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

You can donate the ActiFace development via PayPal here: http://bit.ly/1RoLv4i

!!! 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.
Here is how to do it: https://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?332843-How-to-App-Settings

- Inverted mode (white background)
- Graph description - values above the graph - week maximums, sums or averages
- White line - switch between daily steps and distance for the white line graph
- Color graph style - switch between curve graph and bar graph
- Custom fields types (differs between models):
* UTC (with TZ offset)
* UTC24 (with TZ offset, always 24H format)
* steps
* distance
* calories
* goal percentage
* heart rate
* altitude
* week goal percentage (counted all step goals and steps from the beginning of the week)

* week calories average (counted from the beginning of the week without today)
* sunrise/sunset times

    It will stay with you forever once you downloaded it.

    Sorry, just kidding:) You have to select another face in the watch settings, then you will be able to remove it in GCM or GE.

    Garmiin 235

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install this on my forerunner 235, but it says "This app requires an update of your Forerunner 235. Please use Garmin Express to update your Forerunner 235."
    The device is up to date.
    What should I do?

    Thanks

    fenix 3 HR - no go either

    Same problem with a new fenix 3 HR which I just got and which was automatically updated to version 4.20 firmware and get a similar message:

    "This app requires an update of your fenix 3 HR. Please use Garmin Express to update your fenix 3 HR."

    Also able to download other watch faces.

    Maybe your code looks for a version of the firmware lower than 4.20 or maybe you'd have to update to new SDK 2.2.2 ... too new for me to know yet.

    It's a case where the app store doesn't know you're FW has been updated, and can happen with new watches, where the were set up using the FW installed at the factory, but then updated to the newest FW soon after that. The version checking is performed in the app store, and not in any of the apps.

    Here's a thread with details, things to try, and on the last page is what Garmin suggested.

    After trying these things, it make not work right away so give it a few minutes.

    What is all this?

    Forerunner 735XT here. Just installed Actiface which I think i'll like but i'm not sure what i'm looking at in all the data. Is there an example for this watch somewhere?

    Specifically I don't know what the blue/grey and red vertical lines along the left side of hte display are supposed to represent..?

    Thanks!

    White line issue

    I love this watch face. My only problem is switching the white line on the graph from Distance to Steps. I have switched it in Garmin Express, saved and synced, but as soon as I disconnect my watch, it goes back to showing distance. I have restarted my watch with no change. Any ideas on how to fix this? Please Help!!
