So if there are any Garmin watch wearers out there (like me) then you need to be aware Garmin has been hacked and is completed down...
Hopefully they haven’t stolen banking details...

That might tie in with why Mrs GB's had a wobbler earlier this week.

Mine started playing up yesterday, was hoping it was back today but it seems it’s a lot more serious than simply a server down...

Don't have any garmin device but seen lots of reports saying that the whole Garmin Connect service is down. Not just for smart watches but also other fitness devices like cycle computers.
For cycle computers some folks have been able to upload their activities to Strava via usb cable to their PC.

That explains why I can't upload my ride to Strava via Garmin Connect.
I've just gone on to Strava & uploaded it directly from my Garmin 520. That worked fine.

Noticed this yesterday after finishing a run. Didn't upload to the app, it just mentioned down for maintenance. Thought app was getting an update and i was just getting close to finishing a challenge as well.
I also noticed something amiss yesterday. I assume my Vivoactive will just store my activities and data for some reasonable length of time until they get it back up again?
That's annoying. Fortunately most Garmin devices can be hooked up to a PC so you can get your track off a watch or bike computer via a USB cable, for any Strava users who might otherwise be relying on a transfer from Garmin Connect.
Same here but after today’s lunchtime run. Tried again about 8pm before I read this thread.Originally Posted by Mr Saracen

So just be patient and wait for them to fix it. No big deal

I have my Garmin linked to my private health provider who has various bonuses linked to activities. They emailed today and are taking appropriate actions so no one loses out.
If I was still concerned, which I am not, I have Fitbit and Polar as backups.
