I've had this watch for over a year now and I absolutely love it! I have the black/rose gold one and it has gotten a lot of compliments, people don't realise it's actually a smart watch because it looks so classy! I like monitoring my sleep, work outs and steps. The app gets updates fairly regularly too which is nice!
Thanks so much for this thorough video, I’ve had my watch a week and didn’t know I could do half the things you cover on it! The instruction manual is tedious and much rather watched you talking us though all the settings :)
The luxe is a big step up from the orginal vivomove here. One the orginal sleep tracking was poor, with the new luxe version and the oxy sensor on sleep tracking is now accurate. The screen is sharper with 2 screens and colour and can also read it in sunlight. Love the luxe, classy. Had the orginal vivomove and tried to love it, but hands often went out of sync. So far the luxe and cheaper versions have corrected many of the issues plaguing the original and the oxy sensor helps with far better sleep tracking.
This was great! One suggestion I have is to acknowledge the watch arms go to 10:10 when using the menu to be ‘out of the way’ if you will - I thought my watch time was messed up at first 🤣
Do you know how long the watch will stop moving when at glance after unlock it? It doesn't move until I unlock and check notification on watch but then my watch hand keeps moving everytime I glance at it
Thank you so much for these vivomove reviews! Has helped me a lot.. their different models are very confusing & hard to find info for. So helpful of you! 🌟🌟🌟
Thank you so much for this excellent walkthrough. I bought the watch on the strength of it being a Garmin and looking lovely, but the manual is poor. Your review has helped me feel happy about the investment I just made - although I'm sorry I only found you after I'd bought it, and so haven't used your affiliate link (although I am UK based anyway.) Thank you again, I shall definitely be coming to you first in the future!
I'm glad my video made you feel better about your investment. It's a great watch! I recommend checking out my playlist of tutorials for the Vivomove HR ruclips.net/p/PL8griS8Ww-Kl7XBJ0xuJXU07079zEn1gk Thank you for watching! :)
Great Video, this one is the best one for this watch. Question, I do locate the serial number for this watch, I don't have the original paperwork or box. Thanks
Glad the video helped you! Unfortunately there is no way to add new activities. This video should so you more information the activities. Thanks for watching! ruclips.net/video/oVkNc6-cP_8/видео.html
I have one of these watches but I have not been able to control the hands.... Long Hand or the Short Hand. Can you please describe how to set the time for this watch?
Great review as always. I have been confused as to which Garmin tracker/watch to buy. I don’t need too many features, just basics really and want it to be for daily exercise only, not to wear 24/7. I have a beautiful Seiko solar watch to wear as a dressy watch but could wear this too in a certain setting. Thanks. From Tasmania where it’s been snowing.
Thank you, I'm glad you found it to be helpful! The notifications will be shown for all notifications on your phone. You can change this and select which apps you want to show up. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Yes, I actually have a tutorial covering this subject :) ruclips.net/video/BgMnyQ3Aojk/видео.html Let me know if you have any other questions. Thank you for watching and please consider liking and subscribing!
I have the Vivomove Style/Luxe. It sends out a red light from the back of the watch while trying to sleep at night... usually early hours of the morning. What does this indicate? I thought it could be a result of monitoring my blood oxygen, but I'm not sure. It is somewhat alarming without finding any instructions to explain why it is happening. No doubt it is something I really need to know how to respond.
Very nice review, I like your talking, I wish everyone was like you so nice 😚 greeting from iran, but a question relating to notification , can I get notification and call notice from messaging app on my phone also or the notification is limited on sms and call from the phone on the watch?
@@maitdavis9006 yes, it appears it doesn't...and the hrm dual isn't compatible with the connect app either. Now there's a shite situation I find myself in...
Hi there, thanks for the video! :-) I like this watch over Apple's BUT concerned about warranty and after sale service. Any idea how Garmin is when it comes to customer service once the product is purchased? Thanks in advance
Glad you liked the video! I have contacted Garmin customer service several times and they have always been very helpful. In the past with hardware issues they have replaced or sent replacement parts for defective items. When it was related to software issues they transferred me to software specific support who was able to walk me through the steps to fix the issue. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Great review mate. I was wondering I can get call notifications on my watch but not text message notifications. I’ve tried to see if settings were all correct and seemed ok but no luck. I was wondering if you’d experienced it and how you fixed it. Thank you

