Can't customize it

I've owned this watch for several months. I can't get it to track my stair feature. I have to reconnect it to Garmin connect at least once a day.

The vivoactive 5 does not have a barometric altimeter and cannot track floors climbed or stairs. With regard to having to reconnect it with Garmin Connect every day, it should automatically reconnect whenever the app is opened and the watch is within range. I recommend making sure that the Garmin Connect app is up-to-date, and that check to ensure that Bluetooth is enabled. This FAQ provides additional troubleshooting suggestions that should be helpful: http://ms.spr.ly/6425sEPaP If you continue to have trouble, Garmin Support would be happy to assist you further and can be reached at 1-800-800-1020 Monday Through Friday, 7am - 7pm CST.

Good first watch.

I decided to get a watch after 4 years of running without, and it is a big upgrade. If you are looking for a workout watch this one is pretty solid.

It's an ok watch but doesn't connect to hone well

I bought this watch as advertised as a sports watch yet I can't get golf help. But I love the water proof help.

Absolutely Love

Bought less than a month ago and can’t say enough about it. Best money spent to keep track of your health! Without losing a charge.

Easy to use and full of features

I bought this watch as I wanted to be able to see the face and stats during activity. It is perfect. I love the ease of finding references for use.
