Former Member over 9 years ago

Hi,

I have created a watch face and i want to display a notification when my fenix3 connected to phone.

I used phoneConnected method however it seems not working. Am i using correct method? Or Anyone can help me here.

Thank You.

Your code should look something like:

var stats = Sys.getDeviceSettings();

if (stats.phoneConnected) {

  //show icon

}

If it does, can you post your code, so we can see what the problem might be?

If the problem is in the simulator, make sure the low power mode is deactivated / unselected
Then toggle bluetooth option and check if that makes a difference.

If the problem is on an actual device, make sure the Garmin Connect app is running and open, and that bluetooth is enabled in phone settings.
Just bluetooth enabled is not sufficient, Garmin Connect app HAS to be open and running.

Thank You TeunMo. I have the same code and i came to know that the icon will appear only when i connect phone which having Connect app in it.
Its working now.
