Garmin Connect icons on 'My Day'

Former Member over 9 years ago

Hello all

I've just switched from Fitbit to Garmin and bought a VivoSmart HR which I'm loving.
However, I'm a bit frustrated with the Android dashboard and My Day.

On the box the VivoSmart came in it shows My Day with various icons along the bottom, like the calendar.
It is possible to move your favourites to that position?

I am particularly interested in my heart rate, and would like this on the My Day dashboard, rather than having to go into the Health menu to find it each time.
Can it be customised?

(I'd also like to see the heart rate zones as well as Beats Per Minute - but it looks like you can only have 1 or the other, not both...)

Many thanks

I just use the apps dashboards as a quick reference and depend more on the the Modern dashboard on the web which allows a lot more flexibility. You can create multiple dashboards and move just about any widget or report anywhere on it.

However, in my case, I tend to spend a lot of time in front of my computer anyway.

To answer the OP's question, beyond choosing what snapshots are available by clicking on the 4 squares in the upper right, I don't believe there is anyway to customize the app.

Thanks. I saw the web version was much more flexible and I suppose I could use that from my phone and tablet, but it's not quite a practical :)

Thanks Dan.
The thing is, on the box my unit came in, it definitely shows a line of icons along the bottom of the MyDay page which means it should be possible... very frustrating!

Do you not have the icons at all? I have them, but don't believe they are customizable. If you don't have them, you might try deleting the app and then reloading it.
