Not Updating

The watchface is great but the maximum kCal and km/mi is not updating anymore. It's just stuck to a single data. I hope you can have that fixed. I check everyday, it really does not update.

what happens when you're doing more miles than the maximum?
Did you checked for 7 days?

What do you mean by "what happens when you're doing more miles than the maximum?" :)

I checked after 7 days and every week. it doesn't really update.

Can you check your History > Steps and open each day from that list if you can find these stuck maximums there? Maybe your activity tracker has stuck at all and must be reset.

I did check on that now. It shows a different value for each day. It's not stuck to a maximum. I just tried to reset the total and reset all activities as well. I'll see if that helps. :D

Goals the watch face uses

Petr, great warchface, useful and looks good, too, thanks!
Question: wonder who and how sets the goals the watchface says you reached? Do I set it somewhere or does the watch sets them for me based on what it picks up of my performance?

Hi, you can set your goal via Garmin Connect or GC Mobile (in Fitness > Steps) to the constant value or automatic ( which will adjust the goal according to your previous days).

Please, be patient, the new version is around the corner and then you'll be able to customize the watchface including the color. Now I've to primarily adjust ActiFace for new devices and new display dimensions (what seems to be harder than I expected :) )

Can you please indicate (or point me to the particular thread; I just found the announcement of CIQ 1.1.4) when the new CIQ version (what will be the new feature set?) will be made publicly available?
Am I right that a new CIQ version will also require a new firmware udate on watch (vivoactive in my case) side in order to reflect the feature changes?

The Connect IQ 1.2 will be available in late September and you are right, it'll require the new firmware version, as well as new version of Garmin Connect Mobile and Garmin Express.
