Garmin vivoactive 6 GPS Smartwatch

Stay connected and in touch with your health with the Garmin vivoactive 6 GPS smartwatch. This Garmin watch can connect to your iPhone or Android phone to get texts, emails and alerts to your watch for an easier way to keep in touch. You can even respond to texts from your Android or view photos sent to you from the watch's screen. The addition of Garmin Pay makes it easy to check out at retailers with just your watch, no need to take out your wallet. If you have a Spotify or other music streaming subscription, you can also download songs and playlists to your watch so you can listen without needing your phone—perfect for when you need to unplug.

For Your Health and Wellness

The Garmin vivoactive 6 smartwatch makes a great companion whether you hit the gym regularly or want to live a healthier lifestyle. The watch monitors your heart rate and blood oxygen levels, and offers menstrual cycle and pregnancy tracking. You can access workouts from walking to strength training with Garmin's app, which lets you download the workouts to your smartwatch; the addition of preloaded indoor sports apps helps you track your movement whether you're cycling or swimming; there's even tracking for wheelchair users. Plus, the Garmin Connect™ app lets you see your health and fitness stats, from your sleep score to your step count, in one convenient place.

Help Get Your Best Sleep

Another crucial component of wellness is sleep, and the Garmin vivoactive 6 helps you improve that in that arena, too. The sleep coach gives you a sleep score and lets you know how much sleep you need. In the mornings, you'll receive an overview of your sleep and other vital stats, and these reports can be customized to best align with your health goals. You can even track your naps so you can determine how long you need to rest for and how they're helping your body.
