Garmin Watch Face App Online Builder

I just launched a Garmin device watch face app online builder. Garmin App Online Builder (joshuahxh.com)  It's still in beta testing stage.

I'm still trying to figure out how to compile the app in Linux.  In the meantime I'm just run a script to build the app once every seconds.  So please be patient to wait the app's download link after you upload your design.

Let me know if you experience any issues.  Thanks,

  • Don't leave!!!!!!!!!!!   I don't actually see what the issue is either!!  I see you app/site as a gateway to eventually learning how to do more and better later on down the line when I am on leave back home and suspect many others would see it in the same light.... I am puzzled by Jim's hostilities towards it...  I would have though he would see this as a good thing that could lead to better things..... Anyway No  need to leave...

  • Have you looked at any of the samples or project templates that are included in the SDK?

    I see this as something being done by someone with little or no experience with CIQ, that does little but confuse things.

  • Did you not read the part where I said I could not even get it working?? As to CIQ well I have not experience and yet I am not confused by the site/app and actually allowed me to produce a watchface with the features I want and my partner did the same within 15 minutes and sent me watchface to add.... This in someways is a PC version of FACEit app with advanced features  for those of us that need them.. Not all of us have the time and patience to do as you have done(which by the way are fantastic) but thats where you come in.. If we could all do as you do the store thing would  be flooded with 20 times more rubbish.. So please just look at what Josh has done as a PC faceit and nothing more..After all Face it still produces a Watchface that has no options to change same as the site does....

  • Get what working?  Are you a programmer?  Did you read the getting started info in the doc?  Use the SDK Manager to download the SDK and devices?

  • NO I am NOT a programmer... I could not get the SDK to load or run properly and to be honest the guides just confused me more so I gave in.... I don't have the time between Op's, Home and everything else to fault find and fix an sdk... 

  • Seems you lack a basic understanding if you can't even deal with the basics.  There are many thousands of apps in the store, some with millions of downloads  You may what to spend time there and find something you like..

  • Do you have an idea why the Weather condition icon is not shown on my device? I'm using Venu 2. It is strange because weather items work well on my other watch faces from Connect IQ store.

     

  • Found the bug and I think fixed it (I don't have that actual device, but it works in simulator).

  • It worked online, but did not on device. Anyway, thanks. I'll check it. Is there a way to get code on monkey c to tweak it after designing the mockup? 

  • @joshuahxh, What a fantastic online app! I was able to create a watch face through drag and drop and sideload it in minutes.  Setting up the SDK, Eclipse and whatnot was an exercize in frustration!  Keep at it - there's lots of people who appreciate you and your work!
