This video was EXCELLENT! I am NOT a tech guy, and I must've watched a dozen or more GARMIN SQ videos, which were average, at best. But YOUR video went into some awesome detail about USING the watch MORE FULLY! (I'm running the NYC Marathon in November of 2021 and utilizing my watch more fully is a huge plus ON SO MANY LEVELS!) Thank you!!
this video was so helpful! i'm pretty good with technology but having this 17 minute video was much more helpful than trying to figure everything out myself for hours. super excited about the fact that i can customize my screens for my workouts!
Thanks. I'm VERY non-techie and have had this watch for a year and have been very frustrated trying to learn how to use it so I've just thrown it in a drawer several times. You've given me hope!
i bought mine open box from ebay. took a day to set up my preferences, and after that it went pretty smoothly through all my work outs. The two buttons on the side feel very homely and intuitive. For the money, it can't be beat. It's not so rich in features, but for fitness tracking with some key smartwatch features, it can't be beat for the price. Wished the UI was a little smoother, considering how it doesn't really seem so intensive
Thanks for the detailed video! Before this, I almost returned it because it was like rocket science. Your vid helped me make sense of the watch. Thanks again!!
Thank you! I needed this info and you explained it at a good pace, without covering the watch face and phone screen while explaining. I am looking to use the sleep tracking and can't find it! thank you
Thank you for this video, I was having a few issues setting mine up . This video explained everything I needed to start me on the right track,, looking forward to seeing the music add on video.
Thank You making this video I just received my garmin venu sq , I followed what u said, I wish garmin wouldn’t dim I really don’t like thst feture especially when running
Hey, Thanks for the info. I want to change the face and the IQ store says to update my Venus thru express. However, express says my watch doesn't have enough memory to upgrade. What is the solution to this please?
You could add some info regarding "screen comes on" when moving your wrist? I seem to have twiddled something and it doesn't do that anymore. Also phone seems to disconnect and reconnect unexpectedly.
Have any of you found a way to keep the screen on for longer, mine goes off after maybe 2 seconds, so if I pause to look at anything it goes off and you can't get it to come on again on the same screen.
You missed the one part I started watching this for. At 2.24 section. My new watch doesn't show the screen with English etc that is shown when you removed the plastic screen cover. Mine just shows a little watch on the left, then moving dots heading towards the right and a square with a blue circle there. I have tried all things and cant get the controls menu or anything :(
Thanks! You can track calories burned in the My Day area of the watch by swiping up. For calorie intake you'll need to install the MyFitnessPal app on your phone or mobile device and sync it with the Garmin Connect app. This should be a free feature as far as I know.
How long does it take to charge it from out of the box? Also I have a previous version of a garmin, can I transfer this data to my new Venu SQ or will I loose all my stats? Thanks Joanne
Honestly when I started charging I walked away for a while and when I came back it was charged. It was probably about an hour to charge. If you have a garmin account online and your previous watch was synced to your garmin account then I believe all your data would be accessible to the account and therefore on your new garmin watch.
Hey Stephen, enjoy the watch! Btw, Congrats! You were the first one to spot Tinker, our hidden robot in this video!

Tq for this video. I have question,why I cannot install face watch for my garmin venu sq music? I have downloaded the connect apps but seem to be loading 😂😂😂
Is it possible to choose a photo on one's phone as a background for a new watch face? The Amazfit does this. Thank you; this is a very good and helpful review. Thanks for including time stamps as well!
@@misssL261 Hi Lorena, I did find the answer, and it works just fine on my Venu 2. Go to the upload called "Custom Photo Watch Faces | Garmin Forerunner," and it will work easily. The upload is by "Mike for the Camera." As he mentions, be patient after you tap the "Install" button. It takes *at least* 2 minutes, maybe more. Good luck!
How do you set the damn time? It also get's annoying when you sometimes just want to see the time but the watch is in another mode. Lots of times now I feel like I just want to rip the bloody thing off because I can't see the bloody time... Grrr! Also when the battery goes flat, so does the time and you have to reset it again. Double GRRR!
Hi thanks for watching, you can change the watch faces in app by going to the main dashboard screen and tapping the device or watch icon at the top of the screen. From there tap on "appearance"

You could add some info regarding "screen comes on" when moving your wrist? I seem to have twiddled something and it doesn't do that anymore. Also phone seems to disconnect and reconnect unexpectedly.
DOES IT ONLY VIBRATE TO NOTIFY TOU OF CALLS OR TXT? MINE DOES NOT SEEM TO MAKE ANY SOUND AT ALL. I ALSO CAN NOT TALK OR HEAR THROUGH IT
Whats brand bluetooth earphone do u recommend that works with venu sq music?
How do you add the steps icon to show on the watch face so I don't have to look for it in My Day?
Have any of you found a way to keep the screen on for longer, mine goes off after maybe 2 seconds, so if I pause to look at anything it goes off and you can't get it to come on again on the same screen.

I have watched 2 of your videos with this watch in it and you have not stated what the health stats are on either. Pointless video.
Sorry, but that watch is really bad looking, like out of the 80's, but the bad side of the 80's watch design. Wont wear it
