Garmin Shortcuts: The Hidden Button Tricks I Use Daily
The article highlights Garmin shortcuts—formerly known as hot keys—as a hidden feature that lets you customize button presses to quickly access your most-used tools. By configuring shortcuts in the Settings (often under System), you can assign actions like launching the music player, starting timers, saving a location, or opening alarms. On five-button Garmins you can set up to seven shortcuts, enabling a clutter-free watch face while providing rapid access to frequent functions, a daily time-saver the author personally relies on.
