Pulse Ox at Your WristThe Pulse Ox sensor on vívosmart 4 estimates your body’s blood oxygen saturation level. Your Pulse Ox measurements are dependent upon a number of factors, including your overall health and fitness. Checking your Pulse Ox can help gauge how your body is absorbing oxygen. Turn on the feature to gauge your SpO2 overnight, or use it to take a spot measurement anytime to learn more about your body. |
Advanced Sleep MonitoringSleep is important to your overall health, well-being and physical performance. To give you an idea of how you’re sleeping, vívosmart 4 tracks your light, deep and REM stages of sleep, along with movement throughout the night. For added insight, turn on the Pulse Ox feature to view your blood oxygen levels during your sleep. When you wake up, you can easily review and compare your sleep stats in the Garmin Connect Mobile app. |
Optimize Your Body’s EnergyBody Battery energy monitoring on vívosmart 4 uses a combination of stress, heart rate variability (HRV), sleep and activity data to gauge your body’s energy reserves at any moment, so you can plan your day to optimize times for activity and rest. A higher number indicates you’re ready to be active, while a lower number suggests you might need to relax and rest a bit before tackling a workout. Body Battery can also help you make sense of patterns throughout your weeks, so you can understand how the past few days have influenced how you’re feeling today. |

All-day Stress TrackingYou most likely experience stress at some point in your day, but how much? Your vívosmart 4 lets you know when you are having a calm, balanced or stressful day and everything in between. Tracking your HRV (the time interval between each heartbeat), vívosmart 4 calculates and displays your stress level. There’s also an optional 'Relax Reminder' feature that you can turn on in the Garmin Connect app. If your stress level gets elevated during your day, it will provide a vibration alert on your wrist and display a message (“Take a moment to breathe?”) to let you know it’s time to relax. Use the relaxation breathing timer, which walks you through the Fourfold breathing technique, proven to calm your mind and body. |
Daily Fitness and Wellness MonitoringUsing the Elevate heart rate data collected from your wrist, vívosmart 4 can — with a VO2 max estimate — give you an idea of your current fitness level. In general, as your aerobic fitness increases, your VO2 max does the same. Based on your VO2 max, vívosmart 4 is also able to estimate your fitness age — a stat that you may be able to decrease over time with hard work and exercise. For added insight, vívosmart 4 will notify you if your heart rate unexpectedly rises above a threshold you’ve set. If you’re inactive for more than 10 minutes and your heart rate stays above your set threshold, you’ll get an alert. |
Stay ConnectedWith a vívosmart 4 tracker on your wrist, you don’t have to choose between staying connected and staying more active. Check the weather, control your music, receive smart notifications, find your phone, even reply with preset text responses (Android only), and access social media notifications on your tracker’s display — all while keeping your smartphone stowed away. |
Keep Track of Your Active Life
Your vívosmart 4 greets you each day with a personalized step goal. Then it tracks and displays your progress. In addition to steps, its activity tracking capabilities include floors climbed, calories burned, intensity minutes and more. You’ll also see a move bar and get vibration alerts to remind you when it’s time to get up and move.
Track Your Workouts
You can use the preloaded activity timers to keep track of your exercise times and more. When using the strength training activity, it estimates your exercises, reps and sets along with your work and rest times so you can leave the notebook at home. And if you forget to start a timer, the Move IQ feature on vívosmart 4 will automatically detect exercises such as walking, swimming, cycling and elliptical training — and it even starts timing select activities. When finished, your activities are pushed to Garmin Connect, our online community, where you can review, edit and share the activities with your connections and friends.

Another Great Wearable from Garmin--this one needs to learn about you, too.
