Great watchface! Few issues found on Fenix 3.

-Today's calories didn't capture calories burned from my swimming only walking and body metabolism.
- Missing the 4th day indicator in graph. They also are rendered in white as opposed to green as shown in the picture. Not sure if it is related or not.

-Screen Notifications come 2 seconds after vibration notifications. Not sure if that is Connect IQ limitations.

Have not gauged battery life objectively yet but feels like I am draining battery faster.

Other than that it's awesome.

Hi,

You are right, swimming is from some reason excluded from the data which are available to watchfaces.

To the 2nd point: This indicator marks days when you reached your daily steps goal. You can also check it in Menu - History - Steps. Triangles are white from version 1.7.3 for better visibility, I'll change the screenshot in the future :)

To the 3rd point: notifications and vibrations are not related to watchfaces. It's part of the device firmware.

Thank you for this Great Watchface.

Need a favor, have difficulty seeing the graph without my reading glasses. Is it possible to create a version with the trend graph replaced with bars (same info).

Thank you in advance

Hi,

sorry but I don't plan to make a port with bar graph. But there is something like that from other developer if you use watches with square screen - https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/419e6a65-f03f-4fb5-af80-cf580fda36c0 .

Elevation instead of distance

I realise how unwelcome having different versions may be, or how difficult it might be to make the app configurable, but for some of us, the mountain enthusiasts, _elevation_ is paramount. Much more than distance.
If there was a way to display daily elevation and have a weekly graph with total accumulated elevation, this is something we would enjoy very much...

In any case, thank you for your work and much appreciated Watchface!

Romain.

Hi, I see, but there is no way to get elevation data from watchface. The watchface API is very limited to avoid high battery consumption.

Small request

I am not sure if it is possible, but I would love to see an indicator to show if the alarm is set .

Thanks!

Petr.Koula over 9 years ago

Definitely, I'd like to add the alarm icon, but watchface API doesn't provide this information.

My favorite. I use it on Vivoactive and Epix.

Since the latest version the time numbers look kind of "fat" on epic. It looked more elegant before.

Hi, just loaded 1.7.4 onto Fenix3 but doesn't show battery % or Bluetooth icon,
Thanks,
Robin
