Connect IQ Settings in a App (not Data Field/Watch Face)

Hi,

I've used the Property Settings in Data Fields before, but wondered if they work with Apps? I have a complex adhoc data input, which would be easier via a Setting, than in the App UI. So wondered if it would be possible to used the same techniques as used for Data Fields.

Thanks
Chris

Yes, definitely. :) In fact, properties and settings are available for use in all Connect IQ app types.

Like Brandon said, all app types (including the new music apps in 3.0!). One thing to also look at is also the new Menu2 in 3.0. as it allows easily setting a few things on the device itself, with toggles, icons, changeable sub labels, etc. I've used Menu for some common things in a few of my apps all along (changing the background from black to white for example), but Menu2 makes it cleaner/easier, so maybe consider splitting a few things between app settings and the device itself.
