A:AnswerThe Venu has a rechargeable battery so it shouldn't need to be replaced for several years. As long as the phone meets Garmin's bluetooth requirements it should pair. Please go to support.garmin.com where you'll find FAQ's on the Bluetooth requirements as well as other helpful FAQ's and video's.

A:AnswerThis type of exercise would be tracked under the "Cardio" category. Similar to other wearables, this will track steps and count basal and active calories burned.
A:AnswerPlease go to support.garmin.com and reach out to a product support specialist to determine which features you are wanting/needing to use and information on how setting up the device properly may require you have it sync/paired with a phone or computer to be sure it is set up properly for the features you're wanting.

A:AnswerIt was compatible with my Android, but 20 days later, when VENU went through an update, the respective upgrade was only available on Apple products. So double check with the company before you purchase the product.
