I got my Forerunner 45 watch yesterday and I’m finding your tutorials very useful. Thank you!
I want to add that users can also long press the “Light” button and it brings up some shortcuts and you can turn off the Bluetooth syncing from there.
So, to increase battery life, don't use the watch at all. Now I got it.
Yup, that's what i thought. Xiaomi band 6 with Amoled screen can last 10 days if everything turn off.
he forgot to say. To increase battery life turn off your phone that is a pretty good one.
My thought exactly. It appears to me that with the suggested settings, GF45 is nothing more than an ordinary wrist watch
Thanks for posting - I am also curious how to clear off notifications from the watch as I always have the notification bubble showing?
Thank you for these suggestions!
If you just turn off the notifications feature, does that effect anything with the sleep tracking and sleep wakeup alarm/vibration?
I only want the syncing function without the phone notifications, when I disconnected the phone it seems to be that it nothing, can you do it or do you have to have connected to your phone? If that’s the case I’m send it back
does the display turn off or its just the backlight?
Thank you
You're very welcome! Let me know if you have any questions. Thank you for watching and please consider liking and subscribing! 🙂
Does anyone else’s Forerunner turns of in run mode when the GPS is in around 80-60%?? Why is Garmin not addressing this issue, and there are no videos about it, but Garmins forum seems to be absolutely littered with the same complaints???
i have always been dubious about my garmins battery, i recently went hiking and had it on using GPS for aslong as i could, it would average around 9hrs before it died (from 100%) charged, is this normal?
unfortunately the battery is a real issue in the Garmin watch. it's a real garbage
Well, if you disable all that I don't understand why you have such a watch……
Hye can u show me how to update the garmin watch?
Can u turn off gps???
Yes you can. Push the start button then choose your training like run or walk, then push down button, find the gps menu and turn it off
you left the most important battery life saving tip:
- Turn off the device by holding the light button :)
cool watch face, what is it called?
Did you find how to change the watch face? I didn't like the default and took me a while to figure it out. Hold down the UP bottom. First screen says "Watch Face" so hit the Start/Stop button. Push the Down/Up bottom to select the face you like :)
The title must be: how to convert garmin 45 in casio watch
After off, all this functions you have a simple watch....
buttalo e fai prima
The next tip :don't wear the watch at all.
Seriously what's the point not having all of these you mention on when you a buy a watch to do exactly these things .
A video with no purpose
but you can see the time. it's okay and I think that's enough hahaha