I upgraded from the Vivosmart 3 and I am excited about most of the upgrades made in the 4. I love that we now have a button to get into the second level menu or go back to the home screen. It has a nice sleek look. It is a little narrower than the Garmin three. At first, I disliked reading the scrolling text but after a week I adjusted and it no longer bothers me. So I think the new narrow design is a plus.I had hoped I could use the Garmin 3 charging cable but the charging connection now sports an extra prong making it incompatible with the Garmin 3 charging cable. But it holds a charge much better than the 3 ever did. I only have to charge it once a week now instead of the begging and end of the week. And I use the nighttime SPo2 feature.I love the pulse ox. I've seen a lot of reviewers complain about it. Unfortunately, all of the reviews I watched or read about only used the Garmin for two or three days and at most, a few, used it for a week. This is not enough time. First, I tested the pulse ox feature against a finger pulse ox monitor. The Garmin is typically read 2% below the finger pulse ox. On a separate occasion when I was cold, it read 4% below the finger pulse ox. It shouldn't be a surprise that a wrist-based pulse Ox doesn't match the doctor's office device. However, it's within an acceptable range for me to use it. Especially, when I see I dropped down to 73 a couple of times during the night. One of the things to note is that you do need to wear this snug to the wrist for the HR and the Pulse Ox to work ideally. Many of the reviewers when they showed it, they were not wearing it snug. I can still fit my index finger between my band and wrist so it isn't tight.Another sore point in most reviews is the overnight SPo2 monitoring. This frustrated me for the first week as it has many reviewers. But after that, it worked consistently. I learned that it only runs for about the middle 4 hours of your sleep time. Now, if you are a restless sleeper and move around a lot or get up, it will stop reading. In order for it to take your Pulse Ox your wrist needs to be straight. If you bend it, it will stop reading. If you make a fast move, it will stop, if you get up, it will stop. But, once you settle again, the Vivosmart will start back up again. If your band is loose enough to slide around, you will not get a consistent pulse ox at night Especially if you move around.I also tested the Heart rate feature at the doctor's office and it was always dead on. Not once has it strayed from the doctor's reading. I tested both the pulse ox and the HR at five different doctor's offices. So I am fairly confident in the Garmin Pulse Ox and Heart Rate readings. But again, it needs to be snug to your wrist in order to achieve an accurate reading. When it is loose, it can be off.I did have to work a little to get my custom step size just right before it would take an accurate read of the distance I traveled and the number of steps I've taken during the day. For those who want to put it on and not worry about, you may or may not have an accurate measure of how far you've walked/run or the number of steps you've taken. I do feel my Vivosmart 3 was a little better there. Not sure if it's specific to my band or why it is. But I did get it to work perfectly through the custom step and matching it to a handheld GPS to confirm distance.The Body Battery is an interesting and unique feature. This one really needed time to learn me. It took a couple of weeks for this one to mesh with my life and activities. Once it did, I've found that it has been useful to make decisions on working out or not. At one point I couldn't figure out why my reading was 44 because I felt great. Well, the next day I was sick. If I had looked at the hrv and pulse ox during the day (you have to manually ask it to take the pulse ox), I would have realized I was getting sick and could have adapted my activities for the day. I certainly don't use the body battery a lot but I do find it useful.For those who like to auto-count workouts, I've enjoyed that feature quite a bit. I don't run, but I love to walk and I swim, which is why I decided on the Garmin Vivosmart 3, it was waterproof. It misses a stroke or a rep here or there but it hasn't been very often. And if you do find it missed something, you can certainly add it in the App.Yes, it really is waterproof. I use it in the pool all the time and don't worry about it in the shower. Garmin says the Vivosmart is waterproof up to 50 meters. And yes, it is! I don't normally scuba dive with it on. During the last trip, I forgot to take it off before climning into my gear. My husband was about to head below deck so I handed it to tuck it away in our bags. He dropped in his shorts pocket and well, yes, he forgot. So, this wonderful little band survived a thirty minute, 40-meter dive. It's not a dive computer and I probably won't wear it diving again because I can only handle so many wrist-based devices but I certainly won't be worried if I forget it again.So, whether you want it for the gym, running/walking, swimming, snorkeling, take it scuba diving, tracking sleep, this little wearable is an excellent choice.
