“No matter your fitness goals, vívoactive 6 is designed to help you understand your body better than ever before. From your morning routine to your mid-day workout session to your nighttime wind down and everything in between, this smartwatch will be with you every step of the way,” said Susan Lyman, Garmin Vice President of Consumer Sales and Marketing
Start the day off right
A brand new feature on the smartwatch is Garmin’s new “smart wake alarm” feature that looks at lighter sleep stages during a pre-selected window of time to gently wake users with a light vibration. Once awake, the morning report provides an overview of last night’s sleep, recovery insights, Body Battery, daily calendar, and more. It also includes heart rate variability (HRV) status, an early indicator of overall wellness and how prepared the body is for the day ahead. And now, users can customize the report even more with different themes, data, and inspirational messages.
Never miss a beat
Packed with key health and wellness features, vívoactive 6 can help keep users going strong all day.
