EPIX 2 and maybe F7

US site is reporting 416x416, which is the same as the Venu2+.  Pretty sure the French site is wrong.

Another thing that I saw when using the Fenix 7 versions and the Epix 2 in the simulatior, was that all these watches now have 256 kB available for datafields. That's an awful lot of memory. The Fenix 5 plus and Fenix 6 pro have 128 kB available. My largest datafield needs a bit more then 100 kB. If I double that, I wonder whether battery usage and overtaxing of the CPU (sluggishness) would become a problem.

Also, since the Fenix 5 plus watches the questions about memory optimization have become less on this forum, is my impression. In the days of the Fenix 3, with 16 kB available for datafields, it was really a struggle to be über efficient and get all functionality in without "out of memory" messages

thanks! I will let them know

For my parsing the files it seems like the fenix 7 (all of them) and the venu2 are the same in terms of memory which is also a step forward in making it easier to tell what device has how much memory:

remember that for all devices with CIQ2 or greater, the memory shown in the devices file is 4k more than what's available for apps.

also for devices with CIQ 4.0 or greater, the graphics pool will free up even more memory if things like bitmaps or custom fonts are used.  So if you look at watch face memory for the venu and venu2, you see much more on the venu, but the graphics pool is used with the venu2.

Hi,

I got a report from 2 users that minutes are not updating (or delayed) on EPIX2 in AOD mode. Did anyone have a similar issue?

Make sure they've updated to the latest fw.  The frw shipped on the devices could be a couple months old.

Garmin tends to fix all sorts of issues between manufacturing starting, and when they are released to the public.

Thanks! One user confirmed that it fixed the issue

hi everyone!

Do we have to do something more to get Glance view for System 4?

Everything works fine on the simulator but I was reported from an EPIX2 user that my widget does not show up on Glance List

(I have a F6Pro and it works fine on real

my code is:

class SHNBatteryApp extends Application.AppBase {


 ...


    	
    	(:glance)
    function getGlanceView(){
    	return [ new SHNGlanceView()];
    }

}




(:glance)
class SHNGlanceView extends Ui.GlanceView {



    function initialize() {
       GlanceView.initialize();
    }
    
    

    function onUpdate(dc) {
    
    ...


    }
    

}

While the Epix2 is running CIQ 4.0, so is the Venu2 and Venu2+.

The interesting thing with 4.x devices is that when you build a widget project, it's actually built as a device app - a "Super app" if it has a glance view.

In the glance loop, does anything show?  Maybe just the icon, maybe the icon with the basic AppName text?
