Looking for a developer to code a watch face

Former Member over 6 years ago

Hello,

First and foremost, I am NOT a developer. I've been wearing the Fenix 5 for a number of years and recently upgraded to the Fenix 6. Unfortunately, my favorite watch face is not compatible with the Fenix 6. I have designed a very simple mock up (in PowerPoint) of what I am looking for. If anyone is interested in helping me out (of course, will compensate you for your time), please get in touch with me at [email protected]

Thanks!

Here's a quick version (no lightning icon as I'm not sure what you wanted that to show):

Depending on what the important parts of your design are to you, you could try checking M2 and M2 Designer (sorry blatant plug …) https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/206c2756-5eee-47f2-a654-f32375dcbe02

You could get the layout you want, but the fonts will be different, and there is no "Bluetooth" or "lightning" icons, but there are others to choose from.

In fact while I'm sitting here I'll try a quick mock up ...

The best place to post is in the CIQ App ideas sub forum. Have you tried contacting the developer to see if they can just add the f6?

Thanks - I'll check out the CIQ App ideas sub forum you mentioned. I sent a note to the developer earlier this week but haven't heard back.

Give it some time, as this is just a hobby for many (I sometimes go a few days without checking emails about apps myself). Which watch face?

Appreciate it. Will do. It's the Clean 1hz Heart Rate, developed by Adam Krzesinski (https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/28d4ca7e-7ab3-4ca0-aa8f-3fe72cb386a7).

The alignments may not be right as only tested in quickly, but it could be a start.

And you can change the fonts to be the system ones too if you wanted.
