!!! IMPORTANT - PLEASE, RESTART YOUR WATCHES AFTER WATCHFACE UPDATE IF YOU HAVE SOME CONFIGURATION ISSUES !!!

Watch Face contains:
- Time and date
- activity history graph (past 7 days + today) in kCal and km/mi (or steps)
- maximum or sum or average kCals and km/mi (or steps)
- daily goal progress and step count
- custom fields
- status and notification icons
- inactivity indicator. Removing of inactivity levels is handled by the watch firmware, usually it takes about 3-4 minutes of walking.
- "goal reached" indicator in the week graph (small white triangle)

Supports 12/24 time format and km/mi.

    So the app has not yet created a new column, it's been over 24 hours. I only have one wide column, and the graph stretches from one side to the other in a straight line. What triggers the watch face to generate a next day table?
  • I just had my first crash this morning trying to get to Settings from the watchface. Not sure if it's caused by the watch face or not, but I had nothing else running. Is there log file somewhere I can check and perhaps troubleshoot it?


    Hi, sorry about that. Only Garmin developers team can check the error log because it's only list of physical memory address values. You can find it in the root of the watch. I'm using the same version for several days and with no crashes, so I hope there is no bug in the watchface code. Let me know if it occures again, and post me a log file content.

    It collects data for 2 days. First day it has only current data, not history, so it shows connection from 0,0 point to max,max point. Next day it has one history record and current data, so it shows connection from previous day max,max to the current max,max. Next day it will add another column, because 2 history records + today are three vertical lines = two columns. So wait another day and it will add it ;)

    In other words, it's working exactly how it's supposed too:cool:

    Awesome, thank you for your consistent feedback. It's really a great watchface you have created.

    Updated to most recent firmware. Sending watch face to device, launching express to install......and nothing.

    New 920XT user and a bit confused. Attempted to glean answers from the thread, but 6 pages is a bit much to sort through.

    Any assistance is greatly appreciated.
  • Have you set it to be your watchface in the 920 setting?

    Hopefully unrelated to this watch face. However I fully charged my Fenix3 last night. Installed actiface and awoke this morning to find battery on 30%. Weird as I have never seen battery drain like this before. Anyhow just reporting my experience here, in case anyone else sees similar behaviour with it installed.

    Ticka,

    I have been having the same issue, could be the latest firmware, but not sure, I disabled various non essential things during a run like GLOSNAS and such and I still after a forty minute run fulling charge lost 30% of the original charge.

    Like you I first noticed an oddity waking up with the watch fully discharged knowing it was still at 55% before sleeping.

    I removed the watch face went to normal and all seemed OK. Thinking it was just an anomaly and because I particularly like this watch face and the history component in particular reactivated it again and the same level of drain occurred.

    So yup any advice / ideas or whatever would be appreciated. But let me lastly say I think this particular developer is doing an amazing job and my issues are no slight 'whatsoever' a fix will surely happen. 'Keep up the amazing work'!!

    Hi, as you can see in the picture, the graph is always the same, except for the last column. I've just deleted all the avtivity, but In the history I noticed that in the Steps menu there still are steps of 18-th of March and other four or five days of february.
    Next saturday i had 30km with mi bike, it were showed on the watch just one day, but the next day the eatch showed again 25.15 km.

    Hi,

    I've met this issue several times from different 920xt users, but I'm affraid it's caused by some weird firmware bug when history of activity tracker has stuck and only today stats are updating. You have to reset activity tracker data or make all device reset. See the conversation with rbergin, he was solving the same issue.
