I've Lost My Garmin Device

Garmin does not have a way to remotely track your device, disable updates, or access to delete contents on the device. If you have lost your watch, there are a couple of things that you can try to locate your device.

If your inquiry is for an inReach handheld device, see Related.

Check Garmin Connect

Devices that have been paired to a smartphone through the Garmin Connect app will display information on when it last synced. If it has synced with your account recently, that means it was within Bluetooth range of your smartphone.

  1. Go to Garmin Connect from a personal computer. 

  2. Log into your Garmin Connect account.

  3. Select Daily Summary (top left).

The Daily Summary section will display the date and time the device last synced with Garmin Connect:

Use the Garmin Connect App to Help Find Your Device

If you have previously connected your device to your smartphone or tablet through the Garmin Connect app and the Garmin device is within Bluetooth range of your mobile device, the Find My Device (also known as Find My Watch) feature may be able to locate it.
