Watchface: Glance

NEWS UPDATE:

With introduction of Garmin Pay, I am starting to add a new payment option for some of my apps. The system is not flexible enough to just add Garmin Pay to existing apps, so I'll publish a copy of an app, with the same functionality but Garmin Pay as the payment provider.

The first one out is Glance Ultra (a copy of Glance Dual Screen):

EASY Round - 2023 #1 watch face of the year (by Garmin):

EASY Round

GLANCE WATCH FACE app won THE BEST NEW WATCH FACE APP OF 2022 ! At the Developers conference Garmin announced nominees and winners for the best apps in different categories. Glance Watch Face was nominated and won in the best new watch face category Slight smile! Garmin didn't post the video from the conference yet, but it was already reported by other websites: https://the5krunner.com/2022/10/12/garmin-app-watchface-of-the-year-2022-ciq-winners-and-nominees-announced/

The idea for this app is simple:
- Use only large fonts, so that all data are visible at a glance (hence the name of the app: Glance   )
- Put as much data on the screen as possible, without sacrificing font size above
- Make all data fields customizeable to your needs
- Make colors customizeable as much as possible, so users can create their own design

The "Glance Watch Face" app is 100% FREE - no hidden restrictions, nagging, or expiration:

There is also a mostly free app - BIG EASY: apps.garmin.com/.../86ec352b-da01-4806-8972-770c6d32a5e8

There are also two paid versions of this app - "Glance Pro":

https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/ac4be3ce-f0f3-4c49-be01-5fa52614ab2b

and "Glance Dual Screen":

https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/5c0fe72b-f045-4366-a878-d3e67c600868

Paid versions are identical to the free version (so no worries, FREE doesn't mean bad!), but have a lot of extra features features:

  • Open Weather Map support
  • Setting for TIME font weight
  • New way to use shared color themes
  • Support for many new metrics (like Body Battery, Stress Level, and lots more)
  • Extra progress bars and Graphs (in Dual Screen only)
  • Two separate data screens (in Dual Screen only) 
  • A lot more - see apps description for the full list
  • You have an opportunity (and a small incentive) to support the development Slight smile

Unique feature of the Glance apps - you can save your own Color Themes and quicly switch between them righ on the watch.

NEW: Now you can SHARE your Color Theme! You can also quickly apply Color Themes shared with you. Here is a full description of how it all works: https://www.mobiledriveway.com/glance.html#color

Here is the current Color Themes Gallery: https://www.mobiledriveway.com/glance_gallery.html

Color themes are compatible between "Glance" and "Glance Pro" (except for "inactive status icons color", which became obsolete in "Pro").

I'd love to see all color combinations you came up with. Please post your themes in the Reviews and I'll add them to the gallery!

Questions and suggestions are welcome!

    I have another question about the date.
    In the pictures of the IQ watch face, the day of the week is displayed with three digits.
    So, Thursday is THU.
    I use the German language for the date.
    But for me, the day of the week is only displayed with two digits - Thursday is just TH.
    Can I change it to three digits in German, or is that not possible due to the system?

    Short day name in local language is provided by Garmin, not the app. And I don't want to write my own translation for 40+ languages that Garmin supports, so, at the moment, it can't be changed for you.

    Thank you very much.
    That's exactly what I thought.

    Hi, I previously purchased the Glance Pro, but it didn’t carry over when the Connect IQ store was updated. Is it possible to have the activation code resent to me? Thanks!

    Hello, I have an issue where if I set the screen timeout to 15 seconds in the watch settings, the screen dims slightly after 10 seconds of use, and touching it doesn't increase the brightness. This problem doesn't occur with 8-second or 4-second timeout settings. glance ultra watch face, garmine forerunner 165

    Glance Ultra on Fenix 6pro. Simply the best!!!

    Here's an idea: middle top bar and middle bottom bar.

    Now they rise from left to right.

    E.g. 30%: ***------. 80%: *****---.

    How about symmetrically from the centre outwards?

    E.g. 30%: ---***---. 80%: -*******-

    Like the "magic eye" on grandfather's radio in the past.

    **

    And does anyone know why the gesture control (second screen) only works sporadically? It works for a few minutes and then stops working. Only when you perform an action on the watch again does it work again. The power saving mode is "off". Is there still a power-saving mode for the motion sensor?

    Regards,

    Michael

    Hi, I'd like to upgrade from my free version but I'm worried that all my settings will disappear when installing the new watchface. Will this happen?

    Hi developer. I'd like to upgrade my free version of GLANCE but I'm worried that all my settings will disappear if I download the new watchface. Will that happen or will my watchface stay the same?

    Hello! First of all, thank you for making such a beautiful watch face (Glance)!

    I have a couple of questions about Glance Pro / Ultra. Do they support "next calendar event" type of a complication? What about UV index? If not, is there any plans on supporting the calendar one? I find knowing when my next scheduled event is one of the best uses for a complication, something you can see just by glancing at your watch.
