    You can find standard data, configurable and PREMIUM data fields.

    If you will have any issues please contact me directly and I will try to help you first before you leave negative comment or lower rating.

    Watchface was tested in simulator without problems also on Vivoactive HR & Fenix 5 - if you have problems you should try: check if you have free space, reinstall WF, reboot watches.. contact Garmin support ;-)

    Try normal version before you ask for PREMIUM DATA UNLOCK:
    Premium additional data - Heart rate, Altitude, Battery & Notification count jus

  • Nice work - but problem with sunrise/sunset and daylight savings time

    Nice work; visually very appealing :-)

    But it seems sunrise and sunset times don't account for daylight saving time and thus are currently one hour early for me.

    Additionally I would appreciate an indicator icon for pending alarms.

    Hello, thanks for feedback.
    Sunset / Sunrise algorithm is ok to show correct Sunrise/Sunset on your watch you need to update your GPS location.
    For example you need to start activity with GPS - running, wait for GPS and you can discard it. It should work.
  • its not appearing in the IQ side of my forerunner 235

    After choosing the watchface and syncronizing with my FR235 I can not select it in the menue of my watch.
    Also other watch faces are not visible any more?!
    I am not sure if its your app or the watch itself which is not compartible?
    Thanks for your help!
