Versa 2 buzzes in exercise mode

[Sharkjenni]

I just got a versa 2 and so far I love it. However, when I put it in exercise mode it buzzes every 60 seconds or so (same buzz as a notification). My friends that have the versa 2 said this doesn’t happen to them. And my previous versa didn’t do this. Is there something wrong? Or can I change this in settings somewhere?

Those are probably "Zone Notifications", telling you when you enter or switch heart rate zones.  I forget exactly but I think different # of buzzes for different zones.

To turn these off, in the Exercise App, after you have selected your exercise type but before starting, tap the gear icon near top right.  That will show options specific to this exercise type.  One of those options is 'Zone Notifications'.  Once you have turned it off, it should stay off in the future.  But I think it only applies to that workout type so might have to set it separately , say for walk and run.  Look at some other options in that gear icon menu if you haven't yet, particularly 'Customize Stats' to select which stats to show on the screen during the workout.
