Yes, Spotify can be installed on the Garmin vivoactive 5 so that you can go jogging without your mobile. - You must have a Spotify Premium subscription as only Premium users can use the offline function. - Connect your watch to a Wi-Fi network to download the Spotify app and synchronise playlists. - Open the Garmin Connect mobile app, go to the music providers, select Spotify and install the app on your watch. - Log in with your Spotify account and download your playlists or music to play them offline. After following these steps, you can play music from Spotify directly on your Garmin vivoactive 5 without the need for a mobile.

The watch allows you to receive and reject incoming calls, but you cannot make calls directly from the watch. You must use your connected phone to speak to the caller. The watch is not directly suitable for playing Spotify, as it does not offer integrated music playback via streaming services such as Spotify. However, you can store and play music on the watch if you connect it to a compatible device via Bluetooth. The watch has Wi-Fi, which can be useful for downloading apps or synchronising data, but there is no specific information on whether Spotify can be streamed directly via Wi-Fi.

Yes, this smartwatch has GPS. It supports GPS, GLONASS and Galileo for positioning.

The 'WLAN only' statement means that this version of the watch is equipped with a Wi-Fi connection, but it doesn't specify whether it excludes other types of connectivity such as Bluetooth. However, given that most smartwatches include Bluetooth connectivity to connect to mobile devices, it is likely that this watch also has this functionality. The 'WLAN only' statement could be used to emphasise the watch's ability to connect directly to a Wi-Fi network without going through a smartphone, which is useful for software updates or downloading music.

Yes, you can also use this watch as a normal smartwatch. It offers functions such as a calendar, alarm clock and weather display. In addition, there are special modes for activities such as swimming, but no specific mode for climbing.

Yes, the Garmin vivoactive 5 watch can display messages and calls from an iPhone. Here's how it works: - The watch needs to be paired with your iPhone via the Garmin Connect app. - You need to enable the necessary permissions in your iPhone settings, including the "Share system notifications" option in the Bluetooth section. - Once the permissions are enabled, you can configure the notification settings in the Garmin Connect app to receive notifications of messages, calls and other applications directly to your watch. This means you'll be able to see the person's name and the text of messages, as well as calls, directly on your Garmin vivoactive 5.

The watch does not have a phone function that allows you to make calls directly via the watch. It lacks a speaker and microphone, so you have to use your connected smartphone to make calls. However, you can accept or reject calls on the watch and even send predefined text messages, but the call itself must be made via the smartphone.

The altitude is still available in the activity statistics based on the GPS data. The minimum and maximum altitude are shown as well as the total ascent and descent in metres. My experiences compared to my predecessor are an expansion of the activity and health measurements and easier handling.

No way ...Too bad...
