Discussion. Suggestions? Bugs?
  • It doesn't happen all the time. I didn't have any restarts when I was doing short tests in my office :) All restarts after a long activity (either run or walk).

    Here's one more guy (making already three of us) who got a restart and was using Digic watchface too: https://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?342739-Watch-restart-on-quot-Resume-later-quot&p=807173#post807173

    Great looking watch face ..

    I'm brand new to this. Don't have my watch yet. Should receive a Tactix Bravo at the end of the month. Will this face be compatible with my watch? I didn't see it listed. Thanks.

  • Regading the watch restart after Resume: I'm the third guy :-) I had this behaviour 4 weeks ago with the beta versions of the firmware. I could replicate it nearly every time. After switching to one of the built-in watchfaces the watch didn't restart anymore. I had contact with the fenix beta team, they got a complete memory dump and all the files from the fenix from me, because they wanted to look at this behaviour.
    Since 6.80 It doesn't happen anymore here.

    I think that it has something to do with a firmware bug using IQ Watchfaces and Validimir can't do anything...it must be a firmware problem.

    History Bar graph

    for a long time I was using a Pilot with UTC watch face, until I came across this one ages ago. Thank you, it's great.
    I don't think that it needs many additions at all and is clean the way it is. Certainly doesn't need a move bar, the watch
    tells you to get off your butt.

    I do have a suggestion, how hard would it be to add colour to the graph days, so red when your well below its projected target,
    then orange when you get to a certain percentage, possibly 70% of the target then of course green when you reach..

    Just an idea, though it would make the History bar look great.

    Many thanks, and again, awesome work,
    for the record, the set up and changing of fields is fine, people just need to have a decent look at their options ;)

    A few bugs I noticed in the last few days:
    - row 4 does not work at all
    - seconds and move bar turn the watch into a blank screen
    - 7 day history is now one day history

    I am having exactly same issue when doing resume later with Digic Watch. When using build in watch face no issues. Currently on a 6.82b FW.

    Just got a new fenix 3 sapphire and this is my ONLY watchface. Awesome and Thank you for your fine development.

    The only issue I have ran into is the Bluetooth showing as "off" which as I understand is not the fault of your app. The addition of the move-bar is greatly appreciated.

    Potential ideas:
    rename "Phone" to "Blue" - I just don't like the word "phone" on my watch (preference only) but I understand your reasoning for shorting the word. This is really just nip-picking because your app is so good ;)

    Help please...?

    I have a D2 Pilot Bravo (Current OS 2.70 & IQ 1.2.1) and when I install this digic watch face regardless via my IOS or Garmin Express (MAC cpu); the watch face is essentially blank and then only shows the time in big font, but nothing else at all shows in the watch face.

    I've accomplished the settings and saved and I'm sure it's user error on my part, so can anyone please advise on how to have this Great watch face function accordingly?

    Thank you in Advance!

  • It might not be Digic related but still.. Fixed in Fenix 3 6.84beta.

    Fixed a potential issue where the watch would crash while using the 'Resume Later' option.
  • Is there anyway you could please add "Steps Until Goal" counterdown?
    it was a normal feature on the Vivofit and can't find a simple way to display it.

    Thank you Pep
