'Activities & apps' not showing on connect IQ app under 'Devices' for Fenix 8

8280247 1 day ago

I've installed a widget on the Garmin IQ app, but on my watch and the Garmin Connect app there isn't the 'Activities & Apps' choice to get it appearing on my watch.

I've gone to:

Garmin Connect > Devices > fenix 8 - 43mm, AMOLED

List of selectable options:

Garmin Pay
Glances
Controls
Notifications & Alerts
Sound & Vibe
Display & Brightness
Connectivity
Focus Modes
Activities
Health & Wellness
Map & Navigation
Safety & Tracking
Music
User Profile
Power Manager
System

The Activites, Apps & More option is available if I select my Edge 1030 on the connect app.

The IQ app suggests the widget is installed, but there isn't a widget option on my watch or through the app.

Any help appreciated!

Widgets and Glances are the same.

Ok thank you. The widget I have installed (as per the Garmin IQ app) isn’t appearing in that list. Any ideas?

No idea.

Check on the watch: Customizing the Glances List

I do not own the F8, but I do not think that 3rd party IQ widgets are supposed to be configurable through Garmin Connect. Either use the Connect IQ app, or Garmin Express for configuring IQ apps, or as Andy suggested, do it directly on the watch.