Getting this watch after watching your video. Super informative. Thanks
Thank you so much for these vivomove reviews! Has helped me a lot.. their different models are very confusing & hard to find info for. So helpful of you! 🌟🌟🌟
Can one show the digital time at the same time as the analog? - or does the hands move "away"? thanks, Levi in Sweden

Thanks
Thanks, finally found how to change to celsius. Can't believe these settings are not in the cellphone app.
Thank you for your video! I have a question; can you please check if with new app updates, does Vivomove HR now get the new ‘Body Battery’ feature?
Great video! Is there a setting to add a new activity type to the watch screen? For example, cycling. Thanks!
Glad the video helped you! Unfortunately there is no way to add new activities. This video should so you more information the activities. Thanks for watching! ruclips.net/video/oVkNc6-cP_8/видео.html
I have one of these watches but I have not been able to control the hands.... Long Hand or the Short Hand. Can you please describe how to set the time for this watch?
Is there a way to turn off the at a glance feature so the screen only turns on when tapped?
You missed a very important detail. You didn't say how long you found the watch lasts before it needs a charge.
These videos are great and very helpful. Thank you.
Very helpful video! I dont know how to turn on the text message notifications?
How do the alarms work? Does it vibrate or make noise? Or do you just get a notification?
All 3. Here is more information about them. ruclips.net/video/dSTvd04AOUM/видео.html Let me know if you have any other questions.
I love the look but have such a hard time using any of the features. I would really love to send it back but I think it is too late
is it possible to allow the heart rate or steps to remain visible on the watch without accessing the widget?
Great tutorial but why does it continually buzz in the evening showing it's disconnected from the phone?
Thanks for the review, good job! How works the running mode? I understand that this one does not have gps.
Thanks! Can it also get notifications from WhatsApp and can it connect to Strava?
Yes and yes! I've had it since May and it does both things. Only drawback is lack of GPS :(
How does it look like when you receive calls? Does it said who is calling or just notification for call?
Seeing your reflection made this video worth watching 🤣😂
Hi, is distance count same as how many Kilometers we have moved?
Hi how can I record yoga activity?? Is it possible with this series?
Does it tracks indoor swimming correctly

You should check out the Garmin Forerunner 45. It seems perfect for your neededs.
Does it support music playback?
I got the watch as gift and don’t have charger. Please help me to find out the right charger. Please please
Very helpful tutorials. But i have a question. The notification it's only for text and call or social media too?
Thank you, I'm glad you found it to be helpful! The notifications will be shown for all notifications on your phone. You can change this and select which apps you want to show up. Let me know if you have any other questions.
@@GaugingGadgets can't seem to turn ON the notification for email or text msgs. Would you please let me know where to go?
9:10 I need one of these for "find my car"
Thanks mate, very thorough.
awesome review, is there any chance to turn it off? cant find it on the menu
Can you turn off the constant heart rate monitoring? Also does it have WiFi?

How does this differ from the Garmin vívomove Luxe?
Does it have tap pay function?
I really need help done gone cant connect phone pics it up however lastcthr sasscode nd need a serial nd number
Great review mate. I was wondering I can get call notifications on my watch but not text message notifications. I’ve tried to see if settings were all correct and seemed ok but no luck. I was wondering if you’d experienced it and how you fixed it.
Thank you
Does have altimeter, barometer and thermometer feature?
Unfortunately it does not.
Gauging Gadgets any recommendation?
If these are important to you the Vivomove 3 has all but the thermometer.
What year model?
Heart rate cannot be set as one of the glanceable widget.
Which is better? This or vivoactive 3?
I prefer the Vivoactive 3
Thank you 🙏
