## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is anyone facing calls & sms Notifications getting delayed problem? If yes, so is there any way to solve it?**
A: On mine, (Garmin Instinct 2 Solar Tactical black) notifications, calls, etc., reach the Garmin before my other devices - all Android, all Samsung, and Phonak hearing aids.
I did need to do the initial Garmin set-up with my tablet and hearing aids off. I think it was a bluetooth/wi-fi priority issue. But once I got the Garmin set, I could do the other devices with no problems. I also keep the "Connect" app running in the background on my Galaxy phone.
Not sure if any of this helps, but it may give you an idea for a possible fix. Good luck - I really enjoy my Garmin, so I hope you can get yours working to your satisfaction.

**Q: what is the width of the band?**
A: The Instinct 2X Solar Tactical band is 26 MM in width.
