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).
NOTE: The Lap Alert audio prompt is enabled by default.
