Version 0.13 released.

Reduced memory footprint
Added seconds display (NB : The 920 firmware doesn't currently support the exit low power mode for custom watch faces so the seconds display only works for the vivoActive. As soon as Garmin add this feature to the 920 firmware then seconds will show.)
Layout /cosmetic tweaks
- Activity move bar segments weren't equal
- Activity move bar design better
- Text right aligned on screen
- Text spaced horizontally evenly
Date formatting change
AM/PM now blue
Added icons for bluetooth and alarm (ready for when Garmin add to firmware) so not available yet
Tones and vibrate icons working! (NB : Garmin tell me they have fixed this in the next 920 firmware upgrade.)

Updated to version 13 when you released it and while connected by USB the watch started charging. When I unplugged it ticked up to 71%. Now 2.5 hours later the watch shows 73% haha. I'll keep an eye on it, but wanted to post for others to watch on this new version, just in case it's a bug.
Otherwise, I do like this better than 12a

Ok it went back to 71% so seems to have corrected

Thinking perhaps the little icons should be dark grey if off and white if one. What do people think?

Yup! Good idea.

How does one upgrade when a new version comes out...just download it again or what?

Thanks,

How do you delete? Was trying to figure that out the other day.

Garmin Express - remove it and put it on the watch again.

Garmin Express - remove it and put it on the watch again.

Again, HOW do you delete it exactly. I cannot figure it out. I do not see a delete button...I've gone into the internal storage of the phone and do not see it to delete it. So, can somebody tell me exactly how to delete/remove it?

Thank you,
Tim

There isn't any more room for larger seconds in the space without making the hours and minutes smaller. The seconds are a bonus ;-)

Tones and vibrate icons and seconds now working! You just need to upgrade your 920 to the latest beta firmware (303).

Least we have a slight idea of the additional "improvements" in the firmware..
