Garmin Forerunner 55 Watch

Bugs and Support

Hello,

I would appreciate advice/tips on connecting the Garmin Forerunner 55 HR to Zwift so that HR displays “live.”

Thank you.

The Forerunner 55 supports HR broadcast via either ANT+ or Bluetooth

I’m not seeing that it broadcasts over Bluetooth on that page?

That paragraph says it can pair to a Garmin ANT+ compatible device, and an iPhone is not compatible.

@M_Martineau
Shuji at Zwift HQ. Apple has never supported ANT+ natively on their devices. Your iPhone won’t “see” its ANT signal, and so neither will the Zwift app.

It’s listed on this page. More of a question for Garmin support though.
