This means that the Garmin Vivofit will not automatically connect ( or bluetooth ) to your phone. You have to first have the Garmin app on your phone, activate the app, then hold down the button on your vivofit until the word "SYNC" appears. Only then will your Vivofit communitcate with your smart phone. The whole process is barely 30 seconds.

I have tested that function this morning. It will NOT automatically "Connect". However, it does remember that it is a device that you have previously "Paired". So you will need to go into the setting/bluetooth and manually "Connect". Or just click on the name and it connects.

Go to the settings icon. See if Bluetooth is listed. If so, it should work.

No it doesn't want to pair with my phone. If it does, my phone drops the connection automatically. If I try again, it won't pair at all.

I think it doesn't work since this phone does not have a Bluetooth function.

Just re-pair the bluetooth device by holding the button down until it flashes blue and red. Search for device on your phone. It should repair. Maybe restart your phone too.

My Bluetooth doesn't connect with my laptop. It connects only with my smartphone and sometimes it disconnects suddenly which is very frustrating.

Brian I had the same problem. It was my error. There is an On/off button on the side. Once you switch it on you then press the connect button. Make sure that the tablet bluetooth is on

Press and hold the center button hold it until you hear it say Bluetooth connected. I don't have mine at hand but I remember holding something down till it conected. Also check to make sure it's charged and your devices Bluetooth is turned on

Mine did the same thing for the first few times I tried. For some reason it just showed up to connect to. I may have turned my phone off for a few seconds & then turned it back on.

I'm sorry. We were unable to connect to Bluetooth on this stereo. Never used this feature.

you have to remove it from your bluetooth devices on I-phone. then pair it back up again.

Mine isn't doing that. Maybe it's still searching for bluetooth? Did you try holding the power button down to turn it on and restart it?

I have the same problem. There were no instruction on how to connect to phone; amazon is aware of this and I haven't received any response, it's been several months since I made them aware of this problem.

Try turning off all your other Blutooth devices associated with it. For instance if your phone Blutooth is on and your trying to connect to Oontz your computer or iPad etc, it will not connect till you turn off the Blutooth function on the other devices.

That happened to me when I first got it. I just deleted the pairing from my device and then repeated the pairing process. It worked and I haven't had any problems since. Hope this helps.
