Garmin Device Notifications
Jan 17, 2026
New option to configure Garmin device notifications
We’re excited to announce a new feature in Fitrockr that gives you more control over your study and participant experience: Garmin device notifications can now be configured directly in Fitrockr.
This update makes it easier than ever to manage how and when participants receive notifications on their Garmin devices—without additional manual steps or device-side configuration.
What’s new?
Fitrockr administrators can now:
– Enable or disable Garmin device notifications directly from the Fitrockr platform
– Control notification behavior centrally for studies, projects, or participants
– Reduce participant setup effort by managing settings at the platform level
This ensures a more consistent and streamlined experience across all connected Garmin devices.
Why This Matters
Garmin notifications are often used to support:
– Study reminders
– Participant engagement
– Data quality and compliance
Until now, managing these notifications required extra coordination or participant-side configuration. With this update, Fitrockr simplifies the process by bringing notification control into the same platform where data collection and monitoring already happen.
Key benefits
▶︎ Less friction for participants
▶︎ More control for researchers and project managers
▶︎ Improved consistency across devices
▶︎ Better overall study experience
How it works
If you are already using Garmin devices with Fitrockr, the new notification configuration options are available now in the project settings. Simply review your project settings and adjust notifications as needed.
Available now
The new feature is live and available to all Fitrockr subscriptions.
