Safety and Tracking Features

CAUTION

Incident detection and assistance are supplemental features and should not be relied on as a primary method to obtain emergency assistance. The Garmin Connect™ app does not contact emergency services on your behalf.

The fēnix® 5/5S/5X Plus device has safety and tracking features that must be set up with the Garmin Connect app.
NOTICE

To use these features, you must be connected to the Garmin Connect app using Bluetooth® technology. You can enter emergency contacts in your Garmin Connect account.

Assistance

Incident detection

LiveTrack

GroupTrack

Allows you to keep track of your connections using LiveTrack directly on screen and in real time.
