done with the general use
3:40
tap on during activity. And here you can do the same. You can turn off or on the notifications
3:47
And you can customize specific types of the notifications And once you done you can go back In during sleep you can turn on or off the Dunandister mode
3:59
And in privacy, you can select action or gesture. And basically, if you receive the notification on your watch
4:07
it won't display full content of the notification unless you press the action button or perform the wrist gesture
4:16
Okay, and once you're done, you can close the app. you should be able to receive the notifications on your watch at this point
4:22
So I'm going to send myself a message on Discord. As you can see, we got it on our phone and also on our watch
4:34
If you miss the notifications on your watch, you can wake up the screen on it
4:38
and once you see the watch face, you can swipe down or up on the screen. Scroll through the menu until you find the notifications
4:44
and then you can tap on notifications, and here you have the notifications you missed
4:49
Okay, and that's how you enable the phone notifications for this watch on the Android phone
