Add weather, games, compatible music services, new workout metrics, and choose from thousands of watch faces. Garmin is more than happy to take your 200, 300, 500 dollars, but they’re sluggish in assisting you with getting it or this required app to work. content to personalize your Garmin device. This leads to my last gripe good luck getting support. More than 15 preloaded GPS and indoor sports apps.
#NEW GARMIN WATCH FACES VIVOACTIVE DOWNLOAD#
In my case I have an Edge Explore unit which should be compatible with the Bontrager light control app according to the compatible device listing on the app data page, but the IQ App Store disagrees, and insists I add a compatible device to my account to download the app. Personalize your watch with thousands of free watch faces, apps and widgets from the Connect IQ store. Secondly, the IQ App Store will not display apps it doesn’t believe are compatible with your device, even if they claim to be, and if you round about find the apps you want by using your browser it won’t let you download them. Even when I receive the error icon I can still send data back to my phone, so who knows, maybe it’s syncing maybe it’s not. Or freshen that display look depending on the occasion. Now whether it’s actually struggling to sync or just claiming to be struggling to sync I can’t say. Most Garmin watches ship with a small array of pre-loaded watch faces, enabling you to prioritise the data most important to you. Over and over you’ll get the little red circle with an exclamation point, and despite doing everything from hitting retry to reinstalling the app it’ll keep happening. The first problem is the constant trouble syncing. You’d think an app from a multi-billion dollar company would be at least marginally better than one built by Jerry and Cleetus in the shed behind their mom’s house, but you’d be wrong. First off, let’s be clear, this isn’t an app but rather a digital torture device.
