About the Step Goal

Your device has a default goal of 5,000 steps per day. As you begin your activity, the device records your progress toward the daily goal.
You can turn on the auto goal feature or set a personalized step goal using your Garmin Connect account. When you turn on the auto goal feature, the device creates a daily step goal automatically, based on your previous activity levels.

History

Your device keeps track of your daily steps, distance traveled, calories burned, and intensity. This history can be sent to the Garmin Connect Mobile app, the Garmin Connect site, or your wellness partner site.
Your device stores your activity data for up to 30 days. When the data storage is full, the device deletes the oldest files to make room for new data.

Sending Data to Your Garmin Connect Account and Your Wellness Partner Site

You can view and analyze data from your vívokí device on the Garmin Connect Mobile app, the Garmin Connect site, or your wellness partner site. You can use the vívohubTM receiver or the Garmin Connect Mobile app to send your data.

• Send data automatically by passing within range of a vívohub receiver.
  NOTE: For information about the vívohub receiver, contact your wellness program administrator.

• Send data by synchronizing the vívokí device with the Garmin Connect Mobile app (Using Garmin Connect Mobile, page 1).

If you received and registered your device with a wellness program, your data will be sent automatically to your wellness partner site.
