Garmin Varia™ Description
When paired with a compatible Garmin Varia device¹, the Varia app has the tools you need to ride with confidence. Using the Varia app, you can:

- Be alerted right on your phone when approaching vehicles are within 140 meters behind your bicycle.
- View color-coded alerts based on surrounding traffic: Green means you’re all clear, yellow means a vehicle is approaching, and red means a vehicle is coming at you quickly and you should take caution.
- Receive tone and vibration alerts for approaching vehicles even when you’re not looking at your phone.

With a compatible Garmin Varia Rearview Radar Camera, you can also:

- Set the camera in the best position for capturing videos and photos.
- Record videos or take photos while riding with a simple button press on your phone.
- Automatically record videos of incidents and save the video footage with the Incident Recording feature.
- Overlay speed, time, date and GPS details on photos and videos.
- Save, delete or download videos and photos to your phone.

Easy to Use
Pairing your Garmin Varia device with the app is quick and easy. Once you set it up, the Varia app will automatically recognize your device.

Even if you already have a Varia device paired with a compatible Garmin device or head unit, the Varia app provides additional awareness and peace of mind while riding.

¹ Compatible devices are the Varia RVR315 Rearview Radar, Varia RTL515 Radar Tail Light and Varia RCT715 Rearview Radar Camera.

Comments about Garmin Varia™ Android Version
I almost didn't buy the Varia radar because of the negative reviews of this app. They must have fixed all the issues by now. In about 500km the app has never disconnected even once during normal usage. And when it does (e.g. when you disconnect the radar), it gives a clear, immediate message that it lost connection. The app has not missed a single vehicle and is 100% reliable. The sounds are well thought-out and battery usage is also very low because they kept the design as black as possible. 👍
It's great that there's an app that connects to the radars but there are two important ways that it falls short. 1) It won't connect to the RTL515 if the light is turned off (even if the unit is on). This is very annoying because there are lots of times I don't want the light on, but I do want the radar. I returned the RTL515 and got the RVR315 instead. 2) The sound is tied to the media volume. I often listen to music when I bike but I just use one earbud and keep the volume low so that I can be aware of what's going on around me. This means the apps alerts are also very low volume and I often miss them. They should include an option to link the sound to either media volume, or alert volume. I would choose alerts so that it's just as loud as when I get a text.
This app needs a background sync option like Gamin's Explore and Connect apps to force it to stay awake when navigating to other apps on your phone. Without it, after a short while Android kills it as a background app when doing other things with other apps. I then have to reopen the app and wait for Bluetooth to connect again. Hearing the warning sounds while doing something else on your phone is still very useful.
