The best video resource for my Garmin 245. Thank you. I keep struggling with hitting a button while I am hiking and losing all my data. FINALLY found the Lock Screen option. d
Thanks for the heads up about the backlight after sunset feature. I forgot to set this on my new Fenix 7x that I picked up this week. These watches are packed with features that can be easily forgotten.
I have a Garmin InReach Explorer+ and would love a tutorial like this to learn how to use it. I finally figured out how to send my location to my husband but I'm not much further than that on using it. d
I find the standard display setting too dim as default. It appears there is no way to adjust this on the Forerunner 245 Music. I notice you can change the backlight setting to be 'always on'. This is the screen display brightness level I prefer. However, will this significant deplete the battery life?
I just got mine and I am thinking of returning it because it is very dim and there is now way to adjust the brightness! There is on other Garmin watches but not the 245 Music.
THANK you! THIS is the tutorial I was looking for as a brand-new user. Newbies, watch THIS one before you watch the 41-minute "Review and Full Walkthrough" video by Gauging Gadets. (I just left a sour comment there because I found that one first and couldn't keep up... I'll try it later after I'm a bit more familiar & comfortable wiht the device. It's only been an hour or so, I'll get there...)
Loving all these 245 videos. Mine comes this week. Quick question, I've started a 10km plan and I'm wondering is it possible to set up alerts for 1mile at a faster pace, 4 min slow jog ×4. With the alerts, or would the alerts keep going off during the slower 4 min pace?
Hello i bouught 2 days ago this watch. is it normal that in the step conunter/pedometer section there is even the bike ? today i walked for 5 minutes then i used bike and in the step counter i saw 9000 steps. so u suppose it included the bike . is there a way to count only the steps?
Hi, great overview, I just got my Forerunner 245 (non-music) 2 days ago, Q- Do I need to keep my Bluetooth enable (on phone) all the time, to connect it with my Forerunner 245? Thanks
Donkey Kong Country - The Trilogy I have that problem to but I watched a video and if you sync it outside it before you run it updates your GPS automatically based on where you synced it making it easier for satellites to find you. So you can sync outside put your phone somewhere, walk to your where your gonna start your run, and it should connect to GPS
Just upgraded from Fitbit Versa to Garmin Forerunner 245 music. Love it so far day 1. I want to shut off notifications txts calls etc to my Garmin. It’s doing it automatically. But I just want to basically use watch for running and sleep tracking. How do I shut off notifications? Thanks
Sometimes I press a button accidentally, and I cannot get back to the watch face. I press the back button over and over again oh, and it simply reverts back and forth between two screens. What is the bulletproof way of Simply getting back to the watch screen. Thanks for your video.
Can you help me with the sleep tracking? I've worn it to bed 2 nights straight and added my sleep time and age is settings but I get absolutely no stats... I can not find any help guides that troubleshoot for this anywhere?
Sure, I recommend checking out my tutorial covering how to customize the watch faces on the 245 ruclips.net/video/fIT7CJ9EAsg/видео.html Let me know if you have any other questions.

Does my iPhone need to turn on Bluetooth in order to do what you did in this video?
No, this is all on the watch only.

What could cause a GPS problem on Garmin Forerunner 245?
I have been using it for less than 2 months and had localization issues ...

You need to slow down - instructions are way too fast for anyone to follow without constantly pausing. Thanks for the video though.
Then pause it bro
Might sound a bit dumb - but how do you get back to the home screen.
Simply hit the back button until you see the watch face. Thanks for watching!
I lost my home page
This device have no altimeter in it... if we connect this 245 with strava while Cycling... can we see elevation gain?
Same question here. I thing I read somewhere that it shows the value but it not quite reliable because use the GPS data.
