I like this watchface a lot and use it exclusively. Simple clean and easy to read. Good job.

Is it possible to show if the watch thinks your asleep on the watchface?

Seems to be a bit…

Hi, thanks for your interest and posting your question here.

I fully get you regarding the need to have peace and a calm experience when using your watch.

Unfortunately the background blending option is…

I love this watch face but I am having an issue with the step goal. I have my goal set at 10000 steps but No Frills shows 9250. If I switch back to the stock watch face it shows the step goal correctly.

Any ideas?? Watch is a Forerunner 235 with the latest firmware. I believe it's 7.10.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Sam,

This is the first I've heard of this type of issue.
Can you please check what happens after you reboot your watch? (full power cycle)

Hi HermoT

I want to explain the problem that I have with your last update, the watch VivoActive HR:

- After installing everything looks Ok
- After making some changes with my mobile (water mark (steps fill) out + change steps by altitude and kcalories + change date format):

1) the bluetooth fails, my mobile can not find the watch
2) the watch doesn't respond to the buttons and no tactil available, it is dead.
3) pressing the 2 buttons at the same time during 10 seconds the watch makes a reset but never gets on again, it is dead.
4) plugged to the PC makes nothing
5) plugged to the charger: after 5-7 minutes my mobile detects the watch and in this moment I can delete your app. If I don't delete it and disconect the charger, the watch continues dead.

I make this transitions 3 times with the same results everytime.

I install your app with my mobile, no with pc.

I have the last firmware.

I hope you can help me in this matter.

Hi!

Sorry for the late reply.
Unfortunately I am not planning to add this.

I give priority to performance, low memory and low battery consumption. The watch face is already maxed out in terms of configurable options, and to make this configurable is unfortunately going to add overhead to the watch face with a negative impact on speed and battery consumption.

It is all about maintaining a balance that gives everyone the best experience possible.

I will however put it in the backlog for the future when technology improves and devices become more powerful.

Regards,

Heart rate no displayed Fenix 3 HR

Hi

I have downloaded and installed the no frills face - really like it so far, but I am not seeing the heart rate on the face? I have the heart rate box ticked in the no frills settings on my phone, so I am not sure why it's not displayed? Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Can you please see if rebooting the device solves it?

Hi,

Great watch face, used it for most of the time that I had a Fenix 3 HR. I've just updated to a Fenix 5X and the heart rate info doesn't show on the watchface. I've tried rebooting and that made no difference.

Thanks.

Another user who reported the exact same issue said it started working again after he upgraded the firmware.
What is your current firmware version?
