Decent weather widget from garmin

Former Member over 4 years ago

Why there is no simple weather + temperature widget from Garmin for the fenix? I'm embarrassed all the time my wife asks me for the current temp and then shows off her apple watch lovely weather data.

All I have found at the Garmin Connect store are third party widgets that fail to give me a simple data point like temperature.

Well, I did not test any Connect IQ weather widgets (the built-in one works all right for me), but when I look up the term "weather" in the IQ Store, I see many of them do show the temperature already on the basic photo in the search results (without even looking up the details of the app/widget). Are you telling that they do not show any temperature once you install them?

Actually you are right. I decided to reset my Fenix 5 to factory settings and once I did that I saw the weather built-in widget. I wonder why Garmin doesn't list all built-in widgets in the Connect IQ store.

Because they are not any Connect IQ apps/widgets.
