Playing Audio Prompts During an Activity

You can enable your Forerunner® music watch to play motivational status announcements during a run or other activity. Audio prompts play on your connected Bluetooth® headphones, if available. Otherwise, audio prompts play on your phone paired through the Garmin Connect™ app. During an audio prompt, the watch or phone lowers the volume of the primary audio to play the announcement.
