Watchface link: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/7ef071c3-4a14-4eb3-aca9-e3a531262711

!!! 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.

Configuration
------------------------

ActiFace can be configured via Garmin Connect Mobile or Garmin Express.

    Idea

    Would it be Possible to Add the color name to the app?

    I would like to install the Blue and the Red Face and then change up according to the Band I am Wearing
    at this point the red overwrites the Blue and so on..

    sounds stupid, would be cool I think......

    Unfortunately I can't change the name. The equal name has one purpose to the future. Next versions of the Connect IQ will allow watch face settings via Garmin Connect mobile application and ActiFace color will be configurable. In that time I'll remove ActiFace Red from the Store and there'll be just one version, just ActiFace.

    Artifice Blue -- Red 'zzzz' bubble?

    I can't figure out what this red 'zzzz' bubble is. Is it a lazy meter? Is there a way to turn it off? I did a 40 mile ride today and now I have this big long red bubble with 'zzzzzz' on the front of the face. It would be great to have an 'off' option.

    You're right, that's inactivity indicator. It's just an alternative to the red line with arrows from default watch face. It's always on if you have an activity tracker enabled. But you'll not have data for ActiFace if you disable the activity tracker, it's based on these data.

    flashing zzzzz

    Hello, first I want to say that I love this Watch Face.
    But also have a small question, it is possible to let the small Z flash when you start to move again? (Just as in the original Face)

    It's little complicated becauce a custom watchface is refreshed once per minute if you don't make a special wrist movement which can switch the refresh period from 60s to 1s, but only for 6 seconds. Moreover, an inactivity level is increased step-by-step but oposite direction is just a jump from max to min. In other words, I don't have an information from CIQ API that you started with a walking. Yes, I can count step increments, but these can be reset when you switch to another screen from the watchface.

    Proposal

    Unfortunately, watchfaces cannot access sport activities, just Activity tracker data.

    Question to graph

    Hi
    I really like you watchface but even after 4 weeks of using it, I didn't get what the graph is shown

    What I understood is, on the right side I see the actual day
    the red is showing kC
    and the white line is show km? not steps? how are these km calculated

    Here is a picture of my watch.
    e.g. Yesterday
    At (3) I have a peak, but I just did 5000steps, and no triangle below, but I did some cycling activities
    the same at (1),

    Does the graph shows steps and km from other activities like cycling?
    I think it would make more sense, just to show the history of steps instead of mixed km
