Featuring a bright, colourful display, up to 11 days of battery life, and purpose-built health and fitness features, the vívoactive 6 smartwatch gives you the tools and insights to help you know your body better.
See your energy levels throughout the day, so you’ll know when your body is charged up and ready for activity or drained and needing to recharge with restful sleep. And get even more details and personal insights on how sleep, naps, daily activities and high stress specifically impact your energy1.
Get a sleep score and personalised coaching for how much sleep you need and how you can improve. Even keep track of different sleep stages and naps — and see several key metrics over your sleep period, such as HRV status to better understand your health1.
Track the ways you move with more than 80 preloaded GPS and indoor sports apps — including walking, running, cycling, pool swimming, activities for wheelchair users and more.
From daily suggested walking workouts to step-by-step workouts for strength, HIIT, yoga, Pilates, mobility and more, it’s never been easier to move. Simply find the workouts in the Garmin Connect app, and download them onto your smartwatch.
Continuously monitor your health with wrist-based heart rate1, HRV status, Pulse Ox2 and women’s health tracking — including menstrual cycle and pregnancy, meditation and more — to learn more about your body.
Receive emails, texts and alerts on your fitness watch when paired with your iPhone or Android smartphone. With an Android phone, respond to texts with the on-watch keyboard, and view photos sent to you directly from your watch’s screen.
