He will be able to leave his phone at home while running and allow the watch to record everything natively. It gathers far more info than a phone app (like heart rate, cadence, etc.) and may actually be more accurate on the GPS side.
He will need to link his Garmin account to his Strava account once. After he does that, when he gets home, the watch syncs with the Garmin app on his phone, and Garmin automatically creates corresponding Strava activities. I did this for years, and it does not require an LTE device as suggested by someone above. Any Garmin device that records activities (so all smartwatches) are compatible.
The main daily difference is Vivoactive devices have touch screens and Forerunner devices don't. Based on the comparison tool [garmin.com] at Garmin, the 255 also has significantly better battery life, sleep score/insights, incident detection, more default activities, basic/breadcrumb navigation, and compatibility with various accessories. Vivoactive has more golf and breathwork features.
I have 0 idea what that apps actually for but I did it a week ago at the suggestion of a reddit post (doesn't work for 60? Days after a product launch so FR165 is off the table for anyone else reading)
