Playing Audio Prompts on Your Smartphone During Your
Activity
Before you can set up audio prompts, you must have a
smartphone with the Garmin Connect app paired to your
Forerunner device.
You can set the Garmin Connect app to play motivational status
announcements on your smartphone during a run or other
activity. Audio prompts include the lap number and lap time,
pace or speed, and heart rate data. During an audio prompt, the
Garmin Connect app mutes the primary audio of the smartphone
to play the announcement. You can customize the volume levels
on the Garmin Connect app.
NOTE: If you have a Forerunner 245 Music device, you can
enable audio prompts on the device through your connected
headphones, without using a connected smartphone (Playing
Audio Prompts During Your Activity, page 4).
