The Venu Smartwatch from Garmin provides you with a rich and vibrant, customizable 1.2" AMOLED display and built-in technology for all-day fitness and health tracking. The Venu Pulse Ox sensor and wrist-based heart rate monitor can help gauge how hard you work out, if you have an elevated heart rate at rest, and how well your body absorbs oxygen during the day and while you sleep.
The Venu has more than 20 pre-loaded GPS and indoor sports apps, helping you track your progress in activities such as walking, running, cycling, pool swimming, golf, and more. With the Garmin Connect app, you can even create your own custom workouts. If you need exercise help, the Venu has animated workout demonstrations that display right on the watch face. Learn cardio, strength, yoga, and Pilates workouts, or download even more via Garmin Connect.
With the Venu smartwatch, you get these and a host of other tracking and monitoring abilities, such as stress tracking, hydration tracking, menstrual cycle tracking, and more. When working out, the Venu can store up to 500 songs to keep you motivated without the need of a smartphone. When not exercising, enjoy practical functionality with smart notifications and the ability to use Garmin Pay for contactless payments at supported stores. The stylish Venu, with durable silicone band and water resistance up to 164', is an ideal daily companion to help you reach your health and fitness goals.
Smart Notifications
Receive emails, texts, and alerts on the hidden touchscreen when paired with your Bluetooth-compatible smartphone. If paired to an Android smartphone, you can even reply to texts.
Music
Download songs directly to the Venu, including playlists from your Spotify, Deezer, or Amazon Music accounts. With (optional) Bluetooth headphones, you can enjoy wireless playback without the need of a smartphone.
Heart Rate
The Venu tracks your heart rate while at rest and during workouts. At rest, constant samples of your heart rate are recorded in order to alert you if your heart rate stays elevated for a certain period of time. When working out, the heart rate monitor helps you gauge how much effort you gave to each exercise.
Sleep Tracking
After a night's sleep, the Venu provides you with a detailed breakdown of your light, deep, and REM sleep stages, as well as your Pulse Ox readings and respiration data.
Body Battery
The watch can track your energy levels throughout the day, so you'll know the best times for activity and rest.
Hydration Tracking
Staying hydrated is essential, and the Venu will remind you to drink some water based on your manually-entered water intake logs. You can even see how consistently hydrated you are from day to day.
Menstrual Cycle Tracking
The Venu lets you track your month-to-month menstrual cycle and log physical and emotional symptoms. You can also learn about training and nutrition during each phase of your cycle. Your cycle tracking info is available right on the watch face, where you'll be able to see period reminders, cycle details, and your logged symptoms for the day.
Respiration Tracking
The Venu can track how well you're breathing throughout the day, including while you sleep, during breathwork, and while performing yoga activities.
Stress Tracking
The Venu lets you know if you're having a calm, balanced, or stressful day. If your day becomes too stressful, the smartwatch will provide relax reminders and prompt you to perform a short breathing activity.
Safety & Tracking
When paired with your smartphones, the Venu can send your location to your contacts either manually, or when outside, automatically via built-in incident detection.
