Can I set reminders based on my breathing rate data on the Garmin Lily 2


The Garmin Lily 2 does not have a built-in feature specifically designed to set reminders based on breathing rate data. However, it does track your respiration rate and provides insights into your breathing patterns, especially in relation to stress levels.

Breathing Rate Tracking

- Respiration Rate Measurement: The Lily 2 measures your breathing rate in breaths per minute and provides a seven-day average. This data is collected while you are inactive, allowing the watch to detect any unusual breathing activity[2][3].
- Stress Monitoring: The device also tracks heart rate variability (HRV) to estimate stress levels, which can be influenced by your breathing patterns[1][4].

Setting Reminders

While you cannot set reminders directly tied to your breathing rate data, you can utilize the Relaxation Timer feature. This allows you to perform guided breathing exercises:

1. Access the Stress Level Widget: Swipe to view the stress level widget.
2. Start Relaxation Timer: Tap the touchscreen and select the option to start the relaxation timer, which guides you through breathing exercises[2][5].

Custom Alerts

The Lily 2 supports various alerts related to physical activities, such as heart rate zone alerts, time alerts, and distance alerts. However, these are more focused on exercise metrics rather than specific health metrics like breathing rates[1][4].

In summary, while you can't set reminders based specifically on your breathing rate data, the Garmin Lily 2 offers valuable tracking of respiration and stress levels, along with guided breathing exercises that can help manage stress effectively.
