You can set the Garmin Connect app to play motivational status
announcements on your smartphone during a run or other
activity. Audio prompts include the lap number and lap time,
pace or speed, and heart rate data. During an audio prompt, the
Garmin Connect app mutes the primary audio of the smartphone

on the Garmin Connect app.
NOTE: If you have a Forerunner device, you can enable audio
prompts on the device through your connected headphones,
without using a connected smartphone (Playing Audio Prompts
