Pairing Garmin to iPhone


Louzy

Recommended Posts

Hello

I have a new iPhone 8+. I can't get my Garmin 920XT to pair with the phone. The phone finds the Garmin but fails to pair... any ideas?

I had an iPhone X with a 920xt works fine, have u updated the software on the garmin 920 via express?

 

Once that’s done pair the watch and the phone via the setting Bluetooth, open the app and hit the more at the bottom and select garmin devices, click on the add device and follow the steps in the wizard, enjoy.

Not sure how old your software on the Garmin is but my Fenix 3 had to be updated, via PC connection, before it would sync with my IPhone the first time.

Are you trying to pair through the Garmin app or through iOS Settings? Through iOS settings won’t work; so switch on bluetooth on both iphone and garmin and open up garmin app on iphone.

 

On the garmin,

Select Settings > Bluetooth > Pair Mobile Device.

On your smartphone, open the Garmin Connect Mobile app.

 

If this is the first time you are pairing a device with the Garmin Connect Mobile app, follow the on-screen instructions.

 

If you already paired another device with the Garmin Connect Mobile app, from the settings menu, select Garmin Devices > Add Device, and follow the on-screen instructions.
