Welcome! In front of me I have Garmin VivoMove Lux and I'm gonna show you how to enable the
0:06
phone notifications for this watch on the iPhone. Basically, if you want to receive the
0:12
notifications from your iPhone on your watch. Before we start, if you want to receive the notifications from your iPhone on your watch
0:22
your watch needs to be paired with your iPhone via the Garmin Connect application. Once the devices
0:28
are paired together we can continue. And now we need to make sure that the required permissions
0:32
are allowed for your iPhone and the Garmin Connect application to send the notifications
0:37
to your watch. So, let's open the settings on our iPhone. In settings go to Bluetooth
0:45
find the list of my devices and on it you should see VivoMove Lux. Tap on the info icon next to it
0:50
and here make sure that the share system notifications option is enabled. If you don't
0:55
see this option, open the Garmin Connect application. In the app tap on more, scroll down, tap on Garmin
1:07
devices, select your VivoMove Lux, go to alerts, smart notifications and here we have general use
1:16
for example. Disable it and then enable it and wait couple of seconds. After you re-enable the
1:22
notifications you should see the pop-up on the screen about the permissions. Once you see the
1:27
pop-up allow all required permissions and once you allow them go back to settings, Bluetooth
1:35
tap on info and make sure that the share system option is enabled. Once it is, go back to the main
1:40
page of settings, scroll down, find the Garmin Connect application on the list of apps, tap on it
1:46
and here make sure that the Bluetooth option is enabled. And once it is, close the settings. Now
1:51
open the Garmin Connect application, tap on more, oh my bad, more Garmin devices, select your VivoMove
2:05
Lux from the list and here of course scroll down, tap on alerts and smart notifications and we have
2:15
general use and during activity. General use is when you're using watch normally and you're not
2:20
tracking any or recording any activity and during activity is when you're tracking or recording the
2:26
activity like running, cycling and stuff like that. First let's tap on general use. Here we can turn on
2:32
and off the notifications and we can also select the type of notifications we want to see on our
2:36
watch. We have all calls and texts only and calls on. So customize it to your liking, then go back
2:42
tap on during activity, select the ones you like and then go back to the device page
2:51
You will see that the settings applied and you need to sync the devices together to apply them
2:57
on your watch. Or rather settings were saved but you need to sync the devices together to
3:03
apply the settings. So tap on the sync button right here, wait until the watch is done syncing
3:09
with your phone and at this point you should be able to receive the notifications. So I'm
3:12
gonna send myself a message on discord. As you can see we got the notification on our iPhone
3:21
and also on our watch and that's how you enable the phone notifications for this watch on the
3:27
iPhone. Thank you for watching. If you found this video helpful please consider subscribing to our channel and leaving the like on the video
