Follow the steps below to access the Garmin Vivoactive 3 Run Settings:
- Short-press the right-hand button on Garmin Vivoactive 3.
- Select the activity you would like change (in this tutorial, I chose Run).
- Within the activity of your choosing, scroll down and select Settings.
The Garmin Vivoactive 3 activity tracking features include:
- Data Screens. Here you can change the data screens that are displayed on the watch face while the activity. There are many settings to play around within this setting. Don’t be afraid to take the time to discover what you enjoy the most!
- Alerts. This allows you to set up different alerts within your activity, such as when you’ve reached 10 minutes, or when you’ve reached a 5K. It can even alert you when you’ve reached a certain number of calories. All of it is customizable, so don’t be afraid to get creative with your health!
- Laps. This is automatically set to 1 mile. To turn this off, select the green bar. To edit, click within the laps and choose.
- Auto Pause. This will auto-pause the activity when you stop running. This is great so you can see how long you were truly running if you need to start and stop.
- Auto Scroll. This will allow the watch to scroll through the different data screens. You can select Off, Slow, Medium, Fast to determine the speed of the scroll.
- GPS. On, Off, or access different types of GPS.
- Background Color. Black or White are your options here.
- Accent Color. Choose the accent color to correspond to your background color, and voila!
- Auto Activity Start. This is a customizable way to allow the watch to track your activities without you having to tell it to do so each time.
