SMS App

scholarsgate over 3 years ago

I've spend the last few weeks creating an SMS App for my Fenix 6 and companion app for Android.

The companion app allows you to select the contacts and define the canned messages that will appear on your device.

Here is are the screens from the companion app.

And here are the watch screens

If there is enough interest I might release it for people to download.

Bit late to the party, would you be willing to upload it with vivoactive 3 support?

I'll look into it and see what I can do.

Sorry for the radio silence. While testing this app on different Garmin devices I discovered there were some significant bugs when using devices with touch screens. I've had to rewrite about 75% of the Garmin app. I now need to test the Android side of things.

Thanks for your patience...

I'm not going to be able to make this work on 5.1.1. The companion app requires the Garmin connect app to talk to the watch. Minimum version for Garmin Connect is Android 6.0.

Ah ok, also sorry for the late reply. I also have an iOS device, I’m guessing it’s not possible though with those due to the more secure ways of apple.
