Garmin Move IQ
™
When your movements match familiar exercise patterns, the Move IQ feature automatically detects the event
and displays it in your timeline. The Move IQ events show activity type and duration, but they do not appear in
your activities list or newsfeed.
The Move IQ feature can automatically start a timed activity for walking and running using time thresholds you
set in the Garmin Connect app. These activities are added to your activities list.
Connected GPS
With the connected GPS feature, your device uses the GPS antenna in your smartphone to record GPS data
for walk, run, or bike activities (
Recording an Activity with Connected GPS, page 11
). The GPS data, including
location, distance, and speed, appears in the activity details in your Garmin Connect account.
Connected GPS is also used for the assistance and LiveTrack features.
NOTE: To use the connected GPS feature, enable smartphone app permissions to always share location to the
Garmin Connect app.
Sleep Tracking
While you are sleeping, the device automatically detects your sleep and monitors your movement during your
normal sleep hours. You can set your normal sleep hours in the user settings on your Garmin Connect account.
Sleep statistics include total hours of sleep, sleep stages, and sleep movement. You can view your sleep
statistics on your Garmin Connect account.
NOTE: Naps are not added to your sleep statistics. You can use do not disturb mode to turn off notifications
and alerts, with the exception of alarms (
Using Do Not Disturb Mode, page 18
).
