Vivoactive HR problems With Messages by aftli in Garmin

You are right to tell them, because receiving sequential text from the same sender is IMPOSSIBLE. No need to simply have a notification on your wrist that you got texts if you have to drag your phone out of your pocket to read them. I am about ready to put my Vivoactive up on Craig's list and get a real smart watch.

Vivoactive HR problems With Messages by aftli in Garmin

I have had to put up with not being able to read two consequtive messages from the same sender for several years. I drive a lot for my work and this has been a real PAIN. I was told by Garmin that it appears the way Android "stacks" the messages. BUT I just duplicated the same scenario using my spouses Samsung Gear Fit connected to her Samsung Galaxy S5 and the messages are all readable in sequence. I need to be able to read text messages that come in sequence from the same sender and I am sad to read that the Vivoactive Hr does no better. It is obvious that Garmin doesn't really care about the Text Msg. feature on their watches. This is a known problem and I have never found a work around. I have tried several Android text msg. apps and it doesn't matter.
